It’s beginning to look a lot like chaos.

What if our favorite holiday songs had more truthful lyrics – dashing through the stores, on a harried, hectic day, three more parties we must go, hyperventilating all the way? During this overwhelming and overscheduled time of year, the most important thing we can schedule is time for ourselves.

Without breaks for rest, relaxation and reflection, the season tends to lose all meaning while we completely lose our sanity. We suggest trading the busy sidewalks for quiet pathways – whether that be a peaceful trek down a pine-scented trail, or a much-needed stroll to our Ranch Creek Spa with its rejuvenating menu of aromatherapy-infused treatments.

Allow us to soak away the stress of holiday crowds, scrub away the strain of too many commitments, and massage away the anxiety of unruly relatives. We invite you to shed unnecessary obligations and wrap up in a fluffy robe to enjoy the warmth of a crackling fire, the peaceful views of the Continental Divide, and the healing powers of lavender, cypress and rosemary.

Nestled in a quiet corner of the meadow surrounded by nothing but nature, the Ranch Creek Spa feels a thousand miles away from the masses and the must-dos. It’s the perfect place to temporarily disconnect from all of the season’s demands so you can better connect with family, friends and the true meaning of the holidays.
