We can't say enough how much we enjoyed our stay. The Sunrise Lodge is magical. We have four kids and they loved every inch of the lodge and the outdoor areas. The youngest two said it was the best place for playing hide and seek. Brad was so friendly and accommodating. Great tip about swimming at Glimmerglass! We would definitely stay again...the location is close to all the area attractions, but away from the crowds.

An at once serene and breathtaking atmosphere, the cabin was perfect for our family of five. Great views of the mountains and valleys of upstate New York, a quick drive to Cooperstown, and ample but homey accommodations make this place a great stay.

Cooperstown shower

We were in town for a bridal shower and wanted a place where the four of us could stay together. The Sunrise Lodge was perfect! It was so nicely appointed and the property owners were wonderful! It is a beautiful space for a quiet weekend away and near historic Cooperstown.

Great Property for Young Families

We stayed at Brad’s property for a long weekend visit to Cooperstown/Baseball HOF and had a terrific time. My young family enjoyed the abundant outdoors, fishing, nightly fires and exploration. Gorgeous setting and the commute to Cooperstown was very easy. Super relaxing and peaceful Brad was a terrific host. Highly recommend!

Great, serene, countryside location with view from a hilltop. Very well equipped kitchen and household supplies. Many many many outlets for charging devices. Comfortable beds. Although it only had one bathroom for three bedrooms, it was adequate for our foursome. Extra touches like lots of bottles of water and a full on s’mores kit to use with the fire pit were appreciated. Would love to have stolen one of those rocking Adirondack chairs, but… Alas… It wouldn’t fit in our suitcase. Very clean and the house was small enough that two window air conditioners more than adequately cooled the house.

The most peaceful VRBO ever!

Sunrise Lodge at Mt. Waiontha is a wonderful place to stay if you want to escape city life. The only sounds we could hear from the house were the sounds of nature. It was the most relaxing few days we've had in ages. Brad was a lovely host and stopped by to help us with the AC at one point. For anyone who wants to get away from a busy life, I highly recommend a stay here.

Our Cooperstown trip.

I’m only allowed to give 5 stars I would give 6 if I could. Being 20 minutes from Cooperstown the peacefulness of this property can’t be beat. The owners have thought of everything right down to the S’more’s Kit. Communications with the owner could not have been better. This property checked off all our boxes. We would 100% stay here again.

Outstanding retreat!

Our family stayed here for 4 days while our sons baseball team played in the Cooperstown area. We're so glad we chose this lodge as it offers a complete home away from home experience from the kitchen, bath, tv, internet, and temperature control. Theres absolutely nothing we required besides food and drink which was a convenient 10 minute drive away into town. If you're into fishing, bring your gear as the property ponds have some of the biggest fresh water bass we've ever caught! One small tip if you're over 6' tall, and it's no ding on the place, but watch your head in the kitchen and bath areas :) The host was very welcoming and available if needed. We hope to get back up to the area and stay here again!

Fall Getaway

Excellent stay! Brad was so helpful - answering my emails promptly prior to the visit and also helped us quickly during our time at the property when we couldn't figure out the TV. He left supplies for s'mores which were thoroughly enjoyed, and even left worms for my husband and son, who had planned to fish. We've stayed at maybe 5 places together as a family, and this was the simplest and easiest check-in and check-out process we have encountered. The house was perfect for our family and our kids enjoyed every nook and cranny (the loft was a big hit!). The property was beautiful and three of us enjoyed a long walk (and saw two groups of deer) while the other two fished (and encountered wild turkey). We were staying in the area primarily to see the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown (which was fantastic!) but I know we'll look back on the 'cabin memories' just as fondly as the museum itself. Highly recommend for anyone considering!
