Perfect location, comfortable stay!

This property was great for our small family’s long weekend. The location couldn’t be better- walkable to town as well as a few restaurants and cafes even closer but quiet in the evenings. The condo was functional and very comfortable— more like a fancy hotel suite than a rental (in a good way!). Definitely will be back for our next trip to Saratoga!

The property was amazing. An easy walk into town and also very close to the races. The host, Shawn, was very helpful and responsive. I accidently left my glasses on site, and he found them for me and returned them via mail for me. We come to Satatoga once a summer, and we would absolutely look to stay here again. We loved everything about it! Evan

Fabulous property in great location

We really enjoyed our stay, a mere 10-15 minute stroll to the racetrack and about the same to the downtown restaurants. Rooms were great and the living room felt bigger than it looked in the listing. Gas range for those wanting to cook for themselves. Helpful owner. We were very satisfied.

High-End Well-located Modern Apartment

This apartment is in the perfect location for exploring what makes Saratoga so special. It is very comfortable and has really nice furnishings, high-end bedding, a beautiful marble bathroom, great closet space and some nice equestrian artwork. Janice is a great host and has thought of all the things a renter needs -- Bath robes, shampoo, a blow dryer, several full-length mirrors and a lighted magnifying mirror -- its all there for you.

Lovely apartment, easy walk to downtown and park

This Carriage House apartment behind the main building shown in the photo was perfectly appointed and tastefully decorated with an emphasis on the horse racing theme. We cooked one night and found everything we needed in terms of cookware and condiments. We walked to the Visitor's Center, walked to the park for Frisbee and walked to main drag for shopping and dining. We could have walked to the horse track as well. This is a very nice VRBO property and we'll definitely stay again when next in Saratoga. Fun, convenient and comfy.

Perfection - peaceful, convenient, spotless and absolutely lovely

Feeling beyond grateful to have come across this beautiful hidden gem for our recent trip to Saratoga. The carriage house is set back in a quiet area, but was just a short walk to all the restaurants, bars and shops in this quaint little town. It was a quick walk to the race track where my dad and I checked out the horse racing museum and hall of fame, and the house was even close enough to make our way back by foot late at night after our concerts at SPAC. Shawn and Janice were delightful to deal with, recommending the not-to-be-missed restaurants during our stay. Their home is so charming and they thought of every last little touch in making guests feel comfortable and welcome. I simply cannot recommend them enough and hope one day I’ll be able to return.
