Autumn Foliage to Holiday Feasts
Right now, fall leaves are covering the ground like colorful sprinkles on a Vermont maple creemee! We’re soaking in the autumn season because we know soon those sprinkles will be blanketed with snow. Fall in Woodstock, Vermont is packed with apple cider and fresh donuts, hikes with panoramic views of the speckled hills, and wagon rides across farm fields where pumpkins grow. Once we’ve soaked up the last of the apple cider and the final leaves have fallen, we’ll be full force into winter! So, let’s look ahead and plan for our favorite things about the snowy season.
Soothe at The Spa
Cold weather can wreak havoc on your skin, luckily our Spa knows how to keep you feeling your best. From treatments to all-natural products, our team of spa professionals will help address any dryness or irritation the winter brings. Here's what our Spa recommends to stay well this winter:
Cold Weather Spa Treatments
- Skier's Choice: Enhance any body treatment with a stimulating lower leg and foot massage using Mighty Mint Rescue Cream.
- Get warmed and wrapped up in our Citrus Espresso Detox multi-layer body treatment that enlivens and hydrates your entire body.
Winter Wellness Products
