Eganridge Inn & Spa, Fenlon Falls,
Ontario, Canada
Last summer, I attended Eganridge with some of my closest friends (a
bride and bridesmaids), and was blown away by the experience. I saw
some nice pictures online, and was impressed by the list of services offered.
We decided it looked like a great place to spend the day to relax with our
excited and nervous bride-to-be. We relaxed by a plunge pool before
each of us had a spa treatment. We were offered cold beverages and were
able to slip out to enjoy a wonderful lunch on a cute patio in Bobcaygon.
We were all impressed with the facility and the aesthetician, and would highly
recommend it to anyone. We celebrated a new phase of a friend's life
and will always have that in our memories. -- M.R., 2007

Ste. Anne's Country Inn & Spa, Grafton, Ontario,
Canada
I spent a most memorable time at Ste Anne's Country Inn & Spa this past weekend
with my sister. She suffers from lupus, and also has career stress which worsens
her health. I brought her to the spa hopeful that it would help her
unwind and also slow the progress of the disease. When I picked her up from
her new and stressful job, she was tied up in a million knots. As I watched
her throughout the weekend, I could see the stress melt away with each treatment
from the caring and skilled staff. I am so grateful for the kind, courteous
and skilled service. The accommodations, food, treatments and the atmosphere
did more for her in this one weekend than a month-long vacation could have
done. As we were driving home on Sunday, she began to cry, saying that
she had never felt more relaxed, pampered, and serene. We will be going
back and recommending it to all our friends. -- T.B.
Ste. Anne's Country Inn & Spa, Grafton, Ontario,
Canada
Ste. Anne's was my first spa getaway,
and it was everything I expected it to be. From the moment my sister-in-law
and I arrived, we both noticed the warm and inviting atmosphere, which was
likely a combination of the subtle but ever-present aromatherapy that lingers
in the air, the soothing music playing quietly in the background and the pleasant
and friendly staff that greeted us with a welcoming smile and referring to
us by our first names, instantly making us feel comfortable and like we belonged
there. They have their own bottled water which is available at no cost anytime
from the fridge. The mud bathe there was the coolest thing. It gives you this
amazing feeling of weightlessness, since you are suspended in the thick solution,
not touching the bottom or anything, so there's no pressure on any part of
your body. The woman who was helping with the mud bath treatment (and believe
me, you need help! Getting out of that tub while you're covered with 50-100
pounds of mud is no easy task!) said that she once heard the sensation described
as how perhaps a baby must feel while still in the womb - warm, relaxed, safe,
floating. It was quite a powerful image, and soothing at the same time. The
steam room is scented with eucalyptus aromatherapy, so when you get out you
feel invigorated and stimulated, rather than lethargic. They have a wonderful
waiting room which has many windows so there is a lot of natural light, where
you can read, drink herbal teas, or even have a nap between treatments. This
was my first and best spa experience to date, and every year I check out a
new place, and compare it to this one. The food here is incredible, the service
impeccable, and the treatments all exceeded my expectations (little things
like getting to take home the "dry brush" used for your body treatments).
There isn't one thing I would have changed - except maybe next time stay for
an extra day! I would, and have, recommend it highly to anyone interested
in a relaxing spa getaway. -- V.A. |
