Mary is an excellent host for a wonderful property. The house is perfectly located with proximity to the track, golf, the town, and more. The waterfront view is stunning and the house has everything you’d need for a Saratoga getaway. All this combined with Mary’s low stress, good natured communication makes this a 5 star stay!

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!

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!

We rented the property for a long weekend for a bachelor party. This property is fantastic — beautiful and spacious, close driving distance to town, and comfortable accommodations. The house also has everything you could need. Mary and Craig were very responsive and great hosts. Highly recommend this house.

We had 13 guys stay here, the waterfront area is perfect for games, the lake is waist deep and sandy right off the dock. There’s a bar/restaurant nearby and you’re only 10 minutes to the track or town. Mary is very helpful, attentive, and friendly. This was our second trip and we’ll keep coming back!

Mary and Craig were fantastic hosts. They were extremely responsive and incredibly personable. We highly recommend this home to anyone looking for the perfect mix of Saratoga Lake, the track and Broadway. There was the perfect amount of space for our group and the yard was a huge bonus! Thank you again-- we hope to be back soon!
