Mary was amazing to work with and what a wonderful property. The house is perfectly located with access to the lake and near golf, the track, town, and more. The views are amazing, and plenty of room on the lawn and deck. The house has everything you need for an enjoyable stay.

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!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We have had a lot of family reunions here; people love being on the lake and yet so close to town. Looking forward to having you visit again---Mary
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!

Stayed with a group of friends from high school for a few days and loved the house. Perfect location and beautiful spot right on the lake. Highly recommended for a group.
Beautiful property with everything a large group could want!
We had plenty of space for our group of 10.
Lakefront tennis, kayaks, and large deck with a grill all made our stay extra enjoyable!

Thanks Joe, glad you had a great time!! Hope to see you again!! Mary
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!

Perfect weekend for our weekend getaway. Close to downtown and plenty to do around the house. House was stocked with the little things that you don't think to bring, which was great!
We had a fantastic stay - the property was clean, the deck/yard were beautiful with great lake views , and the location is so close to the horse track and downtown. Mary was responsive and gave a great tour to make sure we were all settled in. Perfect for a guys weekend!
