We had an amazing stay at this property in Saratoga Springs! Honestly, the house was even better than the pictures—spacious, clean, and beautifully kept. The host went above and beyond for us, super friendly and helpful throughout the entire stay. It was the perfect setup for our bachelor party weekend, with plenty of space to hang out and enjoy ourselves. Couldn’t recommend this spot enough!

Beautiful Lakefront Property

My group had a great time staying here. Our hosts did the upmost to make our stay as enjoyable as possible and the house and property are stunning. Only a short trip into town and the track, I’d highly recommend this house for a memorable trip to Saratoga. Thank you Mary and Mike!

Perfect family gathering place

This was the perfect place to gather our families and celebrate our birthdays. Franklin Micare sounded great, plenty of room for dancing, wonderful food by Airstream catering...it was an ideal party. And the bonus was that we could all stay there, cook up a breakfast feast and lots of coffee and enjoy some tennis and the lake view. We had been searching for a party venue and sleeping arrangements for all of us. Moon's Lakehouse is both, combined in one. We can't wait to come back!

Amazing Skidmore Grad Weekend!

What an amazing spot- and a perfect setting for all kinds of gatherings. Our daughter’s graduation weekend from Skidmore College could not have taken place in a better location. Short drive to SPAC, downtown, and Skidmore. Mary couldn’t have been nicer- so helpful and accommodating. And the breeze off the lake made a 90 degree day perfect!

a beautiful home and the perfect wedding spot!

My husband and I were married on this property a few months ago and we haven't stopped hearing from everyone (guests, family, vendors) how amazing our venue was. We had been looking for a space that was full of natural beauty and anything but a cookie-cutter kind of wedding, and that's exactly what we got! We couldn't have asked for a more gracious owner than Mary. The place was in great condition when we arrived (Mary and her husband had also done a lot of work to repaint and make upgrades to the property knowing there were going to be a few upcoming weddings that Fall) and they continued to maintain the property throughout the week so everything was at its finest for the wedding day. My family stayed for a full week and we had a great time playing lawn games, kayaking, grilling, decorating, and enjoying the beautiful outdoors all together before the wedding day. Mary was always available if we needed her and was so flexible in accomodating some of our special requests, and she was such a joy to have been in communication with in the months leading up to our stay. She truly cared that we got everything out of the experience we had been hoping for and treated us like we were a part of her family. A couple favorite moments I wanted to mention (though there are so many!) were kayaking around the corner to get lunch at a nearby restaurant (lake local) on the water, and looking out on my wedding day to see people had lined up chairs on the hill and were watching the sunset with a glass of wine, admiring the beautiful scenery. We absolutely would recommend this to others as a wedding venue or a vacation getaway - we want to go back with our families and enjoy the place all over again for a reunion! Thanks so much again to Mary and her husband for everything they did to help our wedding and our week turn out so fantastic.

One of the best rental properties I've ever stayed at, and definitely my favorite place in Saratoga.We had 15 people for a bachelor party and had plenty of space. This place was absolutely perfect for a bachelor party. So cose to downtown, the track, golf course, and right on the lake.Furthermore, Mary was a phenomenal host. So attentive with anything we needed, but gave us plenty of space. I plan to book this place again real soon!

2nd time staying here because it is by far my favorite rental I have stayed in. The house, views, amenities are great and has everything you need. Short uber to the multiple golf courses, race track, casino and downtown. Mary and Craig are great and Mary greeted us when we arrived to show us around the house. Hope to be back next year!

Spectacular Property

This property is amazing! The house has tons of room. There are multi-level spaces for entertaining. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need. It has spices, herbs, sugar, flour and much more. Mary and Craig have provided bath essentials and more in each bathroom. But best of all is the gorgeous view!! The huge deck and grassy area provide great spaces for get togethers. As well as your own tennis/basketball court! Huge waterfront area with a sandy beach, 3 kayaks, volleyball court, large picnic table and large dock! Many fish were caught off the end of the dock. The location is close to the track, golf, town, etc.Mary and Craig, the home owners, respond quickly to questions and are so welcoming. We would love to return! We HIGHLY recommend this unique and special home.

Fantastic Stay at Mary’s Moon Lakehouse

We had an amazing time at Mary’s Saratoga Lakehouse! Mary was an incredibly gracious host, going above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house is spacious, with plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy. The deck overlooking the water is absolutely beautiful, offering stunning views and a perfect spot to unwind. There’s also plenty of space for activities, both indoors and out. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would highly recommend this lakehouse to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway!

Lakeside haven

This amazing lakeside property has the best hosts imaginable. Their quick communication and willingness to accommodate requests is unparalleled.The home's expansive deck is equally good for quiet contemplation or entertaining, and the tennis court and kayaks created a resort experience so close to the track that we easily could bop back and forth throughout the day. What a wonderful place, inside and out!!! Thank you for sharing this terrific space with us! We hope to return! Thank you so much, Mary and Craig!
