    The Nest was great! It was clean and tidy, and stocked with kitchen and bath items. We enjoyed our time on the lake with kayaks and paddleboards. Wish we would've had more time! Roberta was quick to respond to any questions we had. Wifi was appreciated too!

    We had the best weekend, a last hurrah of summer sort of thing, planned last minute. Roberta answered all questions right away and was super nice. The property is right on the lake and there are provided water toys like kayaks and SUP and floats. Cooperstown is about a 10 minute drive away so it’s the best of both worlds

    I stayed at The Nest with my husband and two sons (8 and 9) while our other son was at DreamsPark. The Nest was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the baseball fields. This location allowed us to give our sons a vacation while our other son enjoyed baseball with his team. We enjoyed swimming and fishing off the dock before and after heading over to DreamsPark. Evening bonfire and smores on the dock was everyone's favorite. A perfect little spot and we hope to return!

    Gorgeous property right on glimmerglass lake. The cottage was perfect for our Cooperstown Dream Park vacation. Kitchen was well equipped and the beds very comfortable. Space only has a window unit for AC (common for this area to not have central) which can be a little warmer than used to if visiting from the south. Downtown Cooperstown is 8-10 min drive along the lake. Dreams Park is an additional 8-10 out of town. Location is fantastic!

    I had a really, really enjoyable time staying at The Nest! My 12 year old was at Dreams Park for the week, and i was looking for a nice place for my 10 year old son and I to stay that wasnt too far away from the park. The house was very inviting the minute we walked into the door. Roberta, who is everything you could ever want in a host, takes alot of time to make sure everything in the house is clean and orderly before anyone walks in the door. I instantly knew i had made the right choice. The beds are very comfortable; we slept great the whole trip. There is plenty of privacy too, which I loved. We had our own dock with kayaks and paddle boards to use on Lake Otsego, which is truly breathtaking in its own right. We swam multiple times and enjoyed fishing too. There is also a firepit that we used as well. The last night of the trip, my son and I headed down to the dock and watched about a dozen shooting stars during a meteor shower. It was the perfect ending. The boys and I had a blast, we will definitely be back The wife will be going too! Thanks Roberta!

    My son and I had a wonderful stay in the quaint cottage. The owner was very accommodating with my schedule since we were here for a baseball tournament. Location was PERFECT!!! 10 minutes from Main Street in Cooperstown and then another 10 minutes to Dreams Park Fields. If we came back I would definitely stay here again.

    Had no idea of the sharp drop off from road to cottage and cottage to lake. 100 steps from dock to cottage at a 60 - 70 degree angle. No canoe was available as shown. Had to dump water out of heavy fire pit and was told dry wood was in or near shed by the cottage. I mentioned it was a long way to have to carry logs and was told, “others do it.” There were light & light switch issues in the cottage. The bulb for the stairs light was missing and no replacement found. Only two bath towels left for the week. Had to call for more. All kinds of warnings about water and septic system issues. Constantly concerned about using to much water or having plumbing problems. There was a hole in the screen of the screen door. The porch/deck entering the door was partially covered by tree leaves & plant debris. No attempt was made to clean this off before our arrival, and no broom left to sweep it. Plants around the deck & cottage were over grown. The weather for the week started out very rainy and the days stayed cloudy & cold. This all restricted any outdoor fun near or on the lake and meant we had to stay in the cottage too much. As a result we left early Wednesday instead of Friday. Overall, not a good week.

    We stayed here for two nights in mid-September while visiting the Baseball Hall of Fame, in Cooperstown. We purposely came after Labor Day so there would be less people. The Nest is the perfect little place on Lake Otsego. We did not use any of the lakeside equipment, like the kayaks or fire pit, but did visit the dock and it looked like fun. The weather was cool and rainy for our stay. The path to the lake was a bit tricky due to the damp conditions. It’s a cute, cozy cabin!
