Beautiful home in a bucolic country setting.

Amazing home for a family vacation. The lay out of the home is optimal for a family gathering in the common area with plenty of privacy as needed. Sauna & workout room were clean, functional & an added bonus. We really enjoyed the outdoor fire place in the three season was fantastic. 20’ away from the heart of Saratoga & all the wonderful restaurants. Only minutes away from Saratoga lake. Highly recommended!!!

Beautiful pristine home with wonderful amenities

Gorgeous, modern, comfortable home with plenty of space, sunlight, and everything you need to relax including well-equipped kitchen, luxury bathrooms, gym, sauna, and outdoor fireplace. We visited with my sister and her family (including grown-up children, teens, and elementary-school-aged kids) and we had a wonderful time just relaxing, cooking together, playing games, and enjoying the beautiful views and peaceful surroundings. Would love to visit again in the summertime! Many excellent restaurants and shops nearby in Saratoga Springs and Ballston Spa (15-20 minute drive.) Hosts were great about communicating details and instructions and immediately responsive to questions. House is in perfect condition, immaculately clean, spacious, and well-supplied with everything you need.

Great place

Our family enjoyed a long holiday weekend in this large comfortable home The space is artfully appointed and generously equipped. There is lots of room to relax. The kitchen had everything (!) and, downstairs, equipment to work off the calories. We loved it. PS: the aoft beds were like sleeping on a cloud.

A great place to stay

The pictures just don't do this place justice. The home and property were absolutely beautiful. The house was well equipped with everything needed for your stay. Communication with Luke was seamless. The house is located just about 20 minutes outside of Saratoga and grabbing a lyft/uber to downtown Saratoga/the race tracks wasn't an issue. 10/10 recommend! Thanks for the great stay Luke!

Great Family House

The house is perfect for a large group with plenty of space for the family to gather together. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and the wall to ceiling windows in the house brought in a lot of natural light. The yard is private and the location is very quiet. Great property with everything you need to enjoy time together. Communication with the owner was fantastic - he was extremely responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Luke Thara

Luke is a New York City professional and co-founder of the design gallery Vivamus, as well as the owner of the Saratoga area's newest estate property Rig Veda House. He tries to take advantage of as much art, culture, and restaurants as possible in the City and Upstate. He also enjoys hiking to get away from the bussle of the City and to appreciate nature.

Diane is an analyst in New York City and co-host of Saratoga's newest estate property Rig Veda House. She grew up in a family of ten children, so she knows what it means to take care of a home, as well as be a considerate host and guest. She loves allowing others to experience a new destination and to stay in a curated home.

Why they chose this property

Rig Veda House is 10 minutes from the kayaking and boating of Lake Saratoga, about 15 minutes from Saratoga Race Course, and 20 minutes from the center of Saratoga Springs, with all its shops, restaurants, and upstate small-town appeal. Essentially, by renting at Rig Veda House, you gain the sophistication of a curated estate property experience, without sacrificing any upstate summer property charms, except maybe lake-house wood panels and portraits of horses from the 70s.
