One of the most beautiful public golf courses (voted number 1 or 2 in New England every year),…read moreTaconic offers tournament quality golf to anyone. The course is beautiful, with a manageable front and long back 9 (6500 yrs) from the middle tees. The course is open and even high handicap golfers will not lose many balls; there are really only a few spots on the course that are truly out of bounds. The staff is typically very friendly, Jeremy who manages the bag room is particularly nice. The pros are all great too. The whole place is well maintained, as they do host PGA (junior/womens) events from time to time. The greens play very fast towards the end of summer, and some of them slope in ways that will really frustrate anyone. Price-wise, the place is on the upper end if you have no college affiliation (about 140 or so) but is exceptionally cheap for students (35 dollars) so definitely a place to visit if you are in the area and still in school. The course truly cannot be recommended enough, and it offers some exceptional views of both the Williams College campus and the surrounding areas.

I played Taconic again after many years. I rarely play courses this expensive. This one is worth…read moreevery penny. The course is beautiful, challenging, and superbly maintained. You could play it the rest of your life and never tire of it. The club is so extremely welcoming. They make you feel like a member. The locker room, the grill, the patio are all wonderful. The only thing better than a visit would be to be e member. It is, bar none, my favorite place to play golf.

If you run into a true Saratogian who grew up here, they will likely be able to tell you all about the features found in the park. If you're interested in staying directly in the park, the Gideon Putnam Resort and Spa is inside of the park to stay at! You can get a fantastic meal at the restaurant, enjoy the Victorian pool or even get spa treatments at the Roosevelt Baths. The golf course is also a great course at a reasonable price. The state park is also the home of a small production play theatre (directly behind SPAC). There is a famous amphitheater that you can always catch Dave Matthews at in the summer (Saratoga performing arts Center). If you're interested in natural healings, there are multiple springs (including one that tastes like normal water) that residents and visitors alike bring jugs to get fresh water at. The walking trails are wonderful and in some areas, there are mini waterfalls as well. In the winter, this park is great for cross country skiing. If you enter into the park and pay the entry fee, you can go to the Peerless pool which is gigantic! Quite a few pavilions you can also rent for reunions or large parties. One thing is for sure, there's usually somewhere for every type of person.

Anytime…read moreyou see a sign indicating people should limit themselves to two five-gallon containers of water during peak times, that's a beverage world trying. So the State Seal Spring is the marquee destination here, but for something worse-tasting but more unique the Geyser spring is within the same structure. Unfortunately the Charlie spring near the SPAC entrance wasn't flowing as of mid-December. The pine trees get five stars. I wish there were bathrooms available but that could be a seasonal thing. The park is technically reachable by bus but you might have to a wait a bit.

Made very rude remarks regarding the position of the cart being off of the cart path by a foot or two which I was u familiar with. Also was just plain rude and miserable from the moment I got to the course, instead of encouraging me to have a fun and enjoyable round of golf, she instead made sure I was aware that they were closing two hours from when I got there. The course although is very nice and seems to be well kept. Would have been a great experience if not for the terrible customer service displayed.

We stayed Sunday-Wednesday so we weren't able to eat in the restaurant as they are closed Monday and Tuesday- everyone deserves a couple of days off-which wasn't an issue. The GM Nate was fantastic, in fact everyone we interacted with we very friendly, including fellow golfers on the course as we played. We had so much fun playing the course that we didn't want to try any of the other courses. The golf course was in good shape, and challenging. The view of Lake George from the 10th was gorgeous as well as the view of the mountains towards Vermont. The only downside was we lost a good number of ball LOL. Our room was clean and quaint, just what you would expect for a country Inn, and had all the amenities we needed. Our refrigerator was stocked with bagels, muffins, english muffins, watermelon and all the fixings for the bagels and english muffins. It is definitely on our list of places we will visit again. Thank you Nate and team for making out little getaway perfect!
