Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Capital District, New York

We had an awesome time at Landon’s property. The kids loved interacting with and feeding the farm animals, specially the horses and sheep. The caboose was a pleasantly unique experience with great views, mood lighting, and comfortable beds. Girls loved going up and down the sturdy ladder to the loft bed in the cabin. The cabin is very thoughtfully appointed, with hot water supply and made our stay very comfortable despite the overcast weather. Our girls are looking forward to be back again soon to spend more time with the farm animals. Landon was always quick to respond and house info / instructions were succinct.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this Airbnb. Jason carefully thought about placement for everything and how things look. I appreciated the time he took to make the video explaining all the things the home offered, and instructions on the smart lock. It was truly a very peaceful stay. I had everything that I needed close to store but still in a peaceful neighborhood. Jason checked in to see if there was any that I needed and respond quickly if I had any questions. I will definitely look to book a stay agin when I’m back in the area.

This historic home is very clean, tastefully decorated, and has comfy beds. Another plus is the shower has plenty of warm water. The half bath downstairs has a nice washer and dryer. There were plenty of clean towels and blankets during our stay. I loved the location, as it is a safe neighborhood to walk around. Less than a quarter mile, there is a historic church with a beautiful garden. There is also a nice park on the river just down the side street. Many great places to eat within are within a few miles radius. Some we liked were Katie O'Byrnes, The Ritz on Union (good Italian food), Druther's Brewing Co, and the Iron Gate Cafe. Arthur's Market, directly across the street, is a nice place to get coffee, tea, baked goods, salads, and quiche. Although there is a little neighborhood traffic on front facing street, it is fairly quiet and relaxing at this location.

This was the perfect place for our stay. The house is small, as it is listed, and had everything we needed. Having a washer and dryer available was an added plus for us. The house is well taken care of and very clean. The back yard was a great and gave my husband a nice place to read and enjoy the nice weather. Codie is an excellent host. He responded promptly any time I had a question.

Wonderful stay. Wish it wasn’t pouring rain so we could’ve enjoyed the beautiful patio and fire pit! The host was extremely accommodating and in great communication. Would definitely come back.

The house and especially the location was wonderful. Very quiet surroundings and great nature. Contacting the very nice hosts was easy and uncomplicated. We found the house as it was described in the advertisement. The furnishings also left nothing to be desired. All in all, it was a lovely stay and we would want to request the house again at any time if we come back to this beautiful area.

We enjoyed our stay at Ermenita’s house. It was very clean and well appointed. Very comfortable beds and linens and many thoughtful touches throughout the lovely craftsman house. Quiet neighborhood with great Italian deli/store on the corner.

My husband, dog, and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we were so happy that we did. This place is so pretty inside and outside. The check in was the easiest check in I have ever done and this airbnb was the best one I have ever stayed at. We were close to all the activities we wanted to do, yet it was still quiet. We could walk to town very easily and it was a bonus that we could leave our dog in the airbnb so when we went on harder hikes she could stay home. It really felt like a home. On top of the vibes and aestethic of the house, Amy and Ryan could not have been better hosts. Amy was so communicative, helpful, and friendly during the whole time of our stay and leading up to it. Lastly, we had Justin the private chef and that was one of the best experiences my husband and I could have. This was such a nice getaway and this place is 100% worth the money. We will be staying here again. If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Thank you for making the honeymoon so memorable.

We had a great stay at Tim's place. The unit was well furnished and had lots of charm. Despite being on a busy street, the apartment was quiet and peaceful! Tim is an excellent host, easy to communicate with, responsive and very accommodating. Overall we had a great experience and would stay there again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Albany! From the moment we stepped through the door, this place felt like a cozy retreat tucked into the charm of New York’s capital. Immaculately clean, thoughtfully decorated, and stocked with everything we didn’t even know we needed. The location was ideal — just a short walk to Washington Park and a quick drive to all the historical spots. But the real standout? Our host. Incredibly responsive and warm. If you’re looking for a stay that blends comfort, style, and a true sense of place — this is it. Would give it six stars if I could!

My mom and I had a great stay at David’s place, it’s clean, thoughtfully decorated with all kinds of unique items and interesting artwork, really cool place. We went to dinner right down the street at Dove+Deer which was fantastic. We walked another block down the street and found an excellent wine shop with super friendly service and local selections. Wish we could’ve stayed longer! Thanks so much David, you’re very talented and have a great place 😊

Thank you Tatyana for hosting us for a 3 day, 2 night visit. We loved your historical charming home and it was perfect for our short stay in New York. We loved the penthouse suite, the attention to detail, beautiful washroom, bedroom, kitchen and living room area. We would stay here again if we’re ever back in the area. Thank you again!

This is a great place for vacation stay - clean and well maintained. Close to a lot of places, attractions, malls, and a variety of restaurants in the area. Joe is a great host - helped us with check in and made sure we are comfortable. We highly recommend!

Was very nice and clean

Definitely a space with great level of thoughts and details makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. Surrounded by the nature, you can immerse yourself in the beautiful mountain view and bird chirps, very peaceful and tranquil. We saw deers walking by, rabbit hiding in bush from raining, and a little chipmunk busy around the house all the time. Thanks Katey for sharing her beautiful home and being a great host, super responsive and provides lots of useful information. We had an amazing time!

Betsy was once again a wonderful host. The apartment was clean and comfortable, and she provided many thoughtful extras. We enjoyed our stay and will certainly book with her again.

This condo is absolutely beautiful and comfy! We especially love the bed and pillows.

I couldn't believe how responsive Agnieszka was! She made every effort to make sure my husband and I had a great stay. Her comfy deck, cozy fireplace, and nice shower were a godsend after my husband and I decided to brave a rainy hike. I think the place is very reasonably priced considering access to a pool and laundry are included. It's just down the street from hikes and resturants. I also enjoyed taking classes at Mountain Breeze Yoga just down the road.

Luiza was a wonderful host. She provided detailed check in and out instructions, as well as local recommendations for our stay. Her place was exactly as pictured and cleaned wonderfully for our arrival. We hope to be back for another ski trip!

Carla was a wonderful host. More importantly her rental was beautiful and very comfortable. Would strongly recommend and we look forward to going back (when there’s less snow)!

I highly recommend Suzanne's place for anyone visiting Windham! She was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the booking process and my stay. As someone who travels constantly for work, my schedule can be quite unpredictable, and Suzanne was unbelievably accommodating and flexible with my changing needs. I truly appreciated her understanding and willingness to work with me. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Windham, and the view of the ski resort from the back deck was an unexpected bonus! I only wish I could have stayed longer. I'm already looking forward to my next visit, not just for winter skiing, but also to explore the beautiful surroundings throughout the year.

Stunning location a short walk through lovely Congress park to downtown Saratoga. Scrumptious bakery in easy walking distance. The apartment was delightful: very clean with all the essentials stocked. We loved being able to stop back in during the day for a quick recharge before getting back into the middle of everything. Bright and sunny during the day and quiet and peaceful at night.

Was as advertised. Would recommend

Gerry’s place was a great, quiet stay for us. Close by to Kaaterskill and many other Catskill mountain attractions. Gerry was great at communicating and went out of his way to be helpful with our checkout procedures. I would definitely stay here again!
