A great place to stay if you want some serenity. It's also close to Saratoga Springs and the surrounding area if you want adventure (both city and nature)
A wonderful quiet week on Galway Lake. The cottage is beautiful, well-equipped, and restful. The area is peaceful and great for families. It's pet-friendly and includes a doggie bed in the great room.

Thank you so much for the lovely review and for being lovely guests! Hope to have you in the future!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunrise Cottage. The house was very clean and comfortable. The listing was accurate and the location was perfect. The owners thought of every detail. We rent a lot and this one is a great property.
Peaceful, quiet and relaxing. Great location with stunning lake views. Nearby restaurants, shops and grocery stores. Close drive to Lake George and Saratoga Springs.
As our second stay at Sunrise Cottage, it was another wonderful time! The house is perfect, it’s roomy and very clean. The kitchen is fully stocked with all you will need. The lake is absolutely beautiful, so peaceful and serene! Astrid(host) is the best. She is super friendly and helpful. She is easy to contact and quick to respond. We are already looking forward to our next stay at Sunrise Cottage.

Thank you so much! Loved having you and hope to have you again in the future!
This lake house is a PERFECT getaway with family. Kayaking on the lake, 30 minutes from downtown, and a nice wrap around deck to sit on while looking at the lake - what more can you ask for!
Astrid was a GREAT host and super accommodating.

Thank you so much for the kind words! You were a great guest and we’d love to have you back!
A wonderful view of the lake and a very comfortable house with everything you need. It was so nice to sit on the deck and enjoy the peaceful lake right in front of you. Sunrise and sunset are especiallly beautiful. We didn't use the boats/kayaks but they would be fun. Manager was very responsive and quickly answered our questions.
This property was beautiful.Everything was clean and kitchen was stocked with essentials. Instructions were well written for air conditioning and fans. The location was on Lake Galway. The lake is clean and quiet with only electric or paddle boats. It is very relaxing spot. Owner responsive.
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.
We had a great stay. Our kids and dog were happy to swim all day and it was nice to have kayaks for the whole family. The lake is very quiet, the house was perfect, and the view amazing. We had everything we needed and were very comfortable. Fishing was also a hit.

Thank you so much for taking great care of our property! Hope to have you again
This place is exactly as advertised. We stayed for a weekend to take in a concert at SPAC. It is a convenient location, easy to get to town, but very quiet neighborhood.The “well equipped” kitchen really is very well equipped, there was nothing I wanted that wasn’t there. The setting is beautiful, the lake is clean and welcoming. If we had more time we would have made better use of it, as it was we enjoyed it. That we could have our two small, very well behaved, dogs with us made it perfect.
The house was well appointed, clean and had everything needed for a wonderful stay. The view of the lake is stunning! Astrid was very welcoming and available to answer all questions. Thanks for a great time.
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
