We stayed at the Phinney House during a little getaway to Cooperstown to celebrate our 10th Anniversary. We found the Phinney House to be very quaint, clean and lovely. It was a rare treat for us, given that when we travel with our children we usually stay at hotels. The breakfasts made by Charlene were especially good and truly delicious.... more

When I first started reading reviews on the 1805 Phinney House, I wondered if there were two of them in Cooperstown, because the glowing compliments really don't apply to the place we stayed. Given, there were some strong points -- the location/proximity to the HOF, the interesting history of the home itself and the adjacent property & the excellent breakfast... more

My wife, myself, my father, his wife, and their 11-year old son stayed at the 1805 Phinney House and we enjoyed ourselves extremely.

Jim and Charlene were both very friendly and... more

The breakfasts prepared by Charlene were amazing....far more... more

I wanted to surprise my boyfriend with a trip to cooperstown for his 25th birthday. When I went online looking for a place to stay, I saw a number of bed and breakfasts in the area. However, one place had a special package deal where we received two nights for the price on one! Not only was this a great... more
