Saratoga Smiles
It was very clean and pleasant. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The property is very close to the main area of Broadway Street where all the shops and restaurants are. We still Ubered everywhere as it was extremely hot and humid. Lydia was very kind and responsive to any questions we had.

Saratoga Weekend
Location of the property was great for walking into town for shops and restaurants and large garage was a nice plus for parking. Coffee shop and market were also a short walk away. The house was clean and well furnished. We suggest a new mattress in the bedroom we slept in as it sagged in the middle which made it uncomfortable for 2 people.

Modern cottage with all the amenities
Lydia's cottage was perfect for our first stay in Saratoga Springs. It had everything we needed and more. Communication with host was great. She gave us lots of suggestions around town, was prompt in responding, and assisted when we thought we had left something. A short walk to downtown in a quiet residential neighborhood.

Mid- Century Dream
We loved the mid century furnishings in Lydia's Cottage. It was sparkling clean and had everything we needed. We spent a lot of time on the front porch. We liked walking though the Beekman Street Arts District on our way downtown. My 3 year old nephew enjoyed the playground. We hope to stay again.

The house was exactly as called out in VRBO, great location with a very responsive host, very clean and well decorated. There was a very moist smell in the house each time we entered. The yard was not cut, not allowing us to bring over friends small children. The host requested we do a bit of cleaning prior to leaving, that was a bit shocking knowing we paid a cleaning fee. Would recommend the host house directions be put in a more positive spin.

Lovely house in Saratoga Springs NY
Our stay was wonderful and the house was located near downtown with lots of other walking areas near the house. The owner provided great food recommendations. If you are planning to prepare your own food the stove -oven was amazing. Fairly certain it is brand new. Highly recommend renting this house.
