Very clean & thoughtfully & comfortably appointed. Especially appreciated the fully stocked kitchen that permitted us to cook our own meals. Host was very responsive & welcoming. Location was perfect - very short drives to SPAC & fully equipped grocery store & a very pleasant 10-15 minute walk to downtown. Especially liked the close proximity to the small but excellent Art District & lovely Italian Deli. Would highly recommend this home & wouldn't hesitate to plan a return stay.

I stayed at Sharla's with my sister and close friends; we were visiting to attend a SPAC concert and stayed for the holiday. Sharla checked in with us before our stay, ensured our check in process was super simple and was easily reachable. Restaurants and bars were close by- we drove but most things were a 10-15 min walk. She also had a book at the house with recommendations that were very helpful!The house was very clean and Sharla provided all toiletries (and anything we may have forgotten!). But our favorite part of staying here was the cozy meditation nook in one of the bedrooms! Would definitely stay again!

About the host
Hosted by Sharla
I'm a lover of travel and have an insatiable passion for learning. I take every opportunity available to explore new things - including communities, cultures and cuisines. So far Paris, Capetown and San Diego are my Top 3 Travel Destinations - I highly recommend them all!
I'm an experienced host - having hosted over 250 groups of families and friends over the last few years. Our home is certain to give you the comfort you're looking for and deserve. I've lived in this area for over 20 years and am still discovering new places (and faces) to enjoy. If you're considering visiting Saratoga Springs, I hope you'll decide to stay with us. See you soon!
Why they chose this property
Our home is close to everywhere you'll want to be and everything you'll want to see.
The house is... - Only 1.5 miles to the Saratoga Race Track. Just a quick 5-minute car ride to get to the action. - About 2 miles from the Saratoga Spa State Park and SPAC. Drive, catch a Lyft or an Uber to your show in about 5 minutes. - Down the road from the Beekman Arts District which features galleries, shops, restaurants, art festivals and events throughout the year. - Only a quick 10-minute walk to Broadway - the center of Downtown where you'll have access to everything Saratoga, including the newly restored Universal Preservation Hall! All year long, Broadway is bustling with live music, breweries, incredible restaurants, art galleries, unique shops and boutiques you won't find anywhere else. - Located down the road from the beautiful Saratoga Winery and Saratoga Candy Company (home of the Peppermint Pig) - Right around the corner from West Side Rec - a recreational park with a new playground, sandbox, fields, tennis and basketball courts
Downtown Saratoga has it all but we’re also conveniently located near beautiful Saratoga Lake and Brown's Beach (15 minutes), Moreau State Park (20 minutes), as well as Lake George and Albany (both 30 minutes).
Coming in by bus, train or plane? We're a 3-minute drive from the Saratoga Springs Station (Amtrak, Greyhound and Adirondack Trailways) and 30 minutes from Albany International Airport.
What makes this property unique
Our home offers the best of both worlds. It's a downtown retreat where you'll be able to relax and renew in the comforts of home. When you're ready to explore or paint the town red, you can make your way to all that Saratoga has to offer in just a few minutes.
