Amazing house just outside of Saratoga

A great property on the lake just outside of Saratoga. It is quiet and less than 10 minutes to anywhere in Saratoga. The owners were great. They were very accommodating and gave a us a long list of thinga we could do and places to eat. I highly recommend this rental.

Nice stay

The only issue we had was a noise that recurred from an appliance in the downstairs that was some type of water pump. It was continuous and kept one of the guests awake at night.
