History:
The Saratoga County Homestead opened on December 5, 1914, to treat patients with tuberculosis. In the beginning, the homestead could accommodate and treat twenty-four patients. As the cases of tuberculosis in New York State increased, the homestead would undergo a massive expansion in 1936. Its wooden structure being replaced by brick, embellished with decorative moldings, marble columns, and large windows and solariums to circulate the fresh mountain air that was thought essential to the treatment process. The last patients left in August of 1960 and it became the county infirmary in January of 1961. It would treat geriatric patients until 1973 when it closed for good.
Nearly 50 years after its closing the homestead is now under new ownership. Small renovations have started so that tours are allowed on the property, with the end goal of building veterans retreat on the 28.61 acres of land. The new owner allows photography tours and ghost tours of the property, please contact the Haunted Nights Events Facebook page for more information on these tours. The homestead will also be featured in Destination Fear on Travel Channel, the episode will air on October 24th, 2020.
