Getaway weekend
Nice clean room with a great view of the lake. Close enough to Cooperstown to visit but away from the noise to relax.

Nice Hotel
The room is dated but very comfortable and clean. The staff were so friendly and helpful. You are about 6 miles from town, there is an amazing restaurant 3 miles from the hotel. Very quiet, peaceful with a beautiful view of the lake.

Good First Stay
Great views from this property. Nice, friendly staff. Room was old, not flat, and had spiders. Good value for price, great for the views, but not the best quality room itself.

Motel was great! Great view of lake, the room was very clean, check-in was easy and the office staff was friendly and informative. The only reason for not 5 stars is it’s dated and the beds weren’t that comfortable.

Beautiful views of Lake Otsego
Beautiful views. Our room was on 2nd floor of 2 story unit. So hard for my husband to climb up. Nice enough room. Everything we needed except breakfast. Coffee in room horrible. At least that could be better. Glad we stayed the one night on our trip.

Two things hit us early when we arrived: 1) The friendly & helpful staff that worked with us when we asked for options for a last minute add-on to our group and the smell of Pine Sol in the room indicating they scrub the place.
This location is like a scene out of Dirty Dancing, very charming rooms with an old school feel. Nothing modernized here, and that’s just fine. The room was comfortable & quiet…exactly what I need when I need a lower-priced, utilitarian room I’m just resting in.
We did not take advantage of the beach access but sitting on the top lawn and chatting while looking down on the lake just felt right.
If you’re looking for modern amenities & a 4-⭐️ hotel, this isn’t the place for you. If you’re looking for a rustic & welcoming place to rest, save some $ and give them a try.
