Perfect getaway

The house was very clean and inviting. My family found it the perfect place to unwind between our son's games at Dreams Park. It was an easy, quick ride into town and the baseball fields. We loved the views, seclusion, and coziness. The pictures do not do it justice as the living room, dining room, kitchen, and bedrooms all are perfect sized for a family to live in a home away from home. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Perfect stay for Cooperstown Dreams Park

15-20 min drive from the park, which is pretty close compared to some rentals for the tourney. Great little renovated house. Good AC, which was perfect for the heat wave we experienced. Great WiFi. No phone service, so WiFi was important. Very close to downtown Cooperstown. Very clear instructions. We’d definitely stay again!

Fantastic property near Cooperstown

We stayed at this great home while our son was playing at Cooperstown Dreams Park. I would highly recommend this property for anyone wanting a quiet stay after a day of baseball or just a Cooperstown vacation. It is an easy 15 minute drive to Dreams Park and 10 minutes to downtown Cooperstown. The owner Glenn was a highly responsive host, and the home was much larger than it appeared in the photos. Very clean and comfortable home, we would definitely stay here again!

Baseball Tournament

Stayed here for a baseball tournament in Cooperstown. Great house, had everything we needed, especially as the weather was rainy and several games were canceled. The beds were a little hard but otherwise a great time! Would stay here again! Adding an outdoor fire pit and outdoor seating would be a nice touch!

Quiet and spacious. Close to Cooperstown to visit Baseball Hall of Fame. Minor hiccup accessing the property as the lock box code given to me was incorrect. However, the owner responded promptly with the correct code. We stayed three nights and would stay again if the need arises.

Visit to the Baseball Hall of Fame

Nice place, close to Cooperstown (~10 min). Very quiet- there are no other houses nearby. Decent size, perfect for our family of four (and could fit 6 comfortably). Has all the amenities that you'll need (although, make sure to bring your own hand soap). The majority of the house was actually very clean (table, counters, sinks, toilet), but the carpets/ floors were a little dirty (hadn't been vacuumed/ mopped). Overall, great stay!

Cabin with hunting trophies

The cabin was clean, and somewhat updated. There were deer heads and antlers in the living spaces, that did not show on the property listing. There is no cell service at the cabin. Once my husband and children were over the fact of the lacking cell service and the extra furry friends, the stay was smooth sailing. There is a great selection of dishes and pans.

Relaxing retreat

This was a beautiful and serene escape from a few long days. We stayed here while our son was at Cooperstown. We happened to visit the week of a heat wave. Of all the places we visited, our place was by far the coolest! Thank you for having cool A/C! Glenn was a phenomenal host. We also appreciated the book full of information, directions, etc., very thoughtful because many places do not do this. For those of you staying at Cooperstown this house is about 15-20 minutes and trust me when I say it is so worth it! We saw deer and turkey at each turn. Thank you for opening your home to us!

Great secluded location that we enjoyed between game times and days while out for dreams park tournament trip. Short 20 min drive from the parking lot to this house. No cell coverage but they do have wifi internet over satellite so if you are needing batter data or have more than one or two people on it at a time it can get a bit laggy.

About the host

Hosted by GLENN KELLER

Host profile image
I live fulltime in northern New Jersey. This property has been in my family since 1957, when my grandmother purchased it. I have been spending time up in Cooperstown all my life. Since taking over the property in 1997, I rebuilt the farmhouse (which was originally built over 150 years ago), which was a two-story summer home for the mayor of Cooperstown during the 1920's. The house has survived a couple fires since then and I am happy to say that through my efforts I have given the place a new beginning.

Being a host has become a passion for me. I have been renting out the place during the summers since 2004. Renting gives me the opportunity to keep the place up-to-date and provides vacationers the opportunity to share in a piece of American history and to take pleasure in the tranquility of the place.

I love spending time up at my place during the offseason, whether to cut firewood for the winter, to go hunting, pick wild blackberries, or to pick apples for cider in September. There is nothing as good as fresh squeezed apple cider, and the hard cider that I make isn't bad either!

Why they chose this property

Middlefield is a quaint little town just outside of Cooperstown. Having family nearby on the next farm provides another reason for me to stay connected to my family's roots. Zubowich Road was named for my late uncle, Stanley Zubowich.

What makes this property unique

My place is unique in that it has over 10,000 feet of maintained logging trails, and a beaver dam which is perfect for those who like to take nature walks.

Through my forestry management efforts as the steward of the forest, I have been taking steps to improve the biodiversity of the forest by planting white oak and black walnut seedlings. In a couple years, my plan is to graft an edible, fast-growing Chandler walnut onto the black walnut seed stocks, which will eventually yield over 200 pounds of walnuts per tree.

I began to actively manage the forest through Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) activities beginning in 2004. During 2026 the entire property will get logged, which encourages new growth by opening up the forest canopy. One day, when I pass the property on to my heirs, my goal is to leave a forest which is in better condition than when I first took it over.
