'Toga Tranquility

We just returned from 2 weeks at Tim’s property and we cannot say enough about what a wonderful time we had. The location on a quiet side street is ideal - walkable to the track and town for so many excellent restaurants and shops, and only a quick ride to Saratoga State Park for numerous walking and biking trails (and golf, too). The inside of the house is perfect, providing everything you could possibly need for your stay. The cozy front porch was a great place for reading and relaxing with a cup of tea, but the real winner was the back yard and pool area which provided hours of enjoyment for our family. Tim was a pleasure to work with and checked in with us more than once to be sure we didn’t need anything. We highly recommend this property and hope to return again next year!

This House is PERFECTION!!

We spent a long weekend with friends (& our pup) to spend time downtown and to visit the racetrack. This house could not have been more perfect!! The location is within walking distance to everything including resutrants, shopping, nightlife and the horse racing - no ubers needed which made it easy for the group of us 8. The house itself was extremely clean (probably the cleaniest rental i've ever stayed in), comfortably fit all of us and the backyard with the pool was a game changer with the hot weather. Tim was great and super accommodating. This rental is an absolute must!!

BOOK THIS HOUSE!

I stayed here for a weekend with girlfriends. We’ve been coming up here for years to the Lake but never explored Saratoga very much. This house is the perfect home base, with super nicely sized living and family rooms, perfect bedroom sizes, gorg bathrooms, and the most amazing pool and backyard! We walked to all restaurants and the main drag in a few minutes. Tim was super helpful and the house was just perfect. Thank you!!

Amazing home, amazing location

We had such an AMAZING stay at Tim's home. The checkin was easy, and Tim was communicative throughout our stay when we had questions. The house is so clean and welcoming. The backyard is a gem - completely fenced in and such a wonderful escape. The Saratoga race track was less than a ten-minute walk (even though there are no spectators during covid, it was fun to watch through holes in the fences!). Walking in to town is 5-minutes, and the house is in the best neighborhood. We spent hours walking around and looking at the beautiful homes from the 1800s. Our dog loved lounging in the backyard in the sun. We would LOVE to come back next year when the race track is open. Thanks Tim!!!!!
