My first time in Cooperstown and my first time staying in a B&B...and now I am so spoiled because I don't think my boyfriend and I will ever have such a great experience at any bed and breakfast BUT the Landmark Inn. Here is why:

First of all, the Inn is gorgeous. When you walk through the front door, you are struck by it's Victorian beauty and charm. Then you meet Gary, the innkeeper, and he is such a nice and humorous guy that you instantly feel at home. When he showed us our room (#1 - fireplace, high ceilings, private patio) we had to physically tear ourselves away from it to go do the 'touristy' things. And during our 2 block stroll to Main Street, we kept smiling at how great of a deal we were given - just $145 a night. (I know this price reflects the off season, but their 'off' season is from October through May, so there is plenty of time for great deals.)

Breakfast is served at 8:30am, but if need be, you can make accomodations for a later dining time. We were warmly greeted by Sue, who cooked us up delicious raspberry poached pears and the best eggs benedict we have ever eaten. We felt so special with our own little table (their is no communal dining) and eating off fine china in such a charming diningroom. Breakfast here at the inn is the prefect way to start your day.

The Landmark Inn is so close to Main Street that your car will spend most of the time in the Inn's parking area. And even if you want to stray away, Ommegang Brewery, Cooperstown Brewery, Cooperstown Cheese Company, The Farmers' Museum, and Fenimore Art Museum are all under a 20 minute drive from the Inn.

The inn's website gives in-depth info on each of the 11 rooms, so you will definitely be able to find one that accomodates all of your needs. Some have lavish bathrooms if you would like to feel pampered, while others have ajoining rooms for families, and one has the fireplace for the perfect romantic get-away.

I have recommended this place to every person I have told about my trip to Cooperstown. And when we return, which we definitely will, I will not stay anywhere but The Landmark Inn. I told you...you will be spoiled!

The Landmark Inn was exactly what I was looking for. I took my husband to Cooperstown for his 40th birthday. We went with another couple. We stayed in room 1. Large room, with fireplace, couch and TV. Small bathroom, but the room made up for it. They stayed in room 10. Nice room, back entrance, with DREAM shower. (only negative with this room is you must walk outside to go to the main house. Gary is the Innkeeper and is VERY pleasant. The staff was there if you needed them, but left you alone if you wanted peace and quiet. The four of us made ourselves at home in the living room. Since we went off season, we had the ability to feel as though no one else was in the INN. The house is absolutely beautiful !! CLEAN and a true victorian gem !! If you are going to cooperstown, this is the place to stay.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Landmark Inn in early October 2007. We stayed in Room #4 and could not have been more pleased. I booked the trip as a birthday present so we really wanted it to be special and it was. The room was plenty big and had all the necessary amenities; fridge, TV, hairdryer, etc. as well as some nice extras, a jacuzzi tub and down comforter on the bed. The breakfast both mornings was gourmet and delicious; they even made sure to cater to my boyfriend's allergies.
The Inn was only a short walk to Main St. and the Hall of Fame. It was great to be able to park your car when you arrive and know that you will not need it again all weekend.
We have already told friends and family about this wonderful B&B and would recommend it again and again.
We had a completely wonderful and relaxing trip that turned out to be better than we could have imagined.

It's time for the Glimmerglass Opera fanatics to weigh in! Yes, the Landmark Inn is as fantastic as all the honeymooners, leaf-peepers and Baseball Hall of Fame-goers say it is. It is a relaxing, welcoming refuge for me and a friend during four days of opera-going and oratorio-attending. As repeat visitors of many summers, we are greeted by Gary and staff with bright smiles and attention to our every need. Everyone who's ever been there knows the breakfasts are great. As lovely as the house is, the grounds are large, serene, and the perfect place to read a book or listen to opera on your iPod. We re-up every year for the next summer season as we depart.
