This was a great place for the 1 night we needed. Very clean and the service from Matt & his family was outstanding. Very neat, old home that looks like it’s having some updates. Breakfast was wonderful and homemade by Matt himself. Lovely stay!

This historic home has so much potential if it would be kept up by the property owner. Just a fresh coat of paint and the overgrown landscaping cleaned up would make a world of difference. Our entire stay reflected the lack of interest of the host/owner. We chose the largest, most expensive room with a private bathroom, yet when I peaked in at other rooms they were better decorated and the shared bathrooms were updated and nicely tiled. Our room needed updating. Tacky decor and a tiny bathroom with a prefab shower and lights that didn’t work. The room was dirty, the glass table next to the bed was covered in fingerprints and glass rings. Upon entering our room I found the trash in the bathroom hadn’t been emptied. My first instinct was to pull the sheets back and look to be sure there wasn’t any bedbugs. I’ve have never worried or done that where I’ve stayed before. The view out our window was of trash lined around the garage and the overgrown landscaping. Then there’s the breakfast and snacks. If you love sugar you will be very pleased, but if you like to eat healthy you’re out of luck. No choices at breakfast or health/allergy considerations, you get whatever the host is making. We were served scrambled eggs, bacon coated in brown sugar, and pancakes loaded with sugar pearls! The snacks offered is Halloween size candy and lunchbox size packages of assorted chips. No fruit, no healthy bars, no yogurt. If you just need to stop for one night this place will be okay enough.

Bed and Breakfast

The location was a good location for us to spend the night in the Cooperstown area. The outside of the property is not exactly as pictured right now. I hope it is a work in progress. The inside was fine. The room was good and we had a private bathroom. The owner, Matt, is very nice and he made a wonderful breakfast! We enjoyed our short stay.

Whether you are passing through, staying for Cooperstown All-Star Villiage, or Dreams Park, this is a great location. Its an historic home with modern functionality, and Matt is an awesome host. There was a delicious, real home cooked breakfast each morning, and he provides great recommendations for dining, and desserts, all just a short drive from the property.

Great Stay & Owner/Chef!!

Quaint, historic building with beautiful, individually decorated rooms…one or more with private bath. Owner Matt is fabulous, helpful, and a Fantastic Chef!! Breakfast of pancakes, sausages, and eggs was delicious, and the fresh-brewed coffee was too. Perfect!!

We had a wonderful stay at this charming Inn while moving our daughter to SUNY Oneonta. The host Matt was warm and attentive, making us feel right at home. The breakfast was delicious and prepared with passion, adding a special touch to our mornings. The historic house is full of charm and character, providing a unique and memorable experience. If you're looking for a cozy and welcoming place to stay near SUNY Oneonta or Cooperstown, I highly recommend the Brookside Inn
