About this property

Home on the River - stunning views and Comfy Beds

Wake up and enjoy a cup of coffee overlooking the Hudson River from your kitchen. The back yard backs right up to the Hudson River and has beautiful views of wildlife and creates a naturally calming atmosphere.
We love comfortable beds and sheets so we have invested in them for your enjoyment too. Please note that we keep duvets on blankets that get turned and replaced with each guest's stay too. This is not common in my experience.
What I love about this town is that I can walk to the town pool, playground, tennis and basketball courts. The Waterford Harbor is just across the main road through town, also in walking distance. This is where the Tug Boat Round-Up is held and the fourth of July celebratory fireworks are set off. Looking to be in a central location while visiting the seasonal activities like skiing, hiking, biking, boating, fishing, and the Saratoga Track await you in lovely Saratoga County. Albany has lots to offer for the avid traveler too. Go for a walk at the capitol mall at sunset for some beautiful views. Check out the NYS Museum and its current exhibits.

Age requirements. Must be 21 or over to book. I do not accept groups of young adults 18- 25.
Generali Global Assistance standard insurance has affordable travel insurance. I highly recommend getting travel insurance to property your self in event you have to cancel last minute.

Great house in Waterford
My family enjoyed our stay in Waterford. The house was very nice and had everything we needed for a nice weekend. Ariel was great and promptly responded to any questions we had. Would certainly stay again.

Cozy waterfront lodging
I came up for the weekend with my friend as a getaway from the city (Baltimore). The lodging was comfortable and had all the accessories we needed. My favorite moments were in the mornings when I could drink my coffee and read peacefully right by the Hudson river. And thanks to a recommendation from Ariel, we were able to have a great hike up by Lake George to round out the weekend.

respite with family following surgery
We stayed for two weeks following a surgery and Ariel, the owner, was extremely considerate of the situation. She ensured steps and walkway were shoveled and salted at all times and checked in to see if we needed anything. We had a couple of minor maintenance issued that were addressed immediately. The house was clean quiet and perfect for our needs with the only exception being the shower which is not ideal for someone trying to get up that high following surgery. Beds and couches were extremely comfortable. Thank you, Ariel, for your hospitality.

About the host

Hosted by Ariel Fleischman

Host profile image
Mike and I have been together for a little under a decade, we fell in love with traveling ourselves in 2018 during our honeymoon. We stayed in an AIRBNB in Athens, what an experience. A little more about me, I went to school for archaeology at Suny Albany, while raising my son for his first 9 years with the help of friends and family. I had a hard time finding my way in my 20's but I think it was to learn humility, love and patience. I graduated with a bachelors degree in Anthropology and started at my first brokerage that year. My husband, Mike is a commercial HVAC tech for stewart's shops and before that managed 900 apartments, You will also meet or see my Son Cyrus he is a sweet relatively shy " adult".

Why they chose this property

Mike and I bought our first home together in 2015 in Clifton Park where we lived for 4 years. We then moved out to update the house to take the next step in our life, to buy an investment property. Life happened so our plans changed a little and we moved to Waterford to be closer to my brother's family. I had sold the previous owner this house and fell in love with it then. I am a local realtor and saw the potential for river access immediately.
