New State-of-the-Art Day Spa at Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa More Than Doubles in Size, Provides Enhanced Services for Individuals, Couples, Groups and Bridal Parties
The management team at Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa is thrilled to announce the much-anticipated opening of the new on-property, Stonedrift Spa. A destination for signature spa treatments and therapies for nearly twenty years, the beloved spa has been reimagined and moved to a completely remodeled standalone building on the Eagle Ridge property in The Galena Territory. The move increases the size of the spa from 3,500 to more than 12,000 square feet and is under the management of experienced and impassioned spa professional Abbi Porter.
"Throughout the years the spa has built a base of loyal clientele and we had come to the point where demand for our services outgrew our existing location," said Abbi Porter, spa manager at Stonedrift Spa. "The move and upgrading of the Stonedrift Spa are part of our multi-year plan to transform the resort into a true 21st century destination that is both luxurious and incredibly accommodating."
Stonedrift Spa is now located in the former location of Eagle Ridge's General Store at 425 Eagle Ridge Drive, which is now housed within the clubhouse complex, next to The General Golf Course. The new spa location is completely remodeled with a 6,000-square foot addition to accommodate the new relaxation spaces, wellness services and treatment rooms.
The spa has an entirely new look and aesthetic with high ceilings, tranquil environment, and a mix of state-of-the-art and earthy furnishings made from raw wood and natural stone. Stonedrift Spa has doubled the number of services it features, including:
- A new hair salon, including cut, color, blowout style, and other services
- All-natural nail-care (manicures and pedicures)
- Dedicated loft space for groups, bridal parties on their special day, and more
