Abner's Pondside Retreat A

Our second time at Abners Pondside and another wonderful experience. So clean! Everything we need and beautiful location.

When planning to come up for our son’s Cooperstown tourney at All Star Village we wanted to rent a house as oppose to a hotel. Choosing Abner’s Retreat was the perfect choice. Proximity to the fields and great restaurants in Oneonta is exactly what we were hoping for. Regarding the property,the house was fantastic and the views were to die for. I would highly recommend this to anyone going up in the future for baseball or just a getaway.

The pond and surrounds are so pretty! Cabin has everything you need. Nice linens and towels.

Don’t hesitate on this property, it is absolutely stunning! We had a great week at this charming pondside retreat while our son was playing at Allstar Village. It was a clean and serene space for our downtime during the tournament. Everything was very clean and cared for, owners were friendly and helpful, our son LOVED fishing in the pond and watching the cows. It was a lifesaver to be able to run a load of laundry midweek. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and stylish! This sweet little spot had everything we needed and the most beautiful view. For a baseball loving family, there were little hints and themes of baseball that we absolutely loved and couldn’t wait to leave a pin from our team on the board! If we return, I’ll be sure to book again! Thank you for a spectacular experience!

Wonderful property. Beautiful views in a remote setting and still close to All Star Village and downtown Oneonta. Our children loved fishing the pond!

Awesome retreat for our family. This place was just what our son (playing at Cooperstown) needed when he needed a little break.

Our stay at Abner’s Retreat was wonderful. The unit is on a beautiful, peaceful property with cows nearby and a fishing pond. There are fire pits and Adirondack chairs to enjoy the outdoors. The beds were super comfortable. There are stadium chairs, folding chairs and umbrellas for those visiting for CASV. The laundry shed has detergent and fishing poles. Several bottles of bug spray are in the unit. Lots of fluffy towels, shampoo/conditioner in the bathroom. The kitchen has everything you need to cook. It takes about 8 minutes to get to downtown/Main Street Oneonta and about 15 mins to get to the CASV fields. There’s not much in the immediate area, but everything was close enough to be convenient. We loved staying in this serene location.

Clean, serene, comfortable and quiet. Close to SUNY Oneonta where we had a son graduate. Didn’t have a chance to fish or lounge, but when we were there it was a pleasant place

We stayed her while our youngest son played at All Star. The property is absolutely breathtaking and we enjoyed relaxing at the farm just as much as the chaotic days at Cooperstown. The Owner could not have been more helpful including taking the time to mail us back some stuff we left. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We came to Oneonta for our son’s baseball tournament at All Star Village. This VRBO was only 15 minutes from the fields. It is on a peaceful, country piece of property with a lovely pond. In the evenings when there was no baseball game, we enjoyed fires in the firepit and listening to the frogs. The space was perfect for my husband and I. Please note there is no dishwasher so if you are planning to cook, you will need to be prepared to wash all dishes by hand. This wasn’t a big deal for us b/c it was just the two of us.

Great stay! Clean, comfortable, beautiful setting.
