Erin's 40th Birthday Celebration

The house and property were both amazing! Our host Susan was always available to quickly answer any questions or concerns. The house could not have been more perfect for our 30's themed Murder Mystery Dinner that Erin's Sister and Cousin spearheaded and hosted. We all loved the house and could not have been more pleased with the accommodations provided. It was a huge plus that linenes, towels and paper products were in the house as well as plenty of coffee! I would highly recommend this property to anyone considering renting a house in this area!

Awesome home

We had a wonderful time staying for a week at this beautiful home. There was more than enough room for our party of 8 adults and 7 children. The kids did not want to leave the property as the home contained everything and anything we could possibly need. The owner was wonderful. Everything was great.

An amazing family vacation

This house had everything we needed. It has the feeling of complete privacy with the benefits of having everything you might need in close proximity. We walked some mornings to downtown Glen Falls and it was under 30 minutes to get to Lake George or Saratoga. Some days we didn’t even leave the property and just relaxed by the pool or in the sunroom. Kitchen is gorgeous and the house was stocked with everything we needed. So much space and different rooms to enjoy. We even had a private chef come in and cook for us one night. Susan was a wonderful host and extremely responsive. Highly recommend this home…it was perfect for our extended family vacation.

Great home for our post-Covid Family reunion

We had an amazing time at “Tranquility.” The kids had a blast. They enjoyed all the house had to offer. The adults made use of all of the amenities and spaces. Loved being able to cook in that amazing kitchen; we fed the whole troop pretty easily given all the space. We will definitely be back!

Amazing house!

The photos looked amazing but did not do this magnificent home justice. The home was spotless, comfortable and had everything we needed. Everyone had the best time. There was so much to do. We had teenagers and toddlers who were never bored. The game room with two TVs, music a pool table and more, kept everyone entertained. The house is huge with beautiful and comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms. It also had two offices so we managed to get work done as well. The owner’s taste is impeccable. We loved the sunroom for coffee in the morning. Susan, the property manager made herself available anytime we had a question. She was professional and very sweet and gave us great recommendations for activities for kids and for local restaurants. We will be back and will certainly recommend this beautiful home to friends. Thank you!

The house layout and amenities were terrific. The kids so enjoyed the pool, playground and pond. The kitchen was beautiful and butlers pantry was awesome for extra fridge storage. Overall we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Susan Siplon

I have been hosted hundreds of guests over the last 10 years since I first set up a short term rental in an apartment above the coffee shop I managed in Carrboro, NC. I then set up and managed 5 homes in the Chapel Hill area and have worked hard at maintaining my super host status. I moved to Upstate New York in 2017 and am continuing my love of hospitality and hosting short term rentals in the Adirondacks. I am an artist, singer, event planner, decorator, and world traveler. I have stayed in short term rentals all over the world and am passionate about guests having an exceptional stay in my properties.

Why they chose this property

This home is truly a luxury retreat and a dream come true kind of experience. This historic mansion is known as one of the most beautiful homes in the area. It is a perfect home for families, friends, and memories to be made in.
