The new spa at Crystal Mountain is Fabulous! The facilities are lovely, serene and LEED certified. I loved the meditation room with healthy refreshments, fireplace and beautiful crystal chandalier. My treatment room was so inviting and cozy. The treatment offerings included Northern Michigan inspired ingredients and aromas, as well as meeting the needs of the fun resort activities tiring my body. It was really hard to choose what to treat myself to. After my hot stone pedicure and massage, I lounged in the infrared steam room and gorgeuos shower/locker area. I cant wait to go back! I have been checking the website and see that many treatments have again changed to fit the season and resort activities. I can assure anyone reading this that you will enjoy this spa and resort in every way!
