Cooperstown Baseball
Last year we loved this property and location so much that we booked it again for this year while my grandson played baseball at Cooperstown. It was a great place for the kids to unwind after their games. The kids enjoyed paddle boarding, fishing, and some hiking. The only recommendation that I would suggest is to list the fact that the property has no washer and dryer so that people would be prepared. We were prepared this year, but we struggled a little last year with minimal clothes.

Perfect spot for a long weekend at Cooperstown…
We loved, loved this lake home for our family. My children were able to fish from the dock each day and take out the paddle boat and paddle boards. It was the perfect getaway for our family of 5.

This home is a great little home for a family to enjoy a getaway in the woods. Only 12 minutes from the cooperstown feilds it is perfect for a family needing a place during the tournament. The lake is quiet and clean and a wonderful place to relax. The house is clean and stocked with anything you might need! Enjoy.

Cooperstown baseball trip
I couldn’t be more pleased with our accommodations at this Lakeside Retreat. The place was clean, well stocked, and absolutely perfect. The property manager Lisa made sure we had everything we could possibly need and even threw in extras like ingredients for s’mores, extra propane for the gas grill, and extra firewood for the outdoor pit. We spent our days watching the kids play baseball and our evenings fishing off the dock, boating, and enjoying the outdoor space to the fullest. We already can’t wait to go back!

Autumn Lake Vibes near Cooperstown
We traveled to the Cooperstown area as a celebration trip for my husband‘s birthday. He chose the trip destination, the Baseball Hall of Fame, and this was a great location/cottage to use as “home base” for a few days. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the areas of Cooperstown, Milford and Cherry Valley. It was a laid-back time of year to be a tourist in this area. We have used VRBO several times, and give this cottage 4 stars for a couple of reasons. I would highly recommend that you thoroughly read the description of the cottage and acquaint yourself with all of the idiosyncrasies of this rental. I am usually pretty good at doing that but there were a couple of things I missed. The running/tapwater is not potable, however drinking water is provided in a large cooler. Not a huge inconvenience however something to be aware of. We were not informed ahead of time that the dock would be taken out of the water at the time we arrived. My husband is a fisherman as well and was looking forward to sitting on the dock to fish and was not able to do that. Basically all of the outdoor amenities were closed down for the season and we were not informed of that. It was very cold at night low of 29° and the heating was by a woodstove which took us a little while to figure out, no central heat or A/C. Having never operated a woodstove it was a bit of an adventure! Two things I would recommend to the owner are more comfortable seating in the living room - need a new couch and the linens and bed pillows were a bit shabby. That being said, we enjoyed the cottage by the lake, the view is fantastic and the proximity to all attractions in the area worked for us!

Serene stay
Our time at Arnold Lake is always too brief, but we were delighted this year to find this lovely cottage, which felt like a home away from home. Well-stocked kitchen for all kinds of cooking, beautiful views upstairs and down, cozy with personal touches throughout. We enjoyed reading about the history of the cottage and the family’s love and care for it. The dock was a great place for reading and swimming and just taking in the view for hours. The lake is pristine. On our walks we met welcoming and friendly neighbors. We look forward to returning with our daughter and son-in-law next time!

Disappointed
This property is in Otsego County not the lake. It is Arnold lake 25 minutes from Cooperstown. There was perishables left in refrigerator and the tv was not working. When attempting to call the host the number was disconnected. Emailed VRBO who contacted someone that got back later that night but we already made other accommodations since no one was available. I was told sorry but host info had never been updated . Now disputing refund over a week

How lucky we were to have this cute place to relax and unwind after a long day of ball games. Convenient to CDP, Milford, and Cooperstown, this house felt like a world away. Perfect patio, dock, Smart TV and Wi-Fi were the perfect blend of disconnecting and staying in touch. Thanks for a great week, we will tell our friends!
