About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Relaxing tranquil setting, hot tub, fire pit; Pet friendly.

Clear your mind at our tranquil home located minutes south of the Adirondack park. Perfect for birthdays, girls weekends, anniversaries, special occasions, or a weekend away from the children, this inviting space offers both the peacefulness of a wooded retreat and nearby access to beautiful Historic Saratoga. Two bedrooms, two baths on a quiet, wooded lot, this cozy space offers lots of parking and an outdoor sanctuary.

What we love about this property:
The property offers everything you’d need for a reclusive, regenerative trip or an exciting, adventure. Hiking, boating, white water rafting, and kayaking are all a short drive away. Enjoy dinner and drinks on Broadway in downtown Saratoga. Take in a concert at SPAC, enjoy a walk in the expansive State Park, or try your luck at the Racino.

Enjoy your coffee or dinner outside on the attached deck while taking in the sounds of nature. Open skies offer a breathtaking view of the stars. Listen to tree frogs while you make s’mores and enjoy a serene campfire. Property offers a full kitchen stocked with items to help you cook a beautiful at home meal. Barbecue on the porch or enjoy a summer picnic down by the brook, which runs along the perimeter. Spend the evening relaxing in the large hot tub, enjoying the soft glow of the string lights. Take an early morning or post dinner walk on one of the nearby trails.

Other things the area offers:
Child friendly activities include Saratoga Children’s Museum, the Peerless Pool, a beach at Moreau State Park, playgrounds and picnic areas at the Saratoga State Park.

For those who don’t mind a little drive head south to Albany to visit the state capital buildings, take in a play at Proctors or a visit to the state museum. Head north to Lake George and cruise the lake on the Minnie-Ha-Ha or shop at the outlet village. For history buffs- visit the Saratoga Battlefield or Fort William Henry.

I’m available to help with building the itinerary for your trip. Ask me how I can help make this a memorable experience for you.

Please review the welcome binder with house rules, on arrival.

Perfect

Our stay was perfect. The place is brand new and clean. The host is very responsive. The hot tub was fabulous. I can’t say enough good things about this place. This was our second stay at this Verbo and I highly recommend staying here. It is very calm and peaceful. They even have an outdoor fire-pit!

Pleasant Experience

Spent most of our time at the track but it was nice to come back to a quiet, "tranquil" place. Did not use the hot tub but it was nice that it was an option. Made friends with the "guard" rabbit that greeted us often. We highly recommend.
