A plan of the Spa State Park includes a street plan of Saratoga Springs that identifies the baths, Congerss Park, Greenridge Cemetery, Lougberry Lake, Geyser Lake and the principal routes into and out of the city ( Routes (9K, 50, 29, and 9). Concentric circles show what is at a 1 and 2 mile radius from the city center (Congress Park).

The reverse shows hotels and boarding houses at Saratoga Spa, indicating which serve travelers. Categories include Hotels (9), "Cure" Diet Available (11), Boarding Houses (3), Hotels Observing Dietary Laws (11, i.e. Jewish dietary laws), Rooming Houses (44). Name, address, cost of weekly room/board rates (American/European plan), number of rooms, and season are included for each category.
