So accomodating and warm

Dave and Kathy accommodated us at the very last minute for our trip to see our family. Our other stay fell through and Dave and Kathy were wonderful. They even helped by waving a fee for my smallest child. It was so warm and friendly. It snowed and they were nice enough to shovel and let us know that we left our car interior lights on. What a wonderful stay and a great home away from home.

Fantastic for our family

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The hosts Dave and Kathy were incredibly welcoming and communicative. We stayed for 5 nights during Thanksgiving to visit family that lives nearby. During our visit, the first big snow of the season arrived, and the hosts were helpful and kind to help us deal with the weather. The beds were some of the most comfortable we’ve experienced in a VRBO, and the neighborhood was quiet. It was also in the perfect location to get around town. Thank you for all the hospitality, we hope to stay again soon!

Just as advertised

Clean, pleasant, and affordable compared to what else was out there. Very good communication with the owners, too. Nice coffee pods and mini-muffins for us, and comfy beds. We didn't use the pool. This checked all our boxes.

About the host

Hosted by Dave and Kathy

Host profile image
My husband Dave and I have lived in the area for decades and raised our 3 children here. We are retired Grandparents now and love hosting guests as well as traveling ourselves. We are active and love living in the Saratoga area. There is so much to do here from horse racing, to concerts, to fun on the lakes and in the Adirondack Mountains. There are plenty of parks and biking trails and many community events throughout the year. We live in a quiet neighborhood just off the beaten path with plenty of space to relax and unwind.

Why they chose this property

Quiet and safe wooded neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

Large space, inside and out. Safe and close enough to downtown and all the action without the noise. Sleep peacefully!
