Whether you are seeking quiet reflection or outdoor adventure, this fabulous cottage offers the perfect, peaceful escape from the everyday. The estate’s owner is a descendant of Hall of Fame inductee ‘Big Dan’ Brouthers, a renowned baseball long-ball hitter (1879-1904).

The Estate & Wildlife The cottage is one of three private residential properties located on the beautiful Toad Hall Estate, which also features active horse stables. While you enjoy your own private accommodations, the true magic lies just beyond your front door.
Start your day with a morning run or a relaxing walk through pristine woodlands, expansive pastures, and along Oaks Creek. The property is a haven for local wildlife; guests can enjoy the peaceful sight of horses and cattle grazing in the fields, deer emerging at dusk, beavers building dams, and geese, herons, and majestic eagles soaring over the ponds.
Guest Access & Amenities During your stay, you will have access to incredible shared estate amenities:
The Pool: Take a cooling dip in the shared, seasonal saltwater pool.
The Trails & Grounds: Explore miles of extensive private hiking trails and prime fishing spots.
Peace & Privacy: Because the estate properties have distinct layouts and schedules, guests rarely cross paths, ensuring a deeply relaxing and private experience. On-site maintenance workers routinely tend to the grounds and pool to keep the estate in pristine order.
Note: As this is an active estate with multiple residents and horse stables, we kindly ask guests to exercise caution and care when approaching any of the animals. Make your holiday one for the books. Book your ultimate Fly Creek retreat today!

Why they chose this property
Fly Creek, NY, is a charming, historic hamlet just a few miles from main street Cooperstown. It is best known for the award-winning, water-powered Fly Creek Cider Mill & Orchard and its surprisingly pivotal role in baseball history, and its scenic, rural tranquility. Fly Creek is also 3-6 miles from great restaurants, Dreams Park and other attractions. The hamlet has a direct connection to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The original "Abner Doubleday Baseball"—the tattered, handwritten ball that provided the spark to establish the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown—was discovered hidden in the attic of a local Fly Creek farmhouse in 1935.
