About Us

On the National Historic Registry since 1998, Oakcliff once hosted four US Presidents, Grant, Arthur, Hayes and Garfield. Oakcliff, located in the breathtakingly beautiful Saratoga County, is the gateway to the Adirondacks, and likely the best business decision you'll ever make when it comes to out-of-town accommodations. Tired of the soulless hotels and cafeteria style breakfasts? We get it; we once lived it too. You'll find plenty of soul here at Oakcliff.

For starters, Estate at Oakcliff is set up on a cliff, overlooking the breathtaking, historic Erie Canal waterway. Oakcliff is said to have among "the best views on the Erie Canal" with "a spectacular view of the Mohawk River" (The Erie Canal Legacy, 2000; Historic Houses of the Hudson River Valley, 2001). Oakcliff boasts a B & B like no other in the Saratoga County region.

Take a stroll down a long, winding dockside path and enjoy a picnic at the river's edge on a lazy fall, leaf-blown afternoon. Cozy up with a book in the famous library where General Grant would converse with T. G. Younglove, first Speaker of the Assembly and guest of the home's previous owner; let the energy of the library fill your soul.
