About Saratoga Lake
Saratoga Lake lies a few miles east of Saratoga Springs, about 4.5 miles long and 95 feet deep, draining north through Fish Creek to the Hudson. In the 1850s its lakeside hotels rivaled the springs, and Moon's Lake House is where the Saratoga chip — the potato chip — was first served.
The lake hosts the state's high-school rowing championships and the Saratoga Rowing Association; Brown's Beach, Snake Hill and the Stillwater end make up its shore.

Why we cut this one
Saratoga Lake is one of the lakes people ask us for by name — the kind of shoreline where the house has a name and the dock has a history. This board is cut from the same depth grid the configurator uses for all 104,419 lakes, so the shape is the real one.Turn it in your hands
