About this property

This unique and charming country house is surrounded by rolling farmland but is only 8 miles from downtown Saratoga Springs. A long wooded driveway gives the house privacy and seclusion; it is not visible from the road. The back deck has sweeping views of farmland, while the front deck overlooks the valley. The house is situated on five acres of a former apple orchard, and many fruit-bearing trees continue to thrive on the property.

This is the perfect year-round getaway. For families interested in beginner mountains for skiing or snowboarding there is Willard Mountain in Easton (you can see the back of the mountain from the house) or West Mountain near Glens Falls, both about 30 minutes away. For more advanced skiers/boarders there is Gore Mountain, about 50 minutes away.

The house is a classic post and beam structure with an open floor plan, ideal for entertaining. A two-story cathedral ceiling opens over the kitchen and dining space. The decor is Adirondack, with numerous antiques throughout.

Nearby Saratoga Springs offers horse racing, museums, shopping, restaurants, a farmers' market, and countless other attractions. Local farms offer opportunities to pick your own apples, blueberries, and other produce when in season. A fully outfitted kayak shop operates seasonally on Fish Creek, just 3 miles up the road.

Saratoga Summer

What a great house! Old world famhouse, on a lovely quiet property. The home owner was wonderful to communicate with, he answered all questions and gave perfect directions to the property, making it very easy for us to get there. The house had everything you'd need to cook a meal and relax with friends and family. The bedrooms were all very spacious, and beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were great, and the available washer and dryer were helpful too! The deck was very nice, and such a pretty view of the back of the property. The parking area is plentiful, and the kitchen and living room also had lits of space to relax in. We were a 10 minute ride to the horse show grounds, making it very easy to get to and from early in the morning, and later on in the evenings to do night check on our horses. We were close by to dining options, gas stations and the lake. This property is in a perfect location to explore the Saratoga area! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

NY Revolutionary War trip

The property was perfect for our NY Revolutionary War trip. We had a wonderful tour of the Sarasota Battlefield en route to Ticonderoga. The property was very close to the battlefield, and within 20 minutes of the NY Thruway. The house slept 6 of us comfortably, with 5 beds plus one bunk bed. There was a big outdoor deck overlooking a large grass field with apple trees near the house. Very private, as you could not see the house from the road. The house had every amenity we needed. Many thanks to Chris for contributing to a great trip for my party!

Secluded post and beam home

Secluded post and beam home. Recently attended a family wedding in the area and had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful location. The house was very clean, the beds very comfortable, The kitchen well stocked with essentials and the WiFi was great! My granddaughters loved running in the pasture and apple orchard surrounding the home. Christopher, the host was very gracious and communicated quickly with any questions we had. Hope to return someday to this beautiful house.

Saratoga

Great stay in this rustic, quiet home. Not too far to town, Saratoga state park, pickleball and track. Very private, we loved the outdoor shower. The kitchen is well stocked and there are books and games for those who wish to use. Christopher was a very responsive host!
