Default I'm in the wrong business

Location is everything, I guess. $252 A NIGHT for The Saratoga Community Court Motel opening weekend of Saratoga this year. Kiss my ass. I'd rather sleep in my car.

Yes...

Sam The Bugler stops by Community Court frequently during the summer racing meet

You gotta pony up for that kind of atmosphere.

There's a state park 10 mi outside Saratoga that has camping, swimming, showers, etc. Moreau Lake I believe.
http://nysparks.state.ny.us/parks/150/maps.aspx
They have 2 cottages . The campground cottage is available the end of Aug. Lots of camping spots open for the season.
