Saratoga, elevation 6,792 feet, is nestled among cattle ranches in the Upper North Platte River Valley, east of the Continental Divide. Flanked by the Sierra Madre and Snowy Range Mountains, Saratoga sits on the banks of the North Platte River. Prehistoric volcanic activity left the town with a beautiful mineral hot springs pool, free and open 24 hours a day, year round.

Abundant wildlife live in the area. The North Platte is a Blue Ribbon trout river alive with activity in the summer and fall. Big game hunting begins in September, including antelope, deer, elk, moose, and black bear. Blue grouse, sage grouse, dove, duck and goose hunting also begins in the fall.

Harrison Guest House and Guide Service, located on the premises, can provide professional guided fishing trips.

Whitewater and scenic rafting are popular sports throughout the spring and summer. Or visit the annual Festival of the Arts during the town's 4th of July celebrations.
