Forest setting at Saratoga Oaks Lodge, Saratoga, California

"Saratoga Oaks Lodge"
Saratoga Oaks Lodge Toyon Suite

Situated on the main street of Saratoga village, Saratoga Oaks Lodge is a charming property tucked back in the quiet side of town.

With 25 rooms to choose from, I’d recommend one of the 11 suites on property. The four bungalow suites are individual cottages.

If this is a romantic getaway, reserve the Toyon Suite. As the name of the lodge implies, the grounds feature gorgeous, well-maintained ancient oak trees and a waterfall toward the back of the lodge that makes you feel miles away from town and nearby Silicon Valley, California.

All rooms feature complimentary internet access, complimentary Direct TV & HBO (not available on my visit) complimentary computer access in the lobby and a continental breakfast from 7: 00 – 11:00 a.m.

Check the website for pricing. Seniors 65 and up receive a 10% discount.

Check in: 2 p.m.

Check out: 11 a.m.

The Toyon suite is a private cottage that includes granite counter tops, microwave oven, a gas-log fireplace, large brick patio and separate king bed.

Ladies and gentlemen will want to spend time in the bathroom with its jetted bath tub, steam sauna and Toto toilet. This is no ordinary bathroom toilet. The Toto Washlet is a bidet with heated toilet seat and plenty of bells and whistles – or should I say streams of water?

Whether staying in Saratoga, California for business or pleasure, if you can afford it, splurge on dinner – or at least cocktails – at the Plumed Horse. This Michelin-starred restaurant is within walking distance of Saratoga Oaks Lodge.

Housed in a former stable, the Plumed Horse is a food-lovers delight. Order the ahi tuna tartar with Quail egg and caviar or the black pepper and Parmesan cheese souffle with uni and Dungeness crab.
