Endless Summer Special at The Lodge at Woodloch
In today’s Escapes section, the New York Times just picked up on the latest travel trend in the Northeast: destination spas:
…As more travelers seem to expect spa treatments to be part of their getaway experiences, and spas within driving distance of New York City recognize that travelers in a squeezed economy want to stay closer to home, a growing number of nearby hotels and resorts are building spas, revamping existing ones and rolling out all-out marketing blitzes to draw more travelers to the luxurious land of the facial, the massage and the manicure.
One of the top picks in this category– close to NYC, superb cuisine and dreamy facilities– is The Lodge at Woodloch. Since it opened in 2006, The Lodge has received just about every travel award imaginable- from TripAdvisor’s “Top 10 Spas in the World” to Spa-Finder’s “Best for Mind-Body-Spirit,” from Travel + Leisure’s “Top 15 Destination Spas” to Conde Nast Traveler’s Hot List 2007. From now until October 31, 2008, you can save up to $300 per room, per night with the End of Summer Special. Stay for three nights or more and you’ll get a $150 credit per person, per night. This offer is available with the Complete Spa Plan – including all meals, group fitness classes, use of spa facilities and cooking classes.
