About this property
Luxury lakefront home in Cooperstown with private dock/deck +16' trampoline/raft
Summertime Hill is a 5 bedroom 3 bath restored Victorian house on Lake Otsego with a porch, private dock, deck, 16' TRAMPOLINE/RAFT, and room for a boat or kayak (which you can rent right down the lake at Sam Smiths). For the chef in your family, it has a great kitchen and grill. Professionally decorated and featured in an 8-page Good Housekeeping photo spread and article, where Summertime Hill was described as "one of the most beautiful and romantic accommodations in the Cooperstown area".
Surrounded by hills, Lake Otsego is the largest, cleanest, most scenic lake in the area. Often referred to as "Glimmerglass" (as coined by James Fenimore Cooper) our lake shimmers and sparkles in the light of the changing skies reflecting off of the limestone floor of the lake. Views aew especially breathtaking at sunrise and sunset. The water is crystal clear and pristine – perfect for swimming, fishing and boating.....AND bouncing on the TRAMPOLINE! Fall is equally fantastic, with some of the best foliage in New England.
In the 5 bedrooms are 3 queen beds, one double. and 2 designer twin beds in a fun and cozy room with a beamed ceiling, its own AC, and state-of-the-art washer/drier in slate The room with a double bed has its own private bath. From all 3 queens, you can see the sun and moon rise on the lake while lying in bed!. Among the many amenities are central A/C with dehumidifier, Jacuzzi tub, stainless appliances in the kitchen, a professional LaCanche stove, a Weber grill, real china, fine glasses, Italian sheets, incredibly comfortable glider/rockers and beds, high speed internet, and a 42” flat-screen TV with DVR/DVD/ROKU.
The long porch has a table for four, 2 extra chairs, 2 rockers, and a swing....all of which are fantastic for relaxing with a good book, while enjoying the fantastic views of the lake!
A few days in this bucolic setting, looking out on this truly spectacular lake will relax, rest and energize you...and you may never want to leave!

About the host
Hosted by Richard Scurry
My name is Kristina, and I am the rental agent for Summertime Hill. The owners live in Charleston SC but love Cooperstown so much that they spend 4 months here every summer.
Why they chose this property
We bought this property because we fell in love with Lake Otsego - the beauty of the hills on all sides, the shimmering surface of the water, the lack of development (much of the land around it is owned by a foundation) and then our whole family loves to waterski. We also loved the house itself - built over 100 years ago, with a solidity modern houses don't have, with windows low enough to see the lake from a chair or bed, and a wonderful warm feel to it that warms one's heart.
What makes this property unique
Spectacular views of the lake while eating on the porch or reading a book in the wicker swing or in a rocker.
You can eat in the dining room, breakfast room, on the porch, or down at the lake on the raised platform deck.
The interior is stunningly beautiful, with the interior design by the owner's wife, Pam - a world class designer, nationally recognized for her taste in colors, fabrics, designer furniture, all of which she coordinates to bring grace, charm, warmth and beauty to the entire house.
The property manager (Kristina) is happy to offer local recommendations and answer questions before or during your stay. She has spent many a summer and fall in Cooperstown - including during this last season.
