Saratoga County - State Parks
The presence of natural mineral springs led to the rise of this elegant spa resort in the 19th-century. The 2,100 acre Spa State Park encompasses bubbling springs, manicured lawns, woods, Georgian architecture, pavilions, pools, mineral bathhouses, golf courses, a hotel and a 5,100 seat semi-enclosed performing arts center. Just minutes away from the downtown business district is the Saratoga Battle Field, 'the turning point' of the American Revolution which is home to the 154.5 foot Saratoga Monument.
