Family-friendly holiday rentals in Capital District, New York

LJ was a fantastic host and the place was great!

We had a lovely long weekend with our 20 year old daughters and our dog. We celebrated a birthday and midsummer and really relaxed. The house was comfortable, clean and offered an relaxing environment. The Sauna, hot tub and She Shed were fan favorites with our family! Highly recommend for a family of 4-6.

We went for a quick weekend getaway with our two dogs and absolutely loved William and Liz’s home, we didn’t want to leave!! I loved the privacy, how peaceful it was, and of course the views! Our dogs enjoyed all the free space to run as well. We unfortunately had a lot of rain when we stayed, causing our tour of howes cavern to be canceled due to flash flooding. We were rescheduled which affected our check out time, but they were so sweet and offered us to check out whenever we liked and even offered us an extra night to stay! (We wish we could have). It was a wonderful weekend getaway and we all can’t wait to go back! :)

We truly enjoyed our stay at Wilderkill Barn. Maria Cristina and William were exceptional hosts—warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our visit special. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The home was a haven, with a hot tub, sauna, pool, fire pit, pool table, and immersive sound and movie systems—all of which made our stay delightful despite the cold, dreary May weather. We can't thank them enough. ***That said, we feel it's necessary to address a serious issue with Airbnb itself that arose while booking this property, unrelated to the property itself. An unexpected tax was added after booking, and Airbnb has yet to provide a clear explanation. After years of loyalty, we were disappointed by their evasive and unhelpful customer support. This experience has made us reconsider using the platform in the future. We urge potential users to scrutinize all fees carefully and be aware that Airbnb’s support may be difficult to navigate if problems arise.***

Great host and great soaking tub! Beautiful surroundings to chill out and relax in.

Jonathan’s place was fantastic! Location felt like a secluded oasis, but was only 5 mins to town. Everything was clean, hot tub and sauna included. Our pups greatly appreciated running around in the fenced in yard. Jonathan was quick to respond the one time we messaged. Would absolutely stay there again!

We loved staying at Bill's beautiful home! Truly even more gorgeous in person. Bill was friendly and communicative. He asks renters to sign an additional contract, but all his requests were reasonable/standard airbnb rules. The house is comfortable and spacious and the surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. It's a speedy drive (3 min) to the main street of Woodstock -- restaurants and shopping galore. We cannot wait to come back and stay again!

I stayed for a long weekend with my boyfriend & dog and Mary's place was perfect! The house is very spacious and comfortable and well-stocked. The deck has an amazing view and we loved going in the hot tub after hiking. I would 100% recommend this place and hope that I am able to come back in the future!

We absolutely loved Maple Hill Farms. It's a wonderful place and a perfect choice for a trip to the Berkshires if you're an animal lover. The best part of our weekend was bonding with Philip's sweet and friendly donkeys! The studio is well laid out with everything you need, the farm is beautiful and peaceful (except for the roosters, haha!), and the location is great for visiting local sights like Mass MoCA and The Mount. We hope to be back!

A really awesome place, ideal for relaxing and get energized without external distractions ! Limited network depending on your carrier, which was exactly what we were looking for! A bit chilly in mid October - as advertised - but Pam made everything to make sure we were comfortable ! I am pretty sure I will come back! Lots to do in terms of hiking, and activities in the cities nearby

This was so charming & cozy, while also being conveniently close to nature nails & downtown Woodstock. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay & would recommend!

Cozy home, on a beautiful property. The natural pool is really special, and we loved staying here. Hope to be back.

Perfect location for everything to do around Saratoga Springs, and very peaceful....we would stay forever if we could!

Staying at Will and Aenne's barn house was fun and wholesome. I enjoyed saying hello to the animals and the jungle shower most of all. The barn has everything one needs. Though, I must say I was very intimidated by having to light the chef's stove. We walked from the barn to the waterfall down town which was beautiful--great place to hang out and swim in the warmer months. The village of Kinderhook is adorable with quaint little shops. Hudson city had some of the best food I've had in a long time; I strongly recommend eating at Cafe Mutton. Overall, Will and Aenne were very hands-off hosts--as in, they gave us our space and privacy--while still being responsive and attentive. Thank you for the stay! I hope to come back again!

Robert and Sandra were so helpful in making sure we were able to get the experience we were hoping for. The cabin is beautiful and we enjoyed looking through the photos of its construction. It was clean, comfortable, and very private.

By far the best Airbnb experience I've ever had! Joni was an amazing host, and I also had the pleasure of meeting her husband Rob/seeing their unique, beautiful home. She was responsive and very helpful throughout my stay, and even taught this "non tech savvy" person how to operate the TV! The location is perfect- and in my case even more so, as I attended a family wedding at the Colony just a block away! Its a 5 minute walk to town, and at the same time very peaceful/private- a perfect combination. I fell in love with Woodstock and wish I could have stayed longer. I'll definitely be back, as there is much more to explore in the area- will definitely stay at Logstock when I return!

Cute house, open concept first floor was great for a weekend with our girlfriends! Hava was very responsive and kind!

We had a magical weekend away and our stay was everything we hoped it would be, and more. Olia was incredibly responsive, friendly, and all around wonderful to connect with. The house was a magical time capsule holding the best of energy and a glimpse into the 70s - so fun. The pool and patio were awesome, with open and friendly spaces inside too, all made for the best of entertaining spaces. We could not have asked for a better weekend away, and we cannot wait to plan our next trip! Thank you!

We had a wonderful & relaxing weekend here with a large group for my sister's lowkey bachelorette party. Even with a day of non-stop pouring rain, we were perfectly content with staying in and enjoying the coziness of the house. We had a blast watching the chickens roam around and hanging out with the overly-friendly barn cats while we sat outside. The goats & pigs were happy to greet us at the fence every time. The hot tub and pool were perfect! Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a beautifully scenic and peaceful getaway. Thanks, Sarah & BBVF team!

This is our fifth year coming to the farm. Larissa is absolutely masterful with kids of all ages (even tough kids). My daughter races out at 9 am to do farm chores and begs for more (and this is a kid who drags her feet doing chores at home)!! We love the rhythm of farm and find it really easy to disconnect and unwind. After chores in the morning, you're welcome to spend as much time as you want with the animals, which is a real treat. Whether it's feeding the horses hay, sharing food scraps with the goats, or watching the chickens do their evening routine, there's so much to enjoy. The local towns are lovely, but if you like the farm experience, you may never leave the property. Larissa is incredibly knowledgeable and generous in sharing her experience and expertise. She has created an absolutely magical environment, and I would highly recommend visiting!!

Billy and Rhobin were so helpful and easy to communicate with. The house was so comfortable and peaceful. The property was lovely! 5 Stars all around! Thank you for a fantastic stay!

Beautiful country home, SUPERB location, large grounds with a beautiful pool, and communicative and kind host. We had a wonderful stay.

We had an amazing stay at the cottage! It's modern and thoughtfully designed, but still feels cozy and inviting. It’s tucked away in a peaceful spot surrounded by trees, yet only a 3-minute drive from town. You feel totally removed and relaxed, but everything you need is right nearby. I worked remotely for part of the trip, and the setup was perfect. There’s a dedicated desk with a view of the mountains, and the Wi-Fi was fast and reliable. Natural light poured into the cottage through the skylights. It was spotless and comfortable. The bed and linens were top notch, water pressure was great and hot—little details that make a difference. The pool was a highlight. It’s heated, with plenty of loungers and umbrellas, and it felt totally private and calm. We ended up spending an entire day out there just soaking it in. The hosts were lovely. They were helpful when we needed them, but also gave us complete privacy. We’d absolutely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone!

My family stayed here for a weekend trip to Windham. The location to the ski area was very close, only 6 minutes away. There were plenty of nearby restaurants, markets, and coffee. The house is clean and cozy and perfect for a family of 4 or 5.
