Upstate New York is a sprawling, pleasant region in the state of New York that is a perfect retreat for peace seekers.

Skiing, snowmobiling, and ice skating are some of the thrilling winter activities that can be enjoyed here, while hiking and canoeing are best during the summer. While you have fun exploring the region, there are plenty of luxury hotels and all-inclusive resorts to accommodate you. Relaxing in an accommodation with a private pool, however, can make your experience more memorable and enjoyable. Check out the best vacation rentals with private pool in Upstate New York.
