The owners, Tara and Mark, are wonderful hosts and make you feel right at home. We stayed in the yellow room which was spacious, clean and comfortable. Each morning we awoke to the smells of freshly brewed coffee and a wonderful array of breakfast foods, such as buiscuits, bacon, fresh fruit, egg casseroles, and a peach cobbler to die for!... More

My wife and I just spent a perfect, magical weekend in Cooperstown--mostly due to the lovely room and great advice from our hosts at the Barnwell Inn. I only wish that we could have stayed longer, dallying over evening drinks in the library and enjoying the fall foliage even more. More

The Barnwell Inn is a big slice of heaven! You will feel right at home with the warm and welcoming hospitality of Mark and Tara Barnwell. This past weekend was our 4th visit to Cooperstown and 4th time at the Inn and we will never stay anywhere else. Mark makes the most incredibly awesome breakfast, that I look forward to... More

It was pure luck that we managed to book a room with Tara and Mark, hosts at the Barnwell Inn this past August. The experience was wonderful.

We originally planned to stay two nights. However, due to Hurricane Irene our vacation was extended by two days when all roads out of Cooperstown were flooded. Under normal circumstances these two days would have been viewed with intrepidation. But it was the warmth of our hosts, Tara and Mark, that made an uncertain experience an extremely pleasurable one. The... More

After staying here with my wife back in May, I brought my son on a pilgrimage to the Baseball HoF and we stayed with Mark and Tara Barnwell again. Just like last time, the hospitality was awesome, with the Barnwells being some of the friendliest people you could ever meet. Everyone here raves about the breakfast, and rightfully so, but... More

I took my husband to Cooperstown for his 75th birthday. He's LOVES baseball! I checked TripAdvisor and found great reveiws of the Barnwell Inn. We had never stayed at a B & B and decided to try it.
