Amenities: The stone- and pine-sided main inn houses the destination-worthy dining room and connects via an enclosed breezeway to the natatorium, with its hot tub, indoor swimming pool, fitness center and Aveda spa. For a more private hideaway, choose a one- to three-
bedroom suite in one of the property’s cottages or cabins.
Don’t miss: The two-hour head-to-toe couple’s spa package ($135/person), Friday night’s seafood buffet, Saturday night’s grand buffet, Sunday morning’s champagne brunch or Wednesday night’s tapas bar with live entertainment in the lounge.
