Updated Historic Home with Barn, Scenic Views & EV Charger

Be our guest and stay in a piece of local history! Built in 1835, this spacious historic home blends old-world character with modern comforts, giving families and groups a unique place to relax, reconnect, and enjoy everything the Cooperstown area has to offer.

The home has been thoughtfully updated with modern amenities, including heated flooring, central air conditioning, and an EV charger, while still maintaining the charm and character that make an older home so special.

The location is ideal for families, baseball groups, and friends traveling together. You’ll have plenty of space, privacy, beautiful country views, and easy access to many of the area’s most popular attractions, most within about 30 minutes.

If baseball isn’t your thing, there is still plenty to do. Bring your boat and spend the day on Canadarago Lake, located just about five minutes away, or enjoy swimming, fishing, and relaxing by the water. Golfers can visit the historic Otsego Golf Club, one of the oldest golf courses in the country. The area is also home to wonderful wineries, breweries, restaurants, scenic drives, and small towns worth exploring.

During your stay, you will have access to the entire home (minus the basement and attic areas).

The main level features a comfortable living room, family room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen, large pantry, laundry room with full-size washer and dryer, office/work area, and a full bathroom with a walk-in shower.

Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms and two additional bathrooms:

Bedroom 1: One queen bed
Bedroom 2: Two queen beds
Bedroom 3: Four twin beds
Bedroom 4: One king bed

One upstairs bathroom is located off the primary bedroom and includes a walk-in shower. The second is located off the main hallway and features a full bath with a classic clawfoot tub and shower surround.

Step outside from the family room onto the deck, where you’ll find outdoor seating for relaxing, dining, or enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The property also includes a grill, fire pit area, and an oversized backyard with plenty of room for kids to play, yard games, or even your own family baseball game.

One of the most unique features of the property is the three-story barn. The main level has been set up as an additional gathering and entertainment space and is perfect for rainy days, evenings, or simply giving your group more room to spread out. Inside you’ll find an 86-inch TV, string lights, ping pong table, cornhole, and an additional dining area with seating for up to 10 guests.

There is ample parking on the property, including space for multiple vehicles and room for guests traveling with a boat. An EV charger is also available at the home for guests traveling with an electric vehicle.

Whether you are visiting for baseball, boating, golfing, sightseeing, a family vacation, or simply a peaceful Upstate New York getaway, this historic home gives your group the space and flexibility to make the trip your own.

Come enjoy the history, views, outdoor space, and one-of-a-kind barn while making some memories of your own.

Great get away!

This is an amazing location to gather family and friends for a 70th birthday celebration. There's enough room for everyone, and the barn is where most of the day was spent. People enjoyed hanging out, playing pool, and taking in the beautiful view. The spacious, clean kitchen was fantastic for our gathering.

Lovely stay for HOF induction weekend

Beautiful old home in a fantastic location. Enough silverware and dishes for a large crowd, much needed air conditioning, and the comfiest couch we've ever had the pleasure of sitting upon. We also have never slept so well away from home - the beds are delightful. The only notes to be aware of - only the bunk room has window coverings (bring a sleep mask) and the stairs are very steep, narrow, and have a railing at the top that is extremely low.

Wonderful Experience

We booked for our wedding weekend coming from Indiana. Nadia was extremely welcoming during the booking process. The house is huge, clean, and cozy. The activity barn was a huge hit with our kids and we loved having late night bonfires! We plan to book on future visits to the area. Highly recommend!!

Cooperstown Gift

Got a trip to Cooperstown with two or his buddies and their wives. Criteria was affordable place, close to Cooperstown that could sleep at least 7 and this place fit the bill and then some l. Plenty of space, beautiful barn, and beautiful yard. It was great that it had two inside living rooms and plenty of kitchen and dining room. Host were very communicative. Only tip I would leave for light sleepers is not all rooms have curtains

Barn Life for me!

The house was great and exactly what we needed! We came with 4 kids and 6 adults and had plenty of room! The large kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals and save money on dining with both a huge dining room and large table in the barn to eat at. The Barn was great, corn hole and ping pong as well as just relaxing and taking in the amazing view from the back! We were centrally located to many attractions such as Cooperstown, Herkimer Mines, Howe and secret Caverns, The Teepee, Hyde House and Glimmer glass Lake to name a few. We had a great time and definitely will come back! Thank you for a great time!

About the host

Hosted by Nadia

Host profile image
We’re Nadia and Matt, two proud New Jersey natives who’ve been together for over 15 years and are busy parents of five awesome kids. We love a good adventure, whether it’s camping under the stars, traveling somewhere new, or enjoying lazy weekends with our big, loud, loving blended family and friends.

In 2020, we stumbled upon this charming stone home, and it was love at first sight. We knew right away it was the perfect place for family gatherings, holidays, and making memories. Now we’re so excited to share it with you!

This home is filled with warmth, laughter, and so many happy memories, and we hope it becomes the backdrop for some of yours, too.

If you need us during your stay, the best way to reach us is by text. We’re always just a message away.

Thanks so much for choosing our home. We’re thrilled to have you here!

Happy travels!

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with this area because every season seems to bring something special, but fall is truly unforgettable. Watching the trees change, exploring the local antique shops, spending time around the many lakes and parks, and simply enjoying the peace and quiet of the backyard made me appreciate how special this part of Upstate New York really is.

What means the most to me, though, is owning a historic home here. There is something incredibly meaningful about caring for a house that has been part of the community for nearly two centuries. It makes me feel more connected to the history, the land, and the people who have called this area home before me. I love being able to share a little piece of that experience with our guests.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property truly special is the amount of space and privacy you get while still being close to everything the area has to offer. Our historic 1835 home sits on nearly 80 acres, giving guests room to spread out, relax, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. There’s even enough open space in the backyard to toss a football, play lawn games, or practice baseball with the family!

One of our favorite features is the beautiful three-story barn. We’ve transformed the main level into a fun gathering space with an 86-inch TV, ping pong, cornhole, string lights, and a large dining table—perfect for movie nights, rainy afternoons, or hanging out after a busy day exploring.

The property also offers beautiful country views, a fire pit, outdoor dining, a grill, plenty of parking, room for a boat trailer, and an EV charger. Inside, you’ll find the character of a nearly 200-year-old home combined with modern conveniences, giving you a stay that feels both historic and comfortable.

Best of all, you can enjoy the peace and privacy of the countryside without feeling isolated. We’re centrally located to Cooperstown-area attractions, lakes, golf, breweries, wineries, parks, antiquing, and more.

It’s not just a place to sleep between activities—it’s a place where your group can spend time together, make memories, and enjoy Upstate New York right from the property.
