About this property

Erie Canal Bike Path-Historical Vacation Home

My 140 year old vacation home has hardwood floors, the original door a big porch and 3 beautiful stain glass windows. There are 3 bedrooms. The home can accommodate 6 guests. There is one small bathroom. All the bedrooms and bathroom are upstairs. The bathroom is small but renovated. There are fans and two window unit A/C in the home. The kitchen has keurig coffee maker, toaster and all the essentials. The home is close to the village so within walking distance to shops and the Erie Canal bike bath. I am close to Sharon Springs and 26 miles from Cooperstown. Wi-Fi network name is greengrass and password is Grace#93. Parking is in paved driveway and there is no street parking. I am very close to the Erie Canal Bike Path as well. For summer cyclists, I can allow you to store your bikes in my garage in the evening.

Work Trip

The house was really nice and gave the guys room to spread out and relax in the evenings. We had a last minute change in the number of guests and Theresa was quick to respond and easy to work with to make the adjustment. She gave us great info on the local town as well.

Great location!

Great house! Very clean, walked to restaurants for breakfast and dinner. (Liked Gino's for dinner and the Village for breakfast). Hit so many neighboring towns for antiques, wineries and shops. Don't miss Howe Caverns. House had all the amenities, great water pressure in the shower (always important to us!). Laid out well for visiting, so a good place for girl's weekends. Very much enjoyed our stay and would easily recommend this house.

A beautiful house, a gracious host, a charming village, nice local amenities

This is a beautifully restored, very comfortable house within a few blocks of downtown Canajoharie’s restaurants, antique shops and classic architecture. For jogging or biking, the Erie Canal Trail is virtually right outside the front door—it’s a scenic path on a surface runners will appreciate. Dining options in Canajoharie are fine, and for a special dinner there’s The Table at Fort Plain, seven minutes away. We used the house as our home base for a weekend of opera-going at Glimmerglass, which is an easy drive (about 30 minutes). The house comfortably accommodated three couples, with plenty of room to sleep, to eat and to read/hang out in the living room or on the porch. We had a more enjoyable and relaxing weekend than at several much higher-priced b&b’s in the same area. Highly recommended!

About the host

Host profile image
I am teacher who is willing to rent my home while it is not in use. I have enjoyed renovating this 130 historical home in this quaint small town near the bike path and close to Cooperstown.

Why they chose this property

I chose this property as I enjoy the renovations and preserving it's history. I even laminated old newspaper articles I found in the basement.

What makes this property unique

Small town quiet street and a short car ride to everything or even a road trip to Boston, or Niagara Falls. Plenty of great stuff nearby like wineries, breweries, and of course the bike path and Baseball Hall of Fame
