Elements Spa and Salon
Step away from the water park energy and settle into Elements Spa, the lodge’s on-site adult spa and salon. Designed as a calm retreat for parents and guardians, it offers a restorative counterpoint to a family getaway, with massage therapy, facials, body treatments, nail care and waxing available on property. Wellness at the lodge also includes ways to recharge beyond the treatment room, from an on-site fitness/health club to warm-water relaxation in the water park area. Younger guests have their own separate spa experience at Scooops, an ice-cream-themed kids’ spa with manicures, pedicures, tiaras and treats, so everyone can enjoy age-appropriate pampering.
