This was the perfect place for us to get together for the weekend! It is beautiful and there is so much space and so much to do we didn't need to leave!
The house was wonderful, clean, spacious, and in a great location. Communicating with the host was easy, and the responses were prompt. Great experience overall!
We had a lovely long weekend at The Smith House -- it's a beautiful property with everything you could possibly need. We will absolutely be back again.
Our stay at the Smith House was absolutely amazing. This is by far the best VRBO our family has stayed in. The house was perfect for our family to gather for our daughters wedding which was held at the Farmers Museum. The layout, rooms, and property, exceeded our expectations. Loved this house!
We enjoyed our stay very much. Peaceful surroundings and a very comfortable place yet close to restaurants, shops, breweries, etc. The house was very clean and the host was available for any needs or questions.
We had a lovely time staying at the Smith House for a week during a brutally cold stretch in January. The multiple fireplaces/wood stoves kept the place toasty and oh so comfy while we worked (great WiFi), ate and relaxed - in between visiting upstate family. Cooperstown is quiet this time of year, but that suited us fine for this trip. The home is really lovely, exactly as described, and the whole process was simple. Highly recommend!
Excellent precheck in communication from the host. Checked in to the Smith House greeted by fresh donuts and local coffee. As my wife said, “that really made it feel so welcoming!”Ample room for our party of 11 ranging from 9-83. Perfect location for grandparents on the ground floor while kids enjoyed bunk beds. Fierce competition all weekend long on pool and pinging tables. Relaxed in the amazing hot tub every night. However , The highlight - far and away - was the adults vs kids whiffle ball game played in the backyard private field (Smith field!). Complete with lights and a scoreboard, the adults rose victorious for a game we’ll never forget.Oh and it’s super convenient to the HOF (the actual reason we came). Thanks for a phenomenal stay. We loved it!
Spacious home w good layout and nice amenities for an adult family long weekend in Cooperstown. Very short, easy drive to town center. All were very pleased with locale and property
The Smith house was the perfect choice for our group during our week at dreams park. The location was so close to the fields and in a beautiful, quiet setting. The house is spacious inside and the game areas were perfect for keeping the kids busy during downtime. The owner was very helpful as well and easy to work with. Would highly recommend this property!
We had a great stay at the Smith house. We really loved staying there and the house was as beautiful as described. The check-in/check-out process was easy. All the directions from Tim were great and we truly enjoyed our time there. Will definitely book this house again.
Our group had an amazing stay at the Smith house. The house was absolutely perfect and had so much character. The fire swing and wiffle ball field were definitely a highlight after long days at the baseball fields. We would recommend the Smith house in a heartbeat!
This house is amazing. Great location for games at Cooperstown. Beds were so comfy we bought some for our own home. Only complaint is I’m glad I bring a blanket with me when I travel because there aren’t extras in the house. This house was worth it!
A really great home and space for a large group of friends or families. The bedrooms were all large with very comfortable beds. The communal areas were wonderful to hang out in and the kitchen was great to cook in! Close to all that Cooperstown has to offer. We checked out some local restaurants and breweries that were all less than 10 minutes away. We cannot wait to return!
We had three families with teenage girls and boys staying at the house. It was terrific! The owner was very easy to reach and responsive. The property itself was beautiful and the house was big but cozy and very clean. We had an amazing time and would highly recommend it!
The house was very much as advertised. Very spacious, awesome game room for kids and teens and a nice billiard room also. Very close to the HoF. Owner was very responsive. Will definitely re-book!

About the host
Hosted by Timothy A Smith
This is my childhood home, which we built in 1992, moved away from in 2004, and we purchased again in 2020. Having this home back in the family is the fulfillment of a long-held dream. I grew up here, I love it here, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to share it with all who may visit.

This property is uniquely situated overlooking the Susquehanna River Valley, just a few miles south of the Village of Cooperstown. It is ideal for multiple families or larger groups visiting the area, and offers something for visitors of all ages.
What makes this property unique
