Beautifully restored house in the midst of quiet countryside with a wonderful, well appointed kitchen. The property is ideal for relaxing and destressing and can easily accommodate a group. It is a little remote. Jeff, the property manager, was so helpful providing information on the house and environs.

This home is amazing! It's nestled in a beautiful area of upstate NY. There is a flowing creek, a pond and incredible foliage. The home has been so well preserved with modern touches and the owner's eclectic decorations. The kitchen and side patio made for a relaxing morning! We were there for our son's All Star Village tournament. This home allows you to be away from the chaos with a short 25 minute drive through the winding roads of NY. It was the perfect spot for us! We can't wait to visit again. (The king beds are incredibly comfy!)

Wonderful trip!!

I can't say enough about our stay at the Bear Hill Farm! The house is immaculate and stylish, the grounds are beautiful, and the local caretaker is so nice and helpful. Our family had a lovely time, we wished we could have stayed longer! We definitely plan to stay here again in the future.

Our weekend stay at this beautiful country house was nothing short of perfect. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home. The house itself is stunning—charming, spacious, and impeccably clean, with a perfect blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort.

Perfect for weekend visit with friends

Bear Hill Farm is charming! Beautiful setting, lots of cool things in the house to look at at and enjoy (books, puzzles, well stocked with cooking tools). The grounds are special, beautiful lighting at night, a GREAT fire pit. Very nice to have a friendly caretaker nearby. Area scenery is breathtaking especially this time of year (early fall). Owner gives a fantastic guide to the property and area. One of the best vacation rentals I've experienced!

Peace at BHF

Loved everything about BHF. Jeff & Jeff both made me feel welcome and genuinely interested in my stay. Driving to and from Oneonta to watch baseball was beautiful and peaceful. The house is fabulous and cozy. Planning a return visit in the near future. Highly recommend. Thanks.

David, we're glad you and your son had a great All Star stay. We are genuinely interested in ALL our guests stays! Yours especially because of the nearby roadwork that day and possible detour that you would have to take on the way to the ballfields. We didn't want you to get lost and miss any of the action at ASV! Looking forward to seeing you again. Thx again for your visit.

A Gem in the Catskills!

We rented Bear Hill Farm for a reunion weekend in nearby Oneonta. We wanted a place to escape from the organized activities with the mob. The house is a delight: wide plank floors, large bedrooms and bathrooms, and the most well-stocked kitchen we have ever seen. It was truly a joy to cook in this kitchen and to dine on the gorgeous glasstop table. Lots of great spaces for reading, conversing, andenjoying the garden views.

Great place for a Catskills getaway.

This was our third visit to this house and another great stay. This time we hit it in peak fall leaf season and the natural beauty everywhere was incredible: We enjoyed many long walks, lounged by the waterfalls and cooked great meals on the grills. We appreciated the new king size bed in the master, the home made strawberry rhubarb jam was both thoughtful and delicious and Jeff and Jeff were great hosts again. If you are looking for a great getaway in a beautiful historic home in a peaceful setting look no further. Thanks again Jeff and Jeff.

Lovely farmhouse!

We stayed at Bear Hill Farm in late June while our son’s team played baseball at Cooperstown All Star Village. We had an amazing week! The home was absolutely lovely, exactly as advertised in the photos. Comfortable, clean, artsy, woodsy, and full of antique charm, all while being very roomy and modernized. We felt lucky to have found this charmer! Host and caretaker were both very attentive and sweet. Thank you!!

Great quiet getaway

This house is amazing. Built in the 1850s it is a very cute home! The neighborhood is amazing and quiet. Plenty of space outside to play and entertain. The home is occupied and lived in so there are plenty of amenities in the home. Unfortunately there is no washer and dryer, so that would be the only downfall of the property. Jeff, the house assistant was very nice and accommodating when we showed up and before we left. I would highly recommend staying here to my friends and family.

Thanks for your kind words Scott and we’re glad you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately our laundry is in our 1850 basement which is not nearly as charming as the rest of our old farmhouse and is not accessible. Luckily there’s a great same day wash and fold in town should you need a midweek wash next time you visit. Hope to see you again soon.

Awesome stay!

My parents, fiance, my doggies and I stayed at Jeff's Bear hill farm for the weekend, the pictures and the reviewed do not do it justice, the house is amazing, not only cozy but modern and we'll equipped. Jeff (the owner) is great! Attentive, helpful and always available for questions. Jeff (the caretaker) was so very nice, we would of loved to spend more time with him. The weekend was just awesome, my parents lived it so much they didn't want to really leave the house, we can't wait to book with Jeff again and for a longer stay, thank you so much Jeff & Jeff! We highly recommend this to anyone looking for a great, beautiful and spacious home, our dogs loved running around and warming up by the fire. Loved it!!

cozy, stylish, and felt like home!

Jeff allowed my family and I to stay during my brothers wedding at a nearby venue. We wanted a place that was rustic, charming, and celebrated the local landscape while being stylish, comfortable, and large enough for us to hang out and entertain... I cannot tell you how happy we were when we arrived to find that the house not only checked every box on our must have list, it went above and beyond. a welcome note and gift when we arrived, modern comfort in a rustic retreat. As a designer by trade, the vintage finds mixed with modern decor sent my heart a flutter. the house was clean and well maintained from the inside out offering cozy nooks to relax in and read, sip coffee, or listen to the babbling stream. Jeff followed up with us quickly before, during and after our stay like any true homeowner who is proud of their home would. I cannot wait to come back and stay again!

Kenneth, so glad we could provide you and your family with a cozy retreat to relax at on your brother's wedding weekend. And what better validation for all the work we put into our reno than the stamp of approval from a designer at a company like yours! We hope to see you again soon so you can try a different season.

Charming but old…

Just like the listing said, it is a very charming farmhouse on beautiful grounds. The kitchen was nicely redone with modern appliances. But the interior designing was not to my taste, very old, mix matched styles throughout. My biggest concern was the main bathroom’s walls. The wall paper is completely peeling off, exposing the wood walls. The old paper pictures taped on with painters tape was also peeling off and very poorly done. The stairs are also steep with short steps. The interior could definitely use some upgrades to modernize the charming farmhouse.

We're glad that like everyone you found our farmhouse charming and enjoyed our grounds at the peak of their summer beauty. We painstakingly rehabbed our home to preserve the 173 year old history and charm, including the historical wallpaper found during the process. Some modern amenities were added, but architecturally we preserved the bones. As shown in the pictures, we think it is part of the charm!

Bearhill Farm ❤

Bearhill Farm is a little slice of heaven. Nestled in the mountains and situated on your own private arboretum with a babbling brook and waterfalls -- this is the place to relax and find inner peace. The house is well appointed, cozy, rustic, artsy and modern all at the same time. Beautiful kitchen -- Jeff left us a welcoming bottle of Prosecco and homemade mint jelly -- and views to die for of the beautiful yard. We enjoyed our coffee on the porch every morning. Even though it rained one day, it was still romantic to sit on the porch and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Jeff the owner and Jeff the Caretaker made sure our stay was perfect from check-in to check-out. The bed was comfortable and the sheets and blanket were soft and luxurious. I really cannot say enough good things about this special home. We definitely want to come back!! Thank you, Jeff ❤
