I never said my life is hard. I'll say it here: my life is good.
I just returned from three and a half days of regaining health and focus and rejuvenating myself. My mom had a big birthday this year so I decided to gift her a trip to Canyon Ranch (with me, of course). What a selfish gift!! Truth is, my birthday was just last last week so I am going with a "joint gift" title.
We really soaked in the whole thing. The Berkshires this time of year are stellar. I love New England in the fall!
The original property is a mansion built in 1897, the Bellefontaine mansion was a private home designed by the same architect that created the NY Public Library. Additions with a more New England flair contain guest rooms and the spa and athletic facilities. The property is situated in a classic vacation destination in the Berkshires that was once home to Nathaniel Hawthorne, Herman Melville, Edith Warton and Norman Rockwell.
We took a hike to a duck blind to partake in a little al fresco watercolor painting.
My favorite room was the library. I am obsessed with it.

The indoor pool held wonderful and surprisingly challenging Aqua classes.
It was a little chilly for the outdoor pool, though it was heated.
Beautiful place and wonderful staff! I highly recommend it.
