Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Capital District, New York

Wonderfully uneventful stay, overall very easy. Host was very friendly and communicative, really appreciated all the amenities she provided to make our stay easier. The house was nice and clean, with very clear instructions and easy check-in/check-out. My only complaint is that the layout of the house was less than ideal for a family of 4 with 2 small kids - the stairs are very steep and narrow and too wide for a standard baby gate. Otherwise, it was a 5-star stay.

We had a great time at the Zen Cottage! It was an amazing getaway with beautiful scenery all around! Alma and James were very responsive and helpful with recommendations around the town. The house was clean and we had everything we needed. We can't wait to be back!

No notes, incredible escape even in the pouring rain. The ambience, even down to the little things like walking through the door to classical music, was truly top notch.

We enjoyed our stay at Kevin's place. As many others have said, the surroundings are even more beautiful in person. There is another rental unit right across the yard, which we didn't realize, but ultimately we found it nice knowing there were other people around. The kitchen and bathroom(s) were notably gorgeous and comfortable - though we didn't cook, I've never seen a better stocked kitchen in terms of cooking tools at an Airbnb. A spacious and peaceful retreat.

Amazing place and surroundings! Were looking for a peaceful weekend away and it was just perfect - Kitchen had everything we needed for home cooking and a closet full of board games for some great family time - The view is breathtaking and a great firepit and small creek just below.

What an excellent stay - this airbnb was incredibly well stocked with kitchen supplies, games, extra linens, really anything that one could want. Amenities were high quality and very thoughtful.

The view is everything!! A great weekend getaway

We spent the weekend in the area and Tim’s place was fantastic. It’s loaded with charm, comfortable and very well appointed and stocked (right down to treats for the dog). The location is beautiful and the views are amazing. Can’t wait to return!

The unit is spacious and tastefully decorated. There are numerous restaurants within walking distance so there are plenty of nearby options if one doesn’t want to cook. The Albany Capital Center, State Capitol Building, and other downtown locations are only about 15 minutes away by foot if you want to avoid extra driving. Brian was very responsive as a host. We were never kept waiting for any questions we may have had. All in all, I would recommend Brian’s unit over pricier hotels in the Albany area.

Laney’s place was very comfortable and homy. She was attentive writing us a nice note with all the easy instructions. At some point, the weather dropped and she reached out to us before we did to tell us how to switch from ac to heat. It was a great location to unwind for short family friendly stay.

We loved how quiet and peaceful the location was. We also loved the homey touches- the local books, the honor store out back, the fact that there was the cafe under the apartment. The setting was beautiful and we loved falling asleep to the sound of the brook and the spring peepers!

A pinball lover’s dream! This Airbnb is full of quirky charm and rare titles you won’t find just anywhere—perfect for enthusiasts and collectors alike. The games played great, the decor was packed with personality, and the vibe was peaceful yet fun. Quiet, quaint location with a few great walkable restaurant options nearby. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and respectful of our space. We’d absolutely stay again!

My wife, dog, and I had a wonderful and peaceful stay at Michael's place. The land is beautiful, the place itself is actually even nicer than the pictures, and there is plenty to do in the area. We will definitely be coming back!

We were very happy with the place. It was well stocked for whatever you needed. We asked about breakfast places because we needed to eat out one morning and they responded that they supplied eggs, bread, English muffins, and coffee. Everything was super clean and updated. We loved sitting on the front porch swing and looking at the beautiful flowers. Bennington, VT (groceries, restaurants, and a great toy store) was about 15 minutes away and Williamstown was 22 minutes away. Would highly recommend if you need a place to stay in the area.

We had a fantastic stay at Mara's beautiful home. The location was very peaceful, and there were a number of snacks and drinks provided. A very short drive to Saratoga Springs and surrounding towns.

Gorgeous place - wonderful hosts - look forward to my next stay!

cute house and wonderful weekend

The AK Lodge was perfect for our multi family, with plenty of room for everyone to hang out. Having private bathrooms in each bedroom was great. Justyna was very responsive and always answered any questions within minutes. We will defiantly be back.

My daughters and I really enjoyed our stay at Jacks place. The house is beautiful, and the surrounding private property is stunning. Nicole was very helpful whenever I had any questions.

We loved this house! It was extremely clean, with sheets and towels that looked brand new. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. Entering the house was super easy. It was so peaceful, with a beautiful view to enjoy. We’d definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home, great location and friendly host. Bed was comfortable, kitchen had everything needed, games room was an added bonus.

We had a great time staying here! The house was clean and matched the description perfectly. It's the perfect place to stay to go skiing in the winter or hiking in the summer!

Our stay at Liz’s home was everything we hoped for and more! It was the perfect getaway to a stunningly beautiful, comfortable, and special place. It truly felt like home, and it’s clear Liz put a lot of thought into making the experience great. A stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and cozy feel made relaxation easy. We loved using both the inside and outdoor fireplaces and tvs, and were even treated to a surprise April snowstorm! Perched on a hilltop with amazing views, the location is private, yet just a short ride to town. Highly recommend The Walk In for biscuits and visiting a few of the cute shops! Liz was a wonderful host, and we will be back, for sure!

Alexander’s place is as described and look like the pictures. We stayed for one week end with friends to enjoy one day skiing and it was great! We had some trouble making the sauna and pool work at the beginning but Alexander sent someone to help quickly which was much appreciated 3’ drive from the slopes of Hunter and enough space to comfortably fit 12 people Would definitely recommend for a week end between friends or a big family reunion Thank you!
