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. The waterfront view is stunning and the house has everything you’d need for a Saratoga getaway. All this combined with Mary’s low stress, good natured communication makes this a 5 star stay!

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.

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

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!

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.

Amazing property for our wedding weekend
Moon’s Lake House was perfect for our wedding weekend! We got married in the area and had our families stay on the property during the weekend. We also hosted our small rehearsal dinner, had the bridal party get ready there, and even had our first look overlooking the lake, which all worked out perfectly. Mary was also so helpful in providing suggestions and recommendations. Our parents loved the property and views, and the house was really well equipped and stocked. Definitely recommend the property to everyone!

Yes, the house is right on the lake. Yes, the views are amazing. It really used to be a restaurant! Very very cool. Mary and Craig have to be the best VRBO hosts around. I really can’t say enough good things about them. We spent the weekend with friends but will likely return with our children to enjoy all the amenities!
Overall, really a perfect experience.

Everything was great. The property owners were very friendly and helpful. The location was great. The house is huge. There is a great kitchen, and really nice deck that looks out onto the lake, and there is a propane grill on the back deck. We definitely plan on coming back.

We had a fantastic stay at Mary’s place. The property was awesome, plenty of space inside and out and perfect for a large group. Location was very convenient to Saratoga Springs downtown area and you are right on the lake. Mary was extremely responsive and flexible when we came a little earlier than planned, which we really appreciated. I highly recommend staying here!

No Need to Look Any Further, This Place is Perfect
Mary is an incredible host. She had the A/C running when we arrived and met us at the door for a tour of the property. The entire house was clean and well-kept with more than enough space for eleven 25-year-olds. The kitchen was fully stocked with plates, cups, utensils, pots, pans, etc. The backyard overlooking Saratoga Lake was an awesome spot to hangout and play beer die. The red deck in the back was perfect for beer pong, grilling, and entertaining guests. The volleyball court next to the lake was great for some group matches. 550 Waterfront (a beach bar with unreal vibes) is a 5-minute walk down the road. The casino, racetrack, golf courses, and downtown bars/clubs are all a short ride away. I legitimately don't think we could have had a better time. Mary and Craig were so friendly, commutative, and gracious. The next bachelor party in our group is going to have a tough time beating this one.

Weekend with Friends
The house and spacious yard had everything we needed and more. Plenty of beds and room inside and we BBQ'd on the deck with lake views. So much to do in Saratoga but at times we didn't want to leave the house! Thanks Mary for being such a gracious host!
5.0
This was the perfect place to stay for a large group. Short distance to multiple golf courses and a short Uber to downtown for nights out. Easy access on the property to the lake. Mary made the process of booking, checking in and checking out super easy. Not to mention the great recommendations of things to do in the area. Perfect place for a large group getaway!
