Post hike, guests unwind with a late afternoon yoga class and/or a massage if desired. During busy times, a water aerobics course is offered. But the fun fun doesn't stop there, after dinner we have cooking demonstrations while discussing nutritional facts and myths. We also have personal trainers, Registered Dietitians, tennis professionals, canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding, rock climbing, caving, fly fishing, cycling and mountain biking available for sessions à la carte.

Our mission is to make your experience at our spa an event which leaves you feeling healthier, both physically and mentally, while at the same time immersing them in a real Vermont outdoor vacation.
