Outdoor Adventures at the Turning Stone Resort

Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels, Spas

The Lodge at Turning Stone Resort is unveiling several new getaway packages that cater to the outdoor enthusiast. Whatever your fancy, whether by air, by sea, or by land, you can experience the same elegance and service Turning Stone is known for -- but with a dash of adventure. From golf and horseback riding (lessons included) to river fishing and hot air ballooning, you may not be able to choose just one. You may even want to opt for a spa package instead and spend a few days being pampered at the Skana Spa.

Put me down for one of each, please.

Skana is a 33,000-square-foot spa, salon and fitness facility which opened on November 1. Skana (named for the Oneida tribe word for peace) uses natural products and seeks to provide all the healthy living aspects of a destination spa at a place that also provides all the attractions of the larger resort casinos. The spa uses ancient American Indian healing traditions including herbal earth remedies using sage and white pine oil and water therapies. There are 12 treatment rooms including a massive 3,500-square-foot VIP suite. The fitness center includes an an indoor pool and cardiovascular training machines. There is also a Native American Sweat Lodge and healthy gourmet cuisine is available at the Skana Spa Cafe. Skana will be used mostly by guests of smaller Lodge at Turning Stone, the all-suite luxury option at Turning Stone.
