Try this method. This will give you string return for the entire html content. Write this string in whatever file you want

public string GetHtmlPageContent(string url)
    {
        HttpWebResponse siteResponse = null;
        HttpWebRequest siteRequest = null;
        string content= string.Empty;

        try
        {
            Uri uri = new Uri(url);
            siteRequest = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(url);
            siteResponse = (HttpWebResponse)siteRequest.GetResponse();

            content = GetResponseText(siteResponse);
        }
        catch (WebException we)
        {
            // Log error
        }
        catch (Exception e2)
        {
            // Log error
        }

        return content;
    }

        public string GetResponseText(HttpWebResponse response)
    {
        string responseText = string.Empty;

        if (response == null)
            return string.Empty;

        try
        {
            StreamReader responseReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
            responseText = responseReader.ReadToEnd();
            responseReader.Close();
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            // Log error
        }

        return responseText;
    }

Hope this will help you.
