Enjoyable Stay

Our stay was wonderful! Description of the property was spot on and the hosts were wonderful and went above and beyond to welcome us to their lively guesthouse! Although the property was a little further out than we originally wanted to be from Cooperstown it was worth the short drive! The property was very clean and we enjoyed a hike across the street to a beautiful waterfall and cave! We will definitely return if we are back in the area in the future!

Gorgeous private property

We were beyond happy with this place. We were in town for the baseball Hall of Fame induction weekend and this property was perfectly located away from all the crowds in Cooperstown yet close enough to be convenient. The setting is remote and stunning. The property owners were very kind and helpful. The house itself is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing property and guest house

We just stayed a week here. Property is amazing! The house is beautiful and the aesthetics were beyond expectations. It is about a 30 minute drive to the dreams park. The ride is beautiful with no traffic. The size,outdoor living, and nearby waterfalls were absolutely worth it. The house has everything you need including a washer and dryer. We cooked several nights at the house and enjoyed the outdoor firepit. This house will not dissapoint! Do not miss out hiking the trail and seeing the falls and caves. Simply beautiful!

Unique and beautiful

Doreen and Max's place in the beautiful hills of upstate New York is unique in it's architecture and wonderfully serene set amidst the changing seasons, all beautiful in this tranquil place. The guest house itself is nicely appointed with mid-century modern style furniture and there's plenty of room in this perfectly symmetrically balanced space. Set in secluded woods is the perfect place for some peace and reading a good book or hiking on a hidden gem of a trial just a few minutes walk away. We'd definitely come to stay again. Thank you Max and Doreen.

Perfect stay

This was a gorgeous property, tucked away in the hills north of Cooperstown. The house was incredibly clean, safe, well appointed, and the bed was more comfortable than home! Doreen was a wonderful host, very responsive, and still giving us the space and privacy we were looking for on our anniversary weekend. I highly recommend this property - one of the best we’ve ever stayed in!

Best Stay in Cooperstown

This house is beautiful and as others have said - immaculate. Dorren and Max are very gracious light-touch hosts, who give you privacy while also offering assistance when needed. Thoughtful touches in decor & including special touches - delicious goodies, fresh flowers, and a well appointed kitchen. We’ve stayed in the area four times in different rentals and this was by far the best. The nature center across the road has beautiful trails & very close to Glimmerglass Opera. Highly recommend. Thank you Dorren & Max!

Great stay for busy hall of fame induction

We were here for the very busy Cooperstown Hall of Fame induction weekend after months of the planning. We reserved early in order to have the best choices of spots, and we found exactly that in Jordanville. Max and Doreen’s house is perfect. Set off the road down a long driveway, this is just what we wanted for a two couple vacation. The house has three bedrooms. Two on one side with bath and one on the other with bath. Gave us all comfort and privacy. The living and family rooms are good size, modern and exceptionally clean. The galley kitchen is roomy and complete. Everything is thought of. At one point we had three of us working in the kitchen so space is not a problem. The drive to Cooperstown was a straight shot with one of the trolley parking lots when you come into town. Made it very easy for us. Lots to do and experience. We will be back. Thank you so much for everything including the sweet extras you placed there just for us. You are wonderful hosts.

Beautiful home in a lovely setting

The house is gorgeous as well as comfortable. Thank you to the hosts for leaving great snacks and waters in the fridge. We ventured into Cooperstown and Cherry Valley - both lovely drives. Bought lilacs at the Lilac Farm in Cherry Valley and had a great meal at The Rose and Kettle. Stopped at the Fish Hatchery and fed some Rainbow Trout and saw a bucket list concert at Ommegang Brewery. Every place was within 30 minutes. Beautiful area, beautiful house and very responsive and kind hosts. Thank you!

Amazing weekend at Max & Doreen’s!

Having stayed in many Vrbo accommodations before with our family, I can honestly say that staying at Max and Doreen's home in the Otsego Lake region was the absolute best experience we've had to date!! Not only is their home located on a gorgeous and tranquil piece of property with plenty of privacy, it was incredibly clean - literally spotless - and splendidly designed. Their attention to every imaginable detail from plush bath towels, to a well stocked kitchen, board games and books for children to adults, and foods such as fresh fruit and chocolates was just incredible!! We loved the fire pit too. We felt more as if we were visiting with close family members rather than staying in just a rental property. Situated close to Cooperstown we were able to easily visit the National Baseball Hall of Fame and the lovely Farmer's Museum with a carousel for the kids. Within 20 minutes of their stunning home we were able to visit several charming farms to go apple and pumpkin picking, and hiked on the phenomenal Robert B. Woodruff Learning Center trails that were mere minutes away. The trails were absolutely magnificent with multiple serene waterfalls and stunning photo opportunities around every bend. Our son loved climbing around the caves there too!! All in all our stay was phenomenal and we could not have asked for better hosts or a more perfect location!! I absolutely recommend Max and Doreen's home for your next stay. We are hoping to come back next summer for the Glimmerglass Festival!!

Wonderful time

The property is beautiful, better than the pictures. Doreen and Max could not be more helpful and welcoming. We had a wedding in Cooperstown but wanted to stay someplace more remote. This was perfect.The wildlife trail across road is a must see and we were close enough to the lake and to Cooperstown. Just a great time. Thank you for opening your home.

Too good to be true - a perfect vacation home!

The house was exactly as pictured on the website. It was spotless (yes, I went around with a wipe to clean up before we kept our stuff and found no dust). The host had thought about every little detail and made sure the place was well stocked… be it with games, books, movies, towels, blankets or the kitchen. The host also went an extra mile leaving a large bowl of Knick knacks and a print out addressed to us with all the little things they thought we should know about in relation to our stay and things to do around day. There is also a pond within the property with plenty of fish… our kids had a blast catching, petting and letting the fish go back into the water. Overall, this was the best and most perfect stay we have had through VRBO.

Long Weekend at a Modern Cottage

My partner and I spent a long weekend with her son, daughter-in-law, and newborn baby at this modern cottage. The guesthouse and the grounds were magical. Built in 1965, the guesthouse is an example of the mid-century modern style of architecture: open spaces, clean lines, minimal decoration. It is situated on a lovely property that features a pond and is in easy walking distance of the Woodruff nature preserve. We had the opportunity to meet the owners and they were especially responsive to meeting our needs. We all fell in love with the guesthouse and the location and look forward to our next visit.

Beautiful house with even a more beautiful location.

The house was just as described. It was beautifully decorated & the setting was amazing. Max & Doreen were wonderful. They made everything easy from check in to check out & answered every question we had right away. They had great suggestions of things to go see in the area. Across the street from the driveway is a breathtaking nature trail with multiple waterfalls that they suggested & it is Definitely worth the time to go and explore. The home is tastefully decorated, clean & plenty of space. The bedrooms are separated on opposites sides for plenty of privacy. I would recommend the home & the owners very highly!
