Good stay
House seemed to still be in renovation. The house was suitable for my family and majority of the house was updated. It was a nice location outside of the main part of Ballston spa but within walking distance. Overall a great stay and highly recommend it.

Gretchen P.

Disliked: Cleanliness
A work in progress
Our first impression – the unit was not as advertised and still under construction. The kitchen was not finished, cupboards half painted and curtains covering dishes and paint supplies. The front door was the only way to access the house as the back door was blocked. The 3rd bedroom floor carpet was dirty, stained and under the beds filthy. We could write in the dust on the bedroom shelves. Construction dust was evident in the living room. There were 6 people staying at the house but only 3 bar stool chairs and 2 kitchen chairs at a small table. Construction tools under kitchen sink and in kitchen drawers. The grounds outside were unkept with pallets piled in the back yard. Many other issues on this rental existed that made it unsuitable for our group. The work that had been completed was nice to include the main floor bathroom, kitchen center island and kitchen flooring, however unless this host has completed the construction of the house and grounds it should not be rented. We could only stand staying one night and had to leave. We contacted VRBO support within 24 hours from the time we checked in but have received no compensation other than our booking fee refund for the 6 nights reservation. Apparently VRBO does not inspect their listings or stand behind them. We are hoping VRBO can resolve these complaints to our satisfaction.
