The video in the museum is really dated, and therefore very funny. Enjoy that. Overall it's a place steeped in history and worth a visit purely on that basis.

Was here many years ago, and decided to return. The visitor center was good, short movie and some artifacts on display. The battlefield drive is pretty much a let down, at least for now. Not much to see, almost no placards or monuments. I guess I thought it was going to be more like Gettysburg. Still glad I did it though.. being a history buff. Many stops along the way are closed, which I assume is for updating and building up area for the 250th anniversary of probably the MOST important battle of the American Revolution... ok. Not probably.. THE MOST IMPORTANT. Because of its importance, I guess I expected more... The battlefield run would be an awesome bike run, if you so incline.

"Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time." The Battles of Saratoga sites are Hallowed Grounds: * About 800 American Patriots were killed in the battles * British side lost about 1500 men.* Thanks to our National Park Service for helping us in honoring & remembering the sacrifices of those who laid down their lives in 1777 to give us freedom today.
