Cozy Winter Cottage

This VRBO was the perfect place to stay for my weekend getaway as it was close to family as well as a ton of amenities that were enjoyable even in a snow storm. Hosts were kind and flexible with some changing plans and I would definitely stay here again!

A nice small cabin style home. A little remote, but that's not a bad thing. It reminded me of a cabin on the lake, minus the lake. Every creature comfort & attention to detail was to a "T". I'd gladly stay here again if ever I come back to the region. Only advice would be to have a few marker lights or similar to make it easier to find.

Very nice place

This place was very clean, welcoming and cozy, and had everything you would need for a short stay. They really thought of everything! It's too bad there was a state burn ban, because even the firepit area was well appointed, and a campfire would have been lovely:)

Beautiful little cottage in the trees

We enjoyed a very relaxing stay in this adorable little cottage. Perfect getaway for a couple. We cooked a couple meals, watched a couple movies, even enjoyed the outdoor fire pit! And, of course, thoroughly enjoyed the surrounding area. A gorgeous part of upstate NY!

Quiet, cozy, relaxing

This house had everything we needed for a nice, relaxing stay. The cottage was very clean and well- stocked, and the location is perfect for exploring the Albany-Schenectady-Saratoga area. The property owners are very friendly and easy to contact, should you ever need anything. We would definitely stay here again.

Great!

The space was very clean and cute. The host left a cute little note with some sparkling water which was a nice touch. The upstairs bedroom was warm and cozy and the downstairs was perfect for hanging out and watching TV. Probably ideal for one or two people:)

Great getaway outside Saratoga Springs

This adorable home was a perfect getaway spot for those looking to stay in the Saratoga area but who don't want to pay the Saratoga Springs prices. It was in absolutely immaculate condition in a quite neighborhood. The house has everything you need including a lovely firepit for a relaxing evening. Highly recommend
