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!

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!

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!
