A few common questions to help you decide if this home is a good fit for your getaway:

How far is this Stream House from Saratoga Lake?

Our home is less than a 15 minute drive to Saratoga Lake and the several marinas in the area which have public access points. There is a new and amazing restaurant called 550 Waterfront that your crew needs to check out. This is one of Saratoga Lake's hottest spots for brunch, afternoon libations or a wonderful dinner with the family. Within a 10 minute drive you will be able to enjoy the most historic part of your trip, downtown Saratoga Springs and the famous Race Track and all of the amazing entertainment in the area! SPAC couldn't be more convenient as it is just a close drive away as well. Finally, take a drive north up route 9N you will be in the absolutely gorgeous Lake George and world famous Adirondack mountains in about 20-30 mintutes!


Can we cook at the house? BBQ outside?

Absolutely! The kitchen is fully equipped with your standard plates, bowls, utensils, wine and whiskey glasses, cups, pots, pans and much more. All appliances are ready to be used! We have a gas BBQ grill (hard line propane, so you will not run out :) but please make sure to turn off the gas line when finished) to enjoy in our beautiful outdoor deck area. The outside cooking area also has a custom made "deck bar" which we have ready for you and your guests to enjoy a social afternoon. In the kitchen you will also find a toaster, microwave and kuerig coffee maker complete with a variety of coffee and tea pods. Please do not use the indoor fireplace it is currently not functional :)


Is it suitable for children?

We have had several families and friends stay with us. With the large private property there is tons of room for outdoor activities for the kids. As with all houses situated near a stream/street please always be cautious of the kiddos getting near the water or the road and provide adequate supervision. The interior of the home has open spaces for the children to play and make themselves at home. Please be considerate of the front porch stairs.


Is there any games or other activities at the house?

You bet! We have a plethora of board games (our personal favorites), yard games, a fire pit in the backyard with 6 new Adirondack chairs for roasting marshmallows and more.


What about outside? Is there ample seating?

Yes, we have you covered! We have a couple different patio sets on the back deck with comfy cushions for you to kick back and relax. This is also where the hot tub sits, for relaxation after an enjoyable Saratoga Springs day.


What about the TV/Movie situation?

Great news, all of our TV’s are “Smart TV’s” which allows you to access Netflix, YouTube, Hulu or whatever networks you are subscribed to!


Are pets allowed?

Yes, we do allow pets under certain restrictions! We are proud owners of two rescue puppies ourselves and understand the desire to have your furbabies on vacation with you. Please mention that you would like to bring a pet with you before booking to answer a few brief questions to see if your particular pet fits our requirements. Any dogs must be leashed at all times outside and cleaned up after immediately. There is a $75 pet cleaning fee and additional fees may apply for any damages or pet rules broken.


If you’re still deciding or have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to message us.

Great spot close to downtown
We stayed at the Stream House for a bachelorette weekend. We had a lovely time and the place way clean and decorated adorably! The hottub and fireplace (both indoor and outdoor) made us feel right at home. It’s close to the downtown Saratoga springs but just far away enough to feel like a nice private getaway. The property manager was also very attentive. If I could give 10 stars I would!

Bachelorette Weekend!
What a great property! The house was nice and clean. The hottub was a real hit with our group and the outdoor space and deck is like no other! Hosts were very friendly and it was very easy to communicate with them. Would only recommend they update one bedroom photo to include the bunk beds! They were a great addition to this house for our group!

Review of stay
The house and location are great. We stayed during Saratoga races for 2 days this summer. The main thing that was quite disappointing was that the cleanliness and upkeep of the house was not up to our standards. Many things were not ready for us when we arrived including: house had a must cigarette smell, dirty hot tub, some of the sheets weren't properly cleaned, doorknobs and towel racks broken, no dish washing liquid. The pros are that the owners were exceptionally quick in responding to us and getting things fixed as fast as they could. Unfortunately, we were not able to use the hot tub during our quick 2 night stay. The other pros include that the house is spacious, the back porch is awesome and great for hanging out and grilling, and the yard is great. Also, we could bring our dog and the house was good for children as well.

The Stream House
This house is amazing! It easily accommodated 6 adults for the weekend. Plenty of room for entertaining. The beds and sitting areas were very comfortable. The house is very clean and modern. All the essentials needed are in the full kitchen. The huge deck was great for hanging out on and the sound of the stream in the backyard was peaceful. Great communication with the owners of the house. No issues at all. 10 minute drive to the race track and downtown area. Perfect house in a perfect location for a Saratoga getaway!

This is a fantastic find in a wonderful location! The owner (Troy) and the local liaison (Caitlin) were both very friendly and helpful, and the property was a dream. The yard, the deck, the HOT TUB, the billiards table...it was perfect for a group of friends. And the location is just outside of downtown -- very easy to get an Uber to local bars and restaurants.

Christmas Trip
My wife, our 3 children (6, 8, 10) and my parents stayed for Christmas Eve and day so we could celebrate with other family in the area. We arrived during a bout of pretty bad weather, but the homeowners were communicative and helpful with what to expect. Tons of space, bedrooms were great, living room and kitchen had everything we needed and kids loved the pool table, even though dad and grandpa kept winning. Big deck and hot tub was an awesome bonus, but it was single digits with snow on the ground, so that was not heavily utilized, but i bet it’s beautiful in the warmer months. Overall one of best places we’ve rented, not a single complaint.

Beautiful, clean home—- disappointed about communication
Our team stayed here in preparation for a wedding. This beautiful home was very clean and spacious. Great amenities such as pool table and hot tub were available. If you’re used to privacy, you’ll have to adjust to no window treatments of any kind on all the common living area windows facing a busy street, as well as in the bathroom that looks out on the deck. I’m disappointed that though there was a warm welcome prior to the stay with information, upon trying to check in until the end of the stay there was no communication when questions were asked. Needed key code (had to scroll up through previous messages to find it tucked in there) and Wi-Fi given was incorrect. When we inquired early in our stay, we weren’t given updated Wi-Fi info until after check out that weekend. Tough for a professor on our team who needed Wi-Fi. There’s always room for improvement, so this might be where the improvement is needed. Overall, nice stay in this beautiful home.
