Nice Home

We stayed here with 4 adults and two children while my son played in a tournament at Allstar Village. The house is spacious, clean and comfortable. Making meals were somewhat challenging because the lack of utensils and the grill was a mess. Other than that everything was perfect.

We had the most amazing week at this house! Everything was gorgeous and clean and relaxing. It was so nice to be close to all star village, but not too close. We loved the peaceful setting of the lake and woods and would 100% recommend this home for families coming to town for baseball. We loved having the canoe to explore and the deck provided so many beautiful mornings to relax with a cup of coffee. The only thing I would suggest is that the home be stocked with essentials like spices, paper towels, toilet paper, laundry soap, shampoo/conditioner etc. We loved our trip and have memories that will last a lifetime.

Amazing House!

We had an excellent stay! Everything felt so clean and updated, and the kitchen had all supplies to make home cooked meals. We didn’t get to spend as much time in the house as we would have liked thanks to the CASV schedule. But it always felt like a retreat going back each night but still close enough to the Village. Don’t hesitate to book!

Away from the hectic ballpark

We had a great time here! Our son was playing at Cooperstown and we didn’t want to stay right there. The pictures and descriptions are very accurate. It was nice to come back from long stretches at the fields to relax before going back. It has a lot of food, gas, coffee, bjs, Walmart like 20 mins away. The park is 15 mins away. I have a 7 and 9 year old. My 7 year old has some health challenges, the hike up from the water was a lot. It definitely isn’t a light walk up. We enjoyed the canoe! The boys were hoping to go swimming but it was very slippery looking on the rocks at the shore and there wasn’t a way to get up onto the dock. So if you are planning on swimming make sure you bring water shoes. We aren’t a family that closes our doors to sleep, but if you do bring a fan, the ductless split for air conditioning is in the downstairs hall and if you close the doors it will get a little stuffy. We didn’t have a problem(we enjoyed the AC), but just helping others to plan. We would absolutely rent again if we were to come back!!

Great Location near Cooperstown Dream Park

The house itself was great in many ways. It was fully stocked with everything we needed which was great! And was also very clean! We were not there much to fully utilize the Viking range in the kitchen or grill out on the deck. My husband and son were able to get a little fishing in off the dock to help pass a little time away before heading to the ball fields. A few cons of the home was that 3 rooms were in the basement. It was cold and damp. There were no dressers and only a few hangers. Some area rugs would be nice on the cold hard floors as well. We felt like we had to wear our shoes the entire time. The major issue we had with the home was the grossly awful smell of the water. It was hard to brush our teeth and had to use bottle water to do so. The scent of rotten eggs just permeated the bathrooms during a shower as well. For $500 per night we would suggest a water softener or treat the water/well to avoid such a distasteful odor. Would we stay again? Probably not. Again, although the home was lovely with amenities, we weren’t aware that majority of the rooms were in a basement and the order of the water was unbearable.

Baseball Family Stay

Wonderful lake front cabin close to All Star Village. Our family really enjoyed our stay. The home is open, bright and has a very cool rustic feel. Kitchen was awesome and open to the main living area. Bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, especially the upstairs loft bedroom! Would definitely recommend this home. The only suggestion I would have for the owners is to trim the trees to allow for a more amazing view of the lake through the huge windows and from the deck

Cooperstown Group Trip

The property is updated and clean!! Just about 20 min from ASV (which is typical for any house rental) and a gem. Honestly, many other properties are old but this is a rare find. Property manager Issy was outstanding with communication and her responses to our needs. At one point during our stay, we realized we didn’t have a spatula for flipping eggs, so Issy left two on our front porch the same day. We have done many rentals in our past and realize this is rare! Loved the house - just wish we had more free time to fully enjoy it! Thank you for all you did!!

New and clean house!

We just stayed at the house while our son played in the All Star Village tournament. House was recently built and well equipped. Great place to stay for a relaxing family trip and the drive to All Star Village is very easy. The owner, Issy, responded to any questions I had very quickly and was pleasant to deal with. Only recommendation if staying at the house would be to bring your own bath towels with you. Towels provided at the house are very small and thin. Perhaps an easy upgrade for the owners moving forward.

One Word: Gorgeous

If you're reading this review, hurry up and book this property now! You won't be disappointed. The only thing not perfectly captured in the owners' description is just how unique this house is and how stunning the grounds are. The drive up Bob Wilson Road alone is picturesque and then upon arrival, you'll love the view and walk down to the serene lake. Morning coffee and evening cocktails on the large deck overlooking the lake were amazing. The house is warm, inviting, modern and comfortable. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large and the kitchen/dining area/great room are perfect for family game nights and gathering for meals. The owner was wonderful to work with and if you're coming for baseball, it's an easy 18-20 minute drive over to CASV. Truly, we cannot say enough good things about Timber Lodge.

Baseball Stay

This property was fantastic for our stay during our All Star Village baseball tournament week. Check-in/Check-out was super easy. The home was beautifully appointed and fit two families (4 adults + 3 kids) perfectly. The house is about 15 minutes from ASV so convenient from that perspective. The location is just as advertised, right on Goodyear Lake with a small dock and canoe for visitor use. We loved the place and hope to book again when we visit ASV with our younger son in 2024! Thanks to the Issy and Jamie for their hospitality.

About the host

Hosted by Issy Durkin

Host profile image
This house was built by the owners- a career builder/designer and a local teacher. This house is the result of years of experience building custom homes; specializing in historic timber frames.

Why they chose this property

-One of the reasons we chose to build on this site is because it is very close to the water - and we've also dreamed of owning a waterfront property.
-Goodyear Lake appealed to us because it's picturesque 344 acre lake, not extremely active (there is no public launch) and is very quiet and relaxing.
-We choose the Cooperstown area-not only because of its location to the baseball hall of fame, but also because of the many other features, it has to offer. Within a short distance, there are several shops, restaurants, parks, and hiking/outdoor recreation facilities.

What makes this property unique

-431 feet of picturesque waterfront includes a generous area for outdoor seating and grill
Swimming and fishing available from the dock
-Canoe available for use
-Newly built- the fall of 2019
-The home is built from a hand-hewed timber-framed barn. Original barn built in the 1790’s by English settlers in the Catskill Mountains (Gilboa, NY)
-Features exposed timbers in all rooms
All furniture is custom crafted (beds, end-tables, kitchen cabinets, butcher-block island, vanities, light fixtures etc.)
