Hobo Pool
Saratoga is famous for its hot springs, but that's mainly due to the Saratoga Resort & Spa — at which you have to stay to experience them. Unless, of course, you head to the Hobo Pool. This modestly named natural hot springs was once believed to possess healing powers, and still possesses the ability to amaze as you sit comfortably in water that averages between 106 and 119 degrees Fahrenheit — or perhaps uncomfortably, if you find yourself in the warmer area of the pool known as the Lobster Pot — at the snow falling around you in winter months. For younger visitors or the heat-adverse, there's also a not-so-hot-pool, as well as recently renovated changing house and a few picnic tables out back, just in case you arrive in weather warm enough to use them.
