Excellent location & view

This was our first trip to Otsego Lake & the Cooperstown area. This house was very well stocked with everything needed, & then some. As one other reviewer noted, all you need to bring are your clothes & food. Also, the house was very, very clean. The view of the lake from the breakfast & dining room areas was wonderful. The two kayaks & one canoe were a great bonus. The area down by the water, however, needs to be upgraded. There is little room to walk, and a lot of rusty metal. This was understood to be the case before we booked, since the owner was quite thorough in his description of the property. Any questions we had were quickly answered. We would definitely book this property again in the future.

Great Getaway

As a first time NYRBO renter, I wasn’t sure how this would go but the information on this property was very accurate. The owner was super responsive and helpful, a pleasure to work with. This house is fully stocked so you only need to pack your clothes and bring some food and you are good to go. Big grill was great. Very close to town and lots to do in the area off the lake. Baseball Hall of Fame, Glimmer Glass State Park, wineries, breweries, hiking, shopping and the list goes on. Everyone enjoyed the 2 kayaks and canoe at the house (we appreciated the many size life vests provided at the house) and large yard where we were able to set up our own yard games. The lake is beautiful and you can see it from all the front rooms of the house and the deck. The home was very clean and well kept with comfy beds, sofas, etc. I would warn those with small children that this might not be the property for them as there are fairly steep stairs to the lakefront and you do have to cross the road. However, our young teens and adults had no issues with this. This was a very last minute trip and I have to say a wonderful experience. We will definitely be looking to return to this house again. As someone who is used to a summer beach vacation, this was much more relaxing and the prefect Covid safe choice. I would recommend this property to my friends and you.

Beautiful Lake view

There is a gorgeous panoramic view of Otsego Lake from the breakfast room. Even with no central air (there are window units in the bedrooms upstairs), we were comfortable on the main floor with lake breezes and ceiling fans even on a 90 degree day. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed. We really enjoyed exploring the streets of quaint downtown Cooperstown, which is a very short drive away.

Cooperstown Baseball Trip

Great property and location. This was our second trip to Cooperstown for the 12-yr. old baseball tournament. Stayed along Lake Otsego both times, but this house was superior to first visit. House was very clean and comfortable. Spacious downstairs with remodeled kitchen and multiple sitting areas and two different tv viewing areas. One of the bathrooms is downstairs (all three bedrooms upstairs), but both are spacious and comfortable. View of lake out front and the wooded hillside out back were perfect for mid-summer upstate NY. Enjoyed kayaks and canoe every day. Five minutes from Cooperstown and 15 minutes from dreams park. In summary, we enjoyed everything about our stay and would not hesitate to book again. Thanks, to Peter and Judy.

Wonderful stay at Deer Ridge!

Wonderful baseball week. Just wish we had more time at the house. Newly remodeled kitchen and dining area were beautiful with great views of lake. House was very clean and spacious, and included everything you need for week at lake. Stunning views from deck and short walk to waterfront. Kids loved fishing and using kayaks and canoe. Contacted owner a few times with questions. He was very friendly and accommodating- even shipped items we left behind for us. Would love to go back!!

Charming and spacious lake side home!

Recently concluded our dad's only trip to Cooperstown to take in the holiday weekend Hall of Fame festivities and a concert at Ommegang brewery. The location of this property is fantastic as it's very close to the village of Cooperstown (4 miles) and it's situated on a hillside across the street from the lake so you have an awesome view. The house is very spacious, clean and updated. We especially enjoyed the kitchen area with adjacent dining room for view of the lake. There's also a huge flat screen TV and very comfortable couch in the front living room area. The Wi-Fi is very good as well, all 4 of us could stream & surf the web with ease as there was plenty of bandwidth to go around. The owner of the property was very nice and easy to contact via the NYRBO app. We would definitely come back to this property in the future and may even bring our wives and children!
