Fantastic Stay at Mary’s Moon Lakehouse

We had an amazing time at Mary’s Saratoga Lakehouse! Mary was an incredibly gracious host, going above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house is spacious, with plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy. The deck overlooking the water is absolutely beautiful, offering stunning views and a perfect spot to unwind. There’s also plenty of space for activities, both indoors and out. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would highly recommend this lakehouse to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway!

Lakeside haven

This amazing lakeside property has the best hosts imaginable. Their quick communication and willingness to accommodate requests is unparalleled.The home's expansive deck is equally good for quiet contemplation or entertaining, and the tennis court and kayaks created a resort experience so close to the track that we easily could bop back and forth throughout the day. What a wonderful place, inside and out!!! Thank you for sharing this terrific space with us! We hope to return! Thank you so much, Mary and Craig!

Mary is an excellent host for a wonderful property. The house is perfectly located with proximity to the track, golf, the town, and more.

Great Guys Trip!

We had 13 guys stay here, the waterfront area is perfect for games, the lake is waist deep and sandy right off the dock. There’s a bar/restaurant nearby and you’re only 10 minutes to the track or town. Mary is very helpful, attentive, and friendly. This was our second trip and we’ll keep coming back!

Heaven on Saratoga Lake

I can't say enough about our stay. Mary and Craig are wonderful hosts. They stock their house with all the comforts of home. the kitchen is well stocked and everything you need is provided. the lake was warm and shallow for a long distance allowing our little kids a great playground. The house provides a lot of space for families to spread out.

Summer on the lake

We had a group of 12 guys and knew we needed a place to accommodate a bunch of 30 year olds and Mary’s house was the perfect fit for that. Amazing view of the lake upon entering the house and plenty of activities at the house to keep us all occupied. We played tennis every morning and made turned my friends into big fans after every game. We had a concert to attend on the first night and the venue (SPAC) was only 10 minutes away. I would recommend this place to anyone who has a large group and wants to sleep everyone comfortably. 10/10 experience

Easy to work with, basics are all there. Location is beautiful, good for a few nights. The layout is unique but worked for us. Hosts are super receptive, thoughtful and kind. It was easy to rent a boat and head out on the lake for the day and such an easy drive into Saratoga, SPAC, track.

What an amazing spot- and a perfect setting for all kinds of gatherings. Our daughter’s graduation weekend from Skidmore College could not have taken place in a better location. Short drive to SPAC, downtown, and Skidmore. Mary couldn’t have been nicer- so helpful and accommodating. And the breeze off the lake made a 90 degree day perfect!
