Editorial Review for Copperhood Inn – by Gayot.com
The Scene
The spa boasts an indoor lap pool, seven treatment rooms, seasoned masseurs, a fencing instructor and a yoga studio. As for the tennis court, it sits on an island reached by a hanging bridge. You can also enjoy guided hikes, biking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. A great room looks out onto the nearby creek and mountain and is a great setting for a wedding, banquet or conference.
The Details
The tribute to Louis XVI style is evidenced in the ornate headboards, fancy writing desks, striped chairs and gold-leafed paintings. Never mind that this is a spa in the most modern sense and in the most natural setting--the incongruity should make you smile, if nothing else. Each room has something different to offer, be it a Jacuzzi tub, bidet or oak banister staircase.

Just spent a weekend there, and it was an amazingly relaxing and spirit-nourishing experience. There are lots of places you can go, though few have the scenic, tranquil setting the Copperhood does. This place was special, not just because of the gorgeous setting, but because of the warmth and hospitality of the owner -- and she has apparently made it a point to bring in other people like herself. Picture a weekend in a warm, gracious and impeccably clean European household, but with the addition of expert beauty treatments administered by a genuinely warm and welcoming staff. The facilities included everything one would expect in a spa, heated pool, gym, jacuzzi, etc. The food is great too, and there's a pretty decent wine list. What made this place something special was the people. Every single person my equally city-stressed friend and I dealt with there was marvellous. If you're after pretentiousness and glitz, this is probably not the place you want, but if you want to spend a day (or a week) someplace that will allow you relax completely in an intimate and highly individualized atmosphere (they accomodate only about 20 guests at a time).....go!
Pros: incredible atmosphere, warm and gracious
Cons: some of the amenities are less than new

I spent 4 days at the spa with Max, my best friend. We both loved it. It reminded me of the places we used to stay with my family on Cinque Terre in Italy. Beautiful details, fresh, delicious meals, amazing views. Great wine, too. I had a wonderful facial and two SUBLIME massages. I did not feel like going back to yoga in my downtown gym after doing yoga with the sound and view of the creek. I wasn't that into the hikes and I only went once (I admit I don't love exercise) but Max went everyday and loved it. He also swam for hours in the huge pool while I went from sauna, steam room, jacuzzi...
Pros: Food, Views, Spa Services
Cons: Far away, no where to go nearby, set meal times
