Cooperstown, New York
Charmingly rustic, custom-crafted cottage in a fairytale setting on 1.6 lakefront acres with private beach, swim platform, canoe, two kayaks and a blissful porch to take in the gorgeous lake and sunset vistas. Wade into the water from the gradual beachfront for superb swimming. Enjoy an evening beachfront fire as the sun sets upon this magical place.
Located just 15 minutes north of the village of Cooperstown, 16.4 miles from Dreams Park, Hawk Nest offers three bedrooms; one with a king bed, one queen bedroom and one single twin bedroom (the "moon" room is a 4th bedroom option with a full size futon) and 1.5 baths, a country kitchen, sunny and cheerful dining room, and two sitting rooms, all with views of the lake. The fireplace was built from fallen chimney bricks from the oldest house in Springfield Center.
The upstairs bedrooms have free-standing air conditioners for use on those gorgeous hot sunny days!
There is dining available inside and out! Have a cup of coffee or tea outside each morning and take in the beauty of the lake.

Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful spot on the lake. The cabin was great and almost everything you could need was provided. A great experience and we will definitely visit again !
This is our second stay and we just love this place. It is NOT fancy and in the midst of the summer, you may long for a/c on the first floor . BUT it is the perfect, quiet location (and yet close enough to Cooperstown) and we love this quirky little cabin. It has everything you might need in terms of amenities and supplies. We love having a washer/dryer so we can pack lighter. My husband had a great time fishing and I enjoyed birdwatching. We can't wait to come back!
Not as nice as pics make it. Not worth the money. The lawn was mowed while we were there trying to have lunch on the porch. He was there well over an hour. Another day, the owners good friend came through yard with a dog claiming she didn't know someone was there. Obviously sent to check is out, she seemed very nervous. The house is very hot even with the stand alone air-conditioners. The property is very private and the beach firepit was great. Overall we had a decent time but have stayed in much better for less.
At the quiet end of the lake with lots of wildlife (birds, loons, deer). My husband loved getting up in the wee hours of the morning and fishing and I loved my tea on the porch. The house itself is beautiful - quirky and cozy and we loved reading about the history. It had everything we could have possibly needed and was only about 15 minutes from Cooperstown's restaurants and attractions. We can't wait to come back. I sincerely thank you for sharing your lovely home with others. It was a magical weekend.
nice location directly on the lake
Very cozy cabin with new A/C units in the upstairs bedrooms. We were very comfortable. The space was fully stocked with everything we needed. We only had to purchase our personal groceries. Truly enjoyed the use of the kayaks and the lakefront area was perfect! We would stay there again in a heartbeat! Thanks for a great vacation for our family!
Beautiful cabin. Has everything to offer. Only downside is no AC or TV. WIFI is great.
We loved this hand built cottage on Lake Otsego. The property is beautiful, and part of a larger property owned for 100 years by the same family. The house itself is a little rustic, but has a full working kitchen, two baths, and a washer dryer. The only thing missing was ac, but we didn't really miss it with all the screen windows and fans.
