Saratoga County, New York
Saratoga County is in eastern New York, just north of Albany. This place is a mix of history and horses. The Saratoga Race Course is a big deal here. It’s the oldest sports venue in the US.
But there’s more than just racing. The county’s got some killer mineral springs in the Saratoga Springs area. People used to think the water could cure anything. Now? It’s just nice for a soak.
Saratoga Lake is perfect for a summer day out. Fishing, boating, you name it. The area’s got a cool Revolutionary War past too. And the fall colors are insane. This county is a year-round kind of place.
