Fantastic Stay at Mary’s Moon Lakehouse

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!

Perfect Saratoga Property

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!

Lakeside haven

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!

Great Guys Trip!

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!
