The house was amazing and we all had such a good time. Very clean and in a perfect, quiet location. The host was awesome and we had no issues whatsoever. 10/10 highly recommend
My entire wedding party stayed at the castle together and we loved all the space and rooms. The Karaoke machine was a bunch of fun and the kitchen was massive with everything we needed in it, including some seasonings that we forgot to bring ourselves.
The hosts were also extremely attentive to their property and constantly available for questions during our stay. We'd love to come back again sometime!
We had a great time! The castle is definitely the place to stay when going to Saratoga Springs with family. There were multiple sitting areas, both inside and out. The new hot tub is amazing. We would definitely rent again!
This was the most grand experience my family has ever experienced. We stayed 4 nights as a multi-generational reunion/birthday celebration. The place is massive and the outdoor patio area is terrific if the weather permits.
This property exceeded any expectations we had! Gorgeous house and property, we had an amazing long weekend, I wish we were able to stay longer! Highly recommend staying here and I hope we will be back!
This is the perfect place for a large gathering of old friends ! Extremely clean house, fantastic property with activities that everyone can enjoy. Hosts were very accommodating and open with communication — would return in a heartbeat
It's hard to find a place large enough for 16 people. This once was perfect and left plenty of room to spare. No nearby neighbors. Huge patio and yard. Solid kitchen and grill set ups. Great for a bachelor party!
The house was well appointed and very clean. Bill and Lucy met us upon arrival and were extremely hospitable, it was obvious that they loved the house and take great pride in it's upkeep.
My husband and I rented this property for a small intimate wedding celebration and we couldn't have been happier with our decision!! The host was extremely communicative and professional as well as accommodating! The home had anything you could need or want - from a beautiful backyard, ping pong, pool, firepits, hot tub, karaoke - you name it! 10/10 would recommend to friends or family!!
The house is very spacious and clean. It has a lovely yard for hanging out with friends. The only issue, the cabinets and fridge had left over food and condiments. I would prefer not to have others left overs in the house But otherwise, it was a great place to stay with a group of nine women.
We rented the Dragon's Lair for a large gathering of friends for a week in the Saratoga area. It was perfect for the occasion. Large place with a lot of bedrooms. The ability to spread out was great and the amenities were also top notch.
Family with 5 children stayed for summer family vacation at this house. Was very clean and had great Time.
Owners were extremely helpful and easy to deal with. Great communication.
Took a weekend trip up to Saratoga for the 4th of July with some friends. House was exceptional. Absolutely beautiful and more then accommodating. Everyone had their own room and was very spacious. The rooms were beautiful and the house was spotless. The owners were great and answered all questions in a timely manner and were more then helpful! Have nothing was amazing things to say! Would totally stay again if I’m ever up there!
I had my bachelor weekend here and it was an excellent choice. The residence was very clean and very spacious for plenty of guests. The backyard was great for cornhole, pong, lawn games and the hot tub is a nice bonus. Only 10-15 min drive to downtown Saratoga. This is a very unique place! I highly recommend it.
We booked the property for a pre-wedding dinner along with a place for my family to stay and it was beyond amazing. Working with Lucy was amazing. She was always responsive and helpful and easy to work with. The pictures just do not do the property justice. It's beautiful and looks amazing in pictures.
Really enjoyed our stay. Great house for entertaining with plenty to do with the hot tub, grill, cornhole, pool table, ping pong, and karaoke system. The owners were very responsive and the house was very clean
We had a small family covid wedding and this property was just perfect. Thanks to Bill and his wife we had a wonderful time full of beautiful photos and memories. Everything is just as says in description of property. We truly felt like royalty staying in this unique get away
