This delightful 4 bedroom, 3 bath home is nestled in the woods on 6 pretty acres overlooking two lovely ponds. This privately situated home is only 5 miles to Dreams Park and 3 miles to the village of Cooperstown. Open, bright and spacious, the main floor has two bedrooms, a full bath, laundry room, kitchen dining and living areas which take in the views from its soaring windows and sliding glass doors. Just outside the living room is a massive wrap-around deck providing an epic place for your morning coffee and afternoon/evening BBQ's with a view!
The entire upstairs is a large Primary Bedroom loft with its own private bath.
Downstairs in the walk-out basement is a sizable game room/den, with ping pong table, pellet stove, full bath, and a 4th bedroom with 2 sets of bunk beds. This is a terrific space for the whole family!
You will appreciate the many usable outdoor spaces. Aside from the large deck and lower patio, you may swim in the pond, enjoy bonfires in the fire-pit, and indulge in the many lawn games provided by the homeowner.

Everything in the home was exactly as described! I recommend this home to anyone looking to stay in a secluded and quite home while taking in all the sights in and around Cooperstown, NY!
We loved staying at Twin Ponds! Perfect amount of space for our group. Younger kids absolutely loved having their bunk room and exploring down by the pond. Had some confusion with the locks and the owners were very quick in response! Thanks for a great week!
An absolutely lovely cabin. We came up for my son's 11th birthday and he was obsessed with the ping pong table. The house had everything you would need and it was close to everything. We loved every moment and can't wait to return!
What an awesome find in the heart of Cooperstown. It was central to all parts of our baseball trip and a beautiful drive to get t there. The beds were the most comfortable beds and decorated with adorable and soft bedding! The amazing scenery out back was so picturesque and made for fabulous photos! The owner and management were extremely helpful and responsive. I would definitely book again when we come back - highly recommended!
Wonderful location and home for a Cooperstown visit
What a beautiful home. Everything was clean and the yard was beautiful. We ran multiple showers at a time and everyone had hot water. The kids loved hanging in the basement while the adults stayed upstairs. My only recommendation would be to put a TV in the basement.
They house was nicely equipped with everything we needed. I felt that the linens needed to be cleaned. The bed my mother stayed in we had to take the sheets off and wash them. They smelled so sweaty. The top quilt for upstairs was very dirty and smelly. The downstairs smelled very musty. The property was very nice, saw deer in the morning and evening around the pond.
The house was very clean and just as described in the listing. It's nestled in the woods at the end of a gravel winding road that goes up the mountain. We stayed there in the fall when the leaves were changing and it was very pretty. On our first day, as we were walking around the pond, a deer was in the woods checking us out!
The house was a very good rental, and I would recommend it to those visiting the area. Check-in and communication with property manager was smooth, everything we needed was there, and the semi-private location in the woods was great. Plenty of space for our group of 7 to spread out. What we found to be downsides were mattresses/beds where you sink to the middle, and a musty basement due to lack of basement a/c. Almost any house is going to have some imperfections, so we were able to get past these.
Our family had a great time at Twin Ponds while watching our son play at Cooperstown. Easy access to Dreams Park, downtown, and all the surrounding sites. The house was clean and well-maintained. Great family area for us to enjoy meals and hang out at night. Deck was perfect for our family BBQ. Our kids had a blast on the property and enjoyed the ponds and the fire pit. Definitely recommend!
This property was exactly what out group needed, a beautiful scenic area, close to Cooperstown. The property fit all of our needs, and there was plenty of sleeping space.
Fortunate to find such a great place to stay for our "22 Cooperstown Induction Weekend stay! Seamless experience with Suzie at Lake Lady Properties. Prompt communication. All questions and concerns immediately addressed throughout the process. The home was clean, orderly, comfortable, and had more than everything we needed for our stay! Would certainly recommed this VRBO to family and friends! Thank you!
A short drive from Dreams Park and Cooperstown, this was a great retreat for grandparents and our family. It was very peaceful but had great space for my 16 year old and his friend. They fished and played ping pong. The deck was great. We had a cool week and spent most of our time on the deck. We would come back here just to hang out and go to the hall of fame! The kitchen was stocked with dishes and silverware but had older appliances and a lack of sharp knives and limited sizes of pots and pans (no two quart sauce pan!) If you plan to cook, you might want to bring knives. Overall a great stay!
Great location!!! The property sites at the end of road. You pull in to see the house sitting above these quaint 2 ponds. The house is very clean and nicely set up. Spacious master bedroom with private bath with dual shower heads; great surprise. The main floor was 2 bedrooms and bath with plenty of seating. Nice way to spend quality time sitting on the patio or playing board games after a nice meal.The bottom floor is set up great for kids; 2 set of bunk beds, full bath, ping pong, indoor and outdoor seating area for them to have their own little oasis. Nice outdoor fire pit for s’mores.
Wanting to explore the area everything is within a 5 to 20 minute ride. Five minute ride to downtown with the hall, shopping, and plenty of restaurants. Plenty of breweries and other outdoor activities just a short ride away.
If you want to cook Price Chopper and local farmers markets or if you forget toothpaste CVS and Dollar General a short ride. Great place to get away to connect with family and friends.
We had a group of 5 adults and 4 kids between 6 and 11. A great time was had by all! We relaxed and played board games and ping pong and enjoyed spending time together. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The property manager checked in to make sure everything was ok and we didn’t need her for anything else, but I think she would have been easy to reach because we had been in contact before! I think it would be beautiful in the summer/fall to sit out on the deck and will definitely be booking again in the future during the warmer seasons!
6 of us stayed here for a trip to Cooperstown and a day trip to Saratoga Racetrack. Beautiful cabin-like property, peaceful, somewhat secluded. Great walks in the morning.
Twin Ponds offers a great location with great privacy. Yet it is located just a few minutes from Downtown Cooperstown, Dreams Field, many restaurants, and the Price Chopper supermarket. The property itself was very clean and very expansive. There are two spring fed ponds on the property and at some point you'll see deer stopping by for a drink. We took advantage of the large outdoor deck and barbecued a few times during our visit. Origins Cafe, a fun Cooperstown secret, is a half-mile walk or drive away. We experienced great communication with the management company and any questions were responded to quickly. We would HIGHLY recommend this property no matter what the reason for your visit to Cooperstown.
