First off, the place is absolutely adorable with many nice touches, including real art on the walls and the history of the town and house. The furniture is beautiful and comfortable and each room has an a/c unit to ensure you sleep well. The yard is well maintained and the porch is idyllic. We went for many walks in Salem art works and enjoyed the scenery and pace of life in a small town. Our dog settled quickly and enjoyed the backyard. Highly recommendand we will be back ourselves!

Comfortable Stay

We stayed in Salem for a long weekend while visiting SPAC in Saratoga Springs. We loved the area as well as the apartment. The place was very comfortable and the backyard was a lovely retreat for us and our dog. Would definitely stay again when we are in the area.

We had a lovely time at the nicely furnished Yellow Door Inn. It was clean and very well stocked. There was plenty of room to stretch out. All of the art throughout the apartment was a nice added touch. Thank you Klara & Greg!

We enjoyed another great stay at the Yellow Door Inn. The home and gardens are lovely and Klara and Greg provide a welcoming presence. We visited many of our favorite places in both NY and Vermont and enjoyed some of the restaurant suggestions made by our hosts. We will be back!

Lovely and comfortable home in Salem NY

My son and I had the privileged of staying in this beautiful home. There were many lovely details, interesting art, beautifully appointed kitchen, nice amenities in the bathroom etc. A very comfortable cozy place. While there I believe the biggest snow storm of the season happened, owners were wonderful about shoveling us out.

Best choice for Salem

The apartment is roomy, clean and comfortable, Vrbo hosts are very accommodating. We considered many options and knew that we made the right decision as soon as we walked in. We invited local family over; it rained but the kitchen, living room and dining room were perfect for the evening. Will recommend to family and friends in the future.

very clean place to stay, well organized first floor apartment, the owners live on the second floor, we didn't feel them (in a good way). In the kitchen you have everything you need to cook, so better bring your own groceries.

Delightful

This is our second and longest stay at Yellow Door. Klara and Greg are excellent hosts. The accommodations are clean and comfortable, and there is plenty to do! There is even a bean bag chair which my Grandsons loved. There are some nice added touches such as local fresh eggs, and coffee so you won't have to worry about breakfast your first morning there. Two thumbs up!

My two-week stay here was nothing short of magical. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by how warm, inviting, and beautifully decorated the space is—it truly felt like a home rather than a rental. Greg and Klara have truly thought of everything to make a long-term stay effortless. I was so impressed by the abundance of high-quality linens, plenty of fresh towels, extra cozy blankets for lounging, and a kitchen stocked with everything I needed.One of my favorite touches was the helpful and stylish information board in the dining room; it made navigating the home and the local area so simple.The location is a dream for nature and art lovers. It was such a luxury to step out the back door and meander through the SAW and Cary Hill Sculpture Park properties, or take a quick stroll into the quaint center of Salem. Greg and Klara were the perfect hosts—they gave me total privacy but were incredibly prompt whenever I had a question. Check-in and check-out were seamless. I can’t recommend this place enough and I can't wait to go back in the warmer months.

Everything was wonderful. It was pet friendly. We had many of everyday essentials in the property. Wi-Fi allowed me to stream with casting my movies and news. We had a fun time driving around. It is very scenic. We went to a bakery, the art exhibit, and two farmers/homemade goods places. Delicious Strawberry preserves at the farmer's market Saturday. It packed a punch. Very comfortable queen size bed. Newer model washer/dryer are in the apt. Hosts were very helpful and gracious.

Absolutely lovely place

We stayed in this lovely Victorian house, ground floor apartment. It was so wonderfully comfortable. Klara and Greg provided everything you could possibly need. And they are just the nicest, sweetest people ever. The apartment is in the historic area of Salem. The history of the town was fascinating. The artwork around town was interesting to see. We also took a short walk/hike nearby through the snow. Keep in mind there are no restaurants or grocery stores nearby. We liked the Burger Den (diner food) that was about 12 minutes away. There’s a Hannaford grocery store about 20 minutes away so we cooked at the apartment. We just loved the peaceful nature of the area. Great place to stay and decompress.
