The space
Blue Heron Cottage is located 4 miles from the heart of historic Cooperstown NY in the quiet hamlet of Fly Creek. This property is the perfect escape for individuals, couples, or digital nomads. Close to the world-class Glimmerglass Festival Opera, the Baseball Hall of Fame, Dreams Park, museums, Ommegang Brewery, wineries, a pristine lake, hiking, fishing, and much more. This is a quiet cottage tucked away on the banks of Oaks Creek. There is a main living room with smart TV, bathroom, half-kitchen, bedroom, dining room with a writer’s desk, and two porches. On one side of the cottage is a beautiful horse farm. On the other side is an idyllic rolling creek where you can let your mind wander while you fish, or sit on its shores in an Adirondack chair, or even better yet, carry that chair directly into the current and exhale with a glass of wine. A quick 5-10 minute ride gets you anywhere you might want to explore.

The type of people who love staying here are traveling physicians and nurses for Basset Hospital, couples on romantic getaways, parents of Dreams Park kids, Opera lovers visiting for Glimmerglass Festival, music and beer connoisseurs visiting for Ommegang Brewery and it's concert series, digital nomads, writers and artists, or those simply looking for an escape from the busy life. We know you really need this type of break, so come stay with us!

Guest access
Parking on site. Access the nearby creek for fishing (bring your own poles), grab an Adirondack chair and sit in the creek with a glass of wine (one of our favorite activities).

Neighborhood highlights

Blue Heron Cottage is located in the quiet and charming hamlet of Fly Creek NY. We are a 7-minute drive from Cooperstown & the Baseball Hall of Fame, 20 minutes from the Glimmerglass Festival Opera, and 10-minutes from the Ommegang Brewery. I highly recommend the charming Fly Creek Cider Mill, a 4-minute drive. For those arriving with bikes, you can ride directly off the property to a quiet back country road away from most traffic.
