“Back in my day”

Bunk House > Odyssey > Double Vision

Double Vision hasn’t always been Double Vision. Before this name the club was Odyssey. And before that it was the Bunk House. A Cohoes couple ran it for a stretch. Two brothers from Stillwater ran it later. Around 2005, Matthew Spagnola 🤌 of Saratoga Springs took the lease and gave the place the name that stuck, for now.

Liquor records list LDS Property Holdings Inc., with Louis Spagnola 🤌 as operator. A family business, in the ordinary sense of the phrase. Later filings have carried Double Vision at 1917 Route 9 as well as 1915. A food-and-beverage license on those records ran through June 30, 2026. Halfmoon Town Board minutes also show a liquor-license notice for the club here in 2016.

Halfmoon and Clifton Park both tightened the rules on adult entertainment. Double Vision remained because of a grandfathered exception on a road that otherwise filled in with mostly local businesses.

An earlier sign called it a gentlemen’s cabaret. The 1915 on the brick is the street number. The building itself dates to 1965.

Trouble in paradise

Valentine’s Day, 2013

On February 14, 2013, Double Vision filed for Chapter 11 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Albany. The club kept the doors open while it tried to reorganize.

Filings reported about $685,000 in revenue in 2010 and nearly $780,000 in 2011. New York’s tax and labor departments were seeking more than $124,000. Those claims were disputed.

There was a separate fight with outside money. Two men sued in Saratoga County Supreme Court in 2009, saying they had put hundreds of thousands of dollars into the club and never received the ownership stake they thought they had been promised. Reporting on the case described a combined $374,000 sent between 2006 and 2008. Michael D’Addio, of the Miami area, was later repaid. Anthony Stracci of Rockland County showed up in the bankruptcy as the largest creditor, with about $240,000 in disputed claims.

The club

What’s on the inside

From the highway it’s a modest commercial building with an infamous sign. Inside you’ll find a main room, a wraparound bar, mirrors, private booths, and a two-pole stage.

Yes, Clifton Park Spark would totally buy it, turn it into a new Upstate Music Hall, and call it “After Dark”. We just need the money, so….

Hours run from around 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. on weeknights, later from Thursday through Saturday, with a later Sunday start. Cover is typically $10 on weeknights and around $15 on weekends. There’s an amateur night 😮, VIP rooms, couch dances, bottle service, and of course an on-site ATM.

The Google reviews are fun to read and if you have the time we recommend sitting down with a nice warm tea and reading some of them out loud! Yelp review scores hover around 2.8 to 3.0 and include mentions of specific dancers, and complaints about empty nights and the bartender’s attitude.

Last call

So, what’s next?

Double Vision is still open and running. A buyer could keep the name, retire it, rework the night, or even try a different use for a very visible piece of Route 9.

Whether $2.795 million is a bargain, or a number that still has room to move, is up to the buyer. It’s been the Bunk House, Odyssey, and Double Vision. It has outlasted bankruptcy, an investor lawsuit, and more.
