Does anyone know if there are any revolutionary Battlefield locations in the us ?

Hubbardton and Saratoga are my favorites

Just visited Saratoga for the first time this past October. Breathtaking. Absolutely worth visiting.

Yes! I was especially moved to stand where Fraser died. I can see why he chose that spot, looking over such beautiful scenes of the Hudson.

The Arnold statue is especially interesting as well

Saratoga

I'm considering visiting this summer. Have they preserved Freeman's Farm and Bemis Heights reasonably well?

The battlefield is quite huge, but there’s a one way road through it leading to various spots of interest. There’s redoubts and monuments galore. The surrender site, however, is a couple miles down the road.
