Prior to being claimed and settled by Great Britain as part of its Province of New York , Sharon Springs was frequented by the indigenous Iroquois population for its healing waters. Sharon Springs, then known as the town of New Dorlach , was settled around Stretching from the Adirondack Mountains to the Delaware River , Tryon County boasted a pre-Revolutionary War farming community of 10, and was known as the "Breadbasket of the Colonies".

The Battle of Sharon was fought on July 10, After burning down 12 homes in a small Canajoharie River settlement and claiming victory in the Battle of Currytown on July 9, approximately British and Iroquois troops commanded by John Doxtader encamped later that day at the Sharon Springs Swamp, near the present-day intersection of Route 20 and County Road Colonel Marinus Willett of the American forces headed to their camp with a force of men, attacking the redcoats in the dense swamp, killing The Town of Sharon was formed shortly after in , and Sharon Springs set itself apart from the Town of Sharon in by incorporating as a village.

In the process, it absorbed the neighboring community of Rockville. Sharon Springs has four different mineral waters that people were drawn to because of their different healing qualities. The village has sulfur, magnesia, chalybeate and 'Blue Stone' springs. At the peak of its popularity, Sharon Springs hosted 10, visitors each summer, including members of the Vanderbilt family and Oscar Wilde who gave a lecture at the now-demolished Pavilion Hotel on 11 August The most famous of the springs in the Village, then as now, was the so-called Gardner Spring, which was owned by the owner of the Pavilion Hotel.

As reported in the New York Times on 30 August , "So prodigious is the amount of sulfur-gas in the Gardner Spring that the waters of this creek are rendered as white as milk, and the stones are covered with a thick deposit. All the objects which have been thrown into the stream from above—old shoes, tin pails, and other things of a similar nature—become transmuted by the mineral. Some of them become a snowy white, and others are turned to a deep black. The green weeds that grow upon the sides and bottoms of such creeks are here perfectly white, and at first one can hardly tell their nature, but mistakes them for long films of the sulphur deposit.

Wealthy Jewish families of German origin, who were unwelcome at Saratoga due to the prevailing social bias of the time, filled the void and "made Sharon Springs a refuge of their own. Other factors that exacerbated the village's early 20th century decline were Prohibition which reduced the need for the local hop harvest and the opening of the New York State Thruway which routed traffic away from the area.

Sharon Springs was also associated with several beer barons in the late 19th and early 20th century. Thus this area attracted brewers who summered in the area, two of which, Henry Clausen and Max Shaefer, built homes in the Village. The New York hops trade disappeared after the first world war, due to the combined effects of competition from Oregon, a hops blight, and the coming of prohibition.

Koch , the future mayor of New York City. The s through the s saw the succession of secular Jewish tourists to Sharon Springs by Hasidim and ultra-Orthodox Jewish visitors, fed in part by a parallel displacement in the nearby Borsht Belt.

A host of Hasidim-owned and frequented hotels flourished in the village, bridging Sharon Springs' shining past as a world-class resort for the rich and famous and its recent ascent as a regional travel and weekend destination. A concurrent migration of weekend hunters and union trade workers discovering rural weekending from the Downstate New York City suburbs began coming to Sharon Springs and Schoharie County in the s.

As suburban and urban hunters chased the deer, they also introduced the once-endangered wild turkey to this and other rural areas. Unlike the Hasidim tourists, who have mostly moved on to other destinations and have dwindled in numbers, the first wave of suburban weekenders have added to the community by building their families and relocating their full-time lives to their former part-time escape.

Sharon Springs, after drifting into a rundown state by the late s, has enjoyed a resurgence in the last 15 years. Much of this has been attributed to both a stabilization of the remaining historic structures arson leveled many of the abandoned hotels and an infusion of ambitious buyers from outside the area looking for an affordable community to start a business or to add rural weekends to their city life.
