Fresh paint and flooring in 2021. Enjoy the hustle and bustle of Saratoga Springs then take a quick drive to this 1,000 square foot retreat. Separate, off street parking. A short walking path leads you to your private entrance. Warm and inviting, this walk out apartment boasts and open floor plan with high ceilings and a 52 inch TV with Roku and wireless internet access.

The well equipped kitchen includes a large refrigerator that allows for storage of everything you bring with you, with plenty of room for bags of ice. Make coffee or tea and a full breakfast on the two burner cooktop. Use the microwave to rewarm leftovers from downtown or make surf and turf on your private grill (propane provided). Enjoy cocktails and charcuterie on your private patio (complete with 56” TV with Roku), or enjoy a nightcap by the pond-side fire pit, listening to the crickets. So many ways to relax! Spa towels and linens provided. Main house may be occupied during your stay.

Amazing Oasis, 15 mins from everything

We loved our amazing oasis just minutes from town, campus & the lake. Carrie & Scott had everything we could have needed on hand & there was nothing better than returning to the apt to watch the sunset over the marsh from the deck outside our room. Highly recommend this comfortable, cozy & relaxing spot on your next trip to Saratoga Springs!

A Lovely Place to Get Away

The place was quiet and peaceful, with all the necessities provided. The view was beautiful. The hosts just let me come and go as I needed to, and I appreciated the easy drive to all that Saratoga Springs has to offer. I wish I could have stayed longer.

Great place and location

The owners take great pride in their property. Everything was clean. Even had thought of the little things like toiletries in case you forgot to pack them. Great location for where we were visiting and lots of info on hand in the rental for places to eat and what was going on at the racetrack.

Anniversary weekend getaway

Stayed here Labor Day weekend due to having tickets to SPAC. I wasn’t expecting it to be in A suburban neighborhood but when you were at the apartment and on the patio he didn’t even realize because it was nicely tree line and wooded. The hosts were great. We just wanted to lay low and be left to ourselves and they were accommodating. Wonderful experience!

Great Stay for our Change of Plans Honeymoon

Due to COVID, my wife and I ended up making a shorter trip to the Saratoga Springs area for our honeymoon. Scott and Carrie were great hosts. Even though it's an apartment below their house, it was very private and we hardly knew anyone else was around. They were also very kind in offering some excellent places for dining and takeout, and some local activities to try out. The back patio area was great for enjoying a fire in the evening and coffee in the morning while watching the birds. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone traveling to the Saratoga Springs area!

Relaxing getaway

We loved that this place was secluded yet close enough to explore the area. Unfortunately we were only able to stay for 2 nights but it was really enjoyable. We especially like sitting on the patio and watching the birds and chipmunks. We also liked going to the winery and to Lake Local to sit outside by the water. We only wish we had a chance to actually meet our hosts to say "Thank you" for a nice and quiet escape. Next time we hope to attend a horse race. Even from the street the track property looked amazing. We highly recommend staying at this house.

Serene Saratoga

The rental was beautiful and very comfortable in a great location approximately half way between Saratoga Springs and Ballston Spa, about 4 miles distant from each. It was exceptionally clean and quiet being located in an upscale neighborhood. The back of the house with the entrance is adjacent to woods and a wetland and so is very quiet. Bird feeders are a nice touch! We enjoy our stay very much and would certainly return in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Scott and Carrie

Host profile image
Carrie is a teacher in Saratoga and Scott runs a local post office and is a career Army veteran. Married for 25+ years, we are expert fixer uppers and love finding new projects that make a house a home.

Why they chose this property

The prefect blend of quiet oasis and fun family neighborhood, we are close to everything- Ballston Spa, Saratoga, the Adirondacks, and all of the fantastic eating and shopping one could ask for. We cannot imagine raising our family and living our lives anyplace else.

What makes this property unique

The rental is truly private and quiet, and it a great place to relax and unwind after a busy day of vacationing. Don’t be surprised if you are greeted by birds and deer outside beyond the patio in the morning.
