The Saratoga Sleigh Bed and Breakfast Website


The Saratoga Sleigh Bed and Breakfast 
~The following taken from the website~

Renowned architect R. Newton Brezee built this large Queen Anne Victorian home in 1888, overlooking the historic Saratoga Race Course grounds. We have restored it and filled it with authentic Victorian antique furnishings, as well as all modern amenities ~ and lots of hospitality! Take a step back to the grand and glorious days of the Victorian Era. Each room of The Saratoga Sleigh Bed and Breakfast offers guests a memorable stay.

The Saratoga Sleigh has four large antique-filled bedrooms, each with a private bath. Every room is unique and alive with its own charm. All rooms feature air conditioning, fireplaces, balcony or private screened and glassed in porch. Our rooms are as special and as varied as our guests.
Guests are encouraged to stroll through the many common area rooms and enjoy all the beauty and splendor of a Victorian home. The Saratoga Sleigh Bed & Breakfast is conveniently located one mile off exit 14 of the Northway (I-87). 30 minutes south of Lake George and 20 minutes north of Albany. The Sleigh is close to all that the North Country and Adirondacks have to offer. The Saratoga Sleigh is directly across the street from the world famous Saratoga Springs Thoroughbred Race Course and next door to the recently expanded National Racing Museum.
