We only stayed one night, the desk clerk told us it was getting to the end of the season. It was very quiet and beautiful, the view of the lake is truly wonderful. It’s about a 5-10 min ride into Copperstown, not bad at all.
Great motel with easy access to Cooperstown. Well maintained and cared for, can tell the owners take pride in owning the property. Access to lake Otsego is a bonus!
Remote motel that is quaint and on a major road in and out of town. The room itself was quiet and dark. The bathroom was in rough shape: floor tiles ripping apart, uneven floor from water damage, and lacked thorough cleanliness.

Biggest complaint was that it’s a very smoker-friendly property. I selected a non-smoking room, and there was an ash tray outside my room, the room smelled musty and like stale smoke, and in order to walk anywhere on the property you have to walk past a dozen guests all smoking all over the place. If it weren’t for this, I’d say this is a quaint little motel near the water and it’s nice that they offer paddle boards and a swim area for guests. Coffee maker in the bathroom also seems unsanitary, it’s a nice thought to provide a coffee maker to guests though but I’m not using one that’s been sitting in a bathroom for who knows how long..
Enjoyed this motel. Right on the lake about 6 miles fromthe village of Cooperstown which was perfect. The room was very nice and clean. The only slight problem we had was the people above us were constantly talking and moving around. The walls were pretty thin and woke us up in the early morning,. But the stay was very enjoyable otherwise.
This place was far beyond my expectations. Well located, amazing view, comfortable, and very friendly staff. No complaints here, I would definitely stay here again if I was ever in the area.

Priced accordingly. We were there for summer tournament at Cooperstown Field of Dreams. 20 min drive. Dining by the lake at the Blue was great. Only complaint I have is people parking wherever they wanted instead of in front of their unit. Management said there are no assigned parking spaces. Really? Goes without saying. Otherwise, it was an ok experience.

I really liked the Lake View Motel. I haven't stayed in a motel for years! It was very clean and the grounds and lake view were pretty. It's dated, but I found that nostalgic. My son enjoyed fishing at the lake while I sat in a chair and relaxed by the water.
We had to wait until the last minute to select a property to see the National Baseball Hall of Fame, and The Lake View Motel was one of the very few available and only 5.6 miles out of Cooperstown. The support staff was very friendly. A maid cleaned the room, brought new towels and toiletries both days of our stay. The price was very reasonable considering the huge crowds of vacationing families at this time of year. Our grandson got to fish of the motel's dock, which made him very happy.
