Family-friendly holiday rentals in Schenectady

Fantastic space for a large group. We had 10 people for a New Year’s Eve ski weekend, and this was the ideal spot for it. Hot tub was a great treat. Be warned - the floors are squeaky, so if you’re a light sleeper in a large group bring ear plugs.

Great place that was clean, comfortable and cozy. There were excellent instructions for everything and my family loved the hot tub!

This place was beautiful! The cabin was so cute and cozy and extremely clean! All of the decorations, furniture, blankets, etc made it the perfect place for our wintry weekend getaway. We did some snowshoeing around the property and had so much fun! Then we got to come back and relax in the hot tub on the porch and watch the snow fall. If you’re looking for a place to be able to disconnect and just have a peaceful vacation, this is the place! Thank you Chris for sharing this spot with everyone! We would love to come back in the summer to explore some of the area lakes!

Amazing place to stay as always! Gorgeous decor and vibes. Great location and super seamless check in and check out. They are the best hosts - super responsive and gave us excellent recs for the area. Can’t wait to come back.

Ray’s home offered the perfect weekend getaway for our family. The house is on a beautiful property with a lovely back yard, small bridge and my kids loved the fire pit! Ray was responsive & very friendly! We look forward to coming back again next time!

Location and space worked out perfectly for our little surprise birthday party. Clean, comfortable, spacious. Charming old farmhouse.

The place was amazing and featured everything we were looking for. Tammy and Ed were super hosts and made the stay extremely enjoyable. We would stay here again.

My family and I had a wonderful time! Larry is very sweet, gave us a tour, offered to help with docking our boat and even offered my husband the tools to fix the bunk on our trailer. The house is big and beautiful!! Very clean, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need!! The hot tub is definitely a bonus as we used it everyday!! The dock was perfect, we had room for our pontoon boat and jet skis. All around the perfect place for some R&R!!! My family and I love Cossayuna Lake as we are semi local and it was our first experience with an Airbnb. Thank you Larry for sharing your home!! Highly recommend this for your next vacation!!

Super responsive management of property. It was a very rainy weekend, so my daughter and I really enjoyed the large TV with the option of many streaming channels. Bed was comfortable and the place was neat and clean. Fantastic location as well.

This was our sixth visit to Maple Hill Farms — we just can’t get enough of it! Philip truly the best host, and his home is pure magic. We’re so grateful to have met him and to experience his incredible hospitality and a property filled with the most amazing creatures.

Arin and Brian’s place was amazing. They were incredible hosts and thought of everything. The property and house were exactly as advertised. Their place is a perfect retreat for a Catskills getaway. We’ll be booking in the future for sure. Highly recommend!

We were extremely pleased with our stay at Roberta’s place. This was our first visit to Saratoga Springs, and we wanted a quiet place that was convenient to downtown and that would allow us to fully experience the community. We felt at home from the moment we walked into the place. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and the apartment was very comfortable. The unit was exactly as described and came with coffee for the coffee maker and even a package of scones for us to enjoy. It was a short walk to the restaurants and shops of downtown, and we felt safe walking at all times. Overall, we highly recommend Roberta’s place. We will definitely stay again the next time that our travels take us to Saratoga Springs.

We truly had a fantastic stay at Donna's quaint guesthouse in Ghent! The lovely cabin and many available amenities had everything we could have asked for, and more! Donna was extremely welcoming, kind, and communicative, providing us with clear information for the check-in/out process and going the extra mile to offer local recommendations to make us (including our pup) feel at home during our time away. We would certainly go back in a heartbeat!

Nancy’s place was a great option for my stay in the area. The kitchen had everything I needed, and the couch was comfortable. As was the one bed I slept in. I was visiting for a work trip. Nancy was also incredibly responsive to any questions I had, and was offering suggestions for the area I found useful. I’m glad to have found this place. While on this trip, I did not bring my dogs, I will be sure to stay here on my next one to the area. I typically stay in hotels here, but I will do my best to stay at Nancy’s anytime visiting in the future.

Simply beautiful, charming and cozy stay. The waterfall was amazing, it was frozen but I think that made it even more beautiful, its a short hike to the fall and in my 2-day stay I went about 5 times. Even cold plunged in the fall! The wood stove is so toasty and they have an abundance of wood to last all winter. The kitches has literally everything you can think of and you can tell a food lover lives here. There's even binders with tons of recipes that seems to be made throughout decades, super cool. Overall great stay and just what we needed. Highly recommend!

AMAZING HOME!! Concept design home, very well furnished. We loved all the personal elements it had! The location is great and the hike down to the water was perfect. Highly recommend booking this escape!

I booked Devra's place on behalf of my parents. Devra was so accommodating to them! They thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Devra's place is within walking distance of many shops and restaurants.

We had an amazing stay at Kristen’s condo with our family—my husband, our toddler, and our dog. The location was perfect—secluded and peaceful, but still close to hiking trails and charming small towns. The condo was cozy, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. Kristen was responsive and helpful, making our stay even better. Highly recommend for a family getaway!

We had a great stay at Michelle’s place. It was very conveniently located to the base of Jiminy Peak, which made getting to and from the mountain very easy. The house was very well appointed and had everything we needed. We used the fireplace twice and it was super easy. Having access to the facilities at The Country Inn at Jiminy Peak was great as I am injured and can’t ski currently, so instead I went to the gym each day. My family didn’t want to leave and my kids are asking when we can go back!

Perfect for our family of 6 adults and 2 kids. Andrew & Tracy were fantastic hosts and the home was nice and spacious. A quick drive brought us to downtown Saratoga and the racetracks! We hope to stay again soon.

Beautiful relaxing cabin in the Catskills, we loved our stay!!

Amazing resort! Super tranquil/beautiful. Hosts are the most responsive I've ever experienced. I got responses at all times - day/night! Cabin was clean/organized - comes with a fire-pit and grill. What more can u ask for! There is an A/C, oven/stove, microwave. Super thoughtful trouble-free cabin. I stayed at the Vista. Enjoyed walking to the waterfall. It's magical. Enjoyed the goats/sheep, geese/ducks, chickens, cats and creek. Cats are super cute/friendly! Didn't get a chance to tube unfortunately. Should have stayed another night. Cabins are closer to each other than I thought. I could hardly hear the neighbors though. Also I understand for safety the pool can only if 2 adults are present. I'm a grown adult solo traveler but respected the rules. Better safe than sorry! All in all, a wonderful experience. This resort is now top of my list. Only 2 hour drive from NYC area and a piece of paradise!

IT was nice to stay at Olia’s place.. it was same as listed just our kids disappointed because swimming pool was not on .. and weather was not for swim as well.. but other things are very good and we all are enjoyed lot .. there are many games as well for play in house .. nice time at Olia’s place and one more thing about check out she give more time than enough time .. thanks Olia’s ..

A group of nine old college friends met at this lovely location for a weekend reunion. The house is exactly how it is described and incredibly clean and charming. The hosts were very communicative and incredibly accommodating. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed to cook and feel right at home. The dining room is a beautiful space to gather and the whole house is comfortable, clean and inviting. We love that everyone had their own room and the bathrooms were incredibly clean with lots of extra products on hand. The bedrooms were streamlined without a lot of clutter and very comfortable beds. Everyone in our group remarked that they had a great night sleep. The house has a very interesting history and although it is an older home the owners did a fabulous job with updates and still kept all the original charm and character. Although the weather didn't fully cooperate, we were able to take a beautiful hike close by. We hope to get the chance to stay again next year
