Two Direct Otsego Lakefront Homes ~ Sleeps 14!

Great property. Excellent communications by the host.

Returned to Cooperstown for a reunion of friends who spent summers on the lake. The Boathouse was the perfect spot to stay - convenient to town, super comfortable, tremendous views, friendly and helpful owners. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed our week in Cooperstown while our eldest son played baseball. For the younger boys, this location was fantastic as they could fish off the pier and paddleboard around the lake. The lake itself is extremely pretty and safe. It was about 20 minutes from the park which wasn't bad at all. I will say that there were no towels, only rags, so would recommend bringing towels. And the pillows were worn very thin so maybe bring pillows, as well. The kitchen had every amenity. The views were stunning and we would stay there again.

The overall property was fine consider the limited number of rentals available on the lake. The surface cleaning was ok but the place needs a deep cleaning and a freshening up of some of the furniture, bedding and water sports accessories. The back bedroom where the washing machine is kept smelt of mold and there was a vine growing out of the wallpaper,, the bedding (pilllows) where far from being fresh and very brown and worn under the sheets. The railing to go upstairs was pulled out of the wall at the bottom of the stars. The upstairs bed was extremely hard, the living room furniture was very old and not comfortable and the screen door had holes in it which meant that LOTS of spiders lived with us. The kitchen was great. The outdoor area (dock and shed could have used a good cleaning and organization.

Best communicators ever. Beautiful location Very accommodating

Incredible views! Close to town. We came for the Glimmerglass Opera Festival, but our family loved hanging out by the lake and enjoyed the paddleboard and floats provided. The layout of the house worked well for us. Kitchen was fully stocked. Would recommend!

Aside from the stairs (necessary for mountain locations) and warm downstairs bedroom (no cooling system) all was nominal! We will likely book again for next year if it’s available!!!!

The Boathouse is located down 67 stairs - which we read about in the description - still a workout, especially when loading in or out. The property was perfect for our family of four. There were lots of bugs on the windows, so we decided to keep them closed at all times. The window AC unit cooled the house enough and fans are provided. The house could use a refresh of furniture and towels. If I went again, I would bring my own towels. The beach towels provided were great. The water is stunning. Clear and calm - unless there is a storm rolling in. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at the Boathouse. It was a quick 20 minute drive to Dreams Park and a great escape from our baseball themed vacation. Thank you!

We stayed here while our boys played at Cooperstown All Star Village. It was about 20 minutes from the complex. The drive was not bad, beautiful scenery. The home is just what we needed. Beautiful views, quiet surroundings and it had everything we needed.

Amazing views, super clean, and had everything you needed as far as utensils and cooking.
