Message us directly through your booking platform and we will get back to you as quickly as possible!

The surrounding area is equipped with gorgeous hiking trails and scenic walks ways (we recommend downloading the AllTrails app to see what nature activities are nearby!). There are a few beautiful golf courses nearby, including the Galway Golf Club! Please take a good look at your provided Guest Book to see the restaurant and shopping recommendations in the area!

All parts of the home including the (3) bedrooms, full kitchen, mud room with laundry, common area with couch and TV with Roku, wrap around porch with full views of Galway Lake, dock access, and access to our (3) kayaks, and rowboats.

With no gas motors allowed on the lake, you are able to enjoy the sound of the water splashing against the dock and if you are into bird watching, keep an eye out for the beautiful American Bald Eagle and Osprey diving for fish nearby. The Sunrise Cottage is equipped with 3 bedrooms and 2-full baths, as well as a beautiful living space adorned by skylights, making it the perfect place for relaxing and entertaining. Located just 25 minutes to Saratoga Springs and at the foothills of the Adirondacks. You can enjoy a day at the Saratoga National Race Track or by taking a walk along the beautiful trails the area has to offer (see our guestbook for recommendations!). End your beautiful day at the lake with a gorgeous sunset.

You will definitely need a vehicle to get around the area! Ubers are hard to come by out in these parts!

During the summers, lawn mowing is done between 12-4pm on Fridays! They are very quick when they come through!

For winter stays, it is HIGHLY recommended that you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Due to upstate New York winters, the roads can be icy and covered in snow. If there should be inclement weather during your stay, we provide (1) snow plow & salting of the driveway, should you need additional servicing it will be an additional $75 per plow & salt.

Sunrise Cottage

Sunrise Cottage on Lake Galway was what we hoped for, a very comfortable, stress free, fun place to stay while we visited Saratoga Springs. It was close to the city but still very much in the country. The neighbors surrounding us on Lake Galway were pleasant and friendly, as were the local restauranteurs and merchants. Sunrise cottage is definitely on the return to list

Beautiful Galway Lake home

Astrid's property is beautiful and exactly as advertised. We had more than enough room for our two families and one dog, and we all really enjoyed the use of the provided kayaks and row boat as well as the fire pit for nightly s'mores. I would highly recommend this property and would not hesitate to stay there again.

Just what we needed

We were in the area for a weekend celebration with friends so were busy with hikes, dinners, brunches, etc. in the Galway area, so the house was a convenient staging area for us. However, we did manage to enjoy the property during our downtimes and got out kayaking on the lake which was blissful. A really nice property in the area, which we'd recommend to friends.

July 20th group

We absolutely loved the property, sitting on the deck looking out over Galway Lake every day was calm and relaxing. We’d venture out in the mornings weather permitting, then spend the afternoon in the lake. Kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, floating or sitting on the dock soaking feet. There is so much to see in the area.

Beautiful stay.

The house is wonderful, so well equipped, everything in great working condition. The main room with the vaulted high ceilings, fireplace, view, sunrises and great games to play was so relaxing and peaceful. Everything very clean and well attended. we really enjoyed ourselves and i highly recommend a stay at this well located, beautifully appointed home. We brought our Thanksgiving dinner and cooked together and thoroughly enjoyed the time together. We went in to Saratoga for great Black Friday sales. We will come back to take advantage of the lake!!

Wedding weekend in the Saratoga area

Our family of 6 adults were lucky enough to stay at Sunrise Cottage on Galway lake for this past weekend (6/16/23 to 6/18/23). We loved the location, the cottage, the deck, the kayaks, the lake, the well appointed kitchen and supplies, the entire house. The interior woodwork was beautiful and comfortable. I asked my wife if she would be able to stay at the cottage for a week. Her reply, "I could live here". Our host, Astrid Miller, was in communication with us as needed and provided all the details for a relaxing stay. If there was one minor negative, it would be the bedroom with the bunk bed. That would be fine for young children but not so comfortable for adults. Other than that minor comment, we loved our stay. Thank you for making our wedding weekend memorable. Sincerely Bill M

Casually elegant!

Casually elegant seems to be the best way to describe the house on Galway Lake. Astrid has gone above and beyond in preparing the house for her guests. We had all that we needed and them some to make for a comfortable stay... even the dog had her own treat bag and beach towels! From morning coffee on the deck to afternoon swims/kayaking in the lake to evening cookouts - a great time was had by all and we look forward to a return visit.
