I'm looking for an overnight getaway for our anniversary and I've heard Willows Lodge mentioned a few times on the boards. If you've been, tell me about it! How are the rooms/setting? What's fun to do nearby? If you tried the spa, how was it? I was thinking of booking massages or something as a treat.
Also, it looks like there are two restaurants: Barking Frog and Herb Farm? Which is better? I saw that Herb Farm does a multi course menu that changes daily. If you've gone to Barking Frog, anything divinely delicious we should order?
Oh and should I just book on their web site, or is their a better way to book a good deal? I signed up for their mailing list for offers and such. Phew, I think that's all!
Re: NBR: Tell me about Willows Lodge!
This is the best hotel in the state (IMO) beautiful and the rooms are amazing! DH and I have stayed their twice. Once at his sister's wedding (her reception was there) and another for our wedding anniversary. We haven't ate at either places though, my friend liked the barking frog though. You can also get packages when booking I think it's the romance package and you get a 100 credit to the barking frog, and they put rose petals in the bath.
Thanks for all the feedback so far, it sounds like a great place!! I'll have to check out those Costco gift cards.
If anyone has tried the spa, let me know what you thought! A massage sounds fabuloussssss, maybe the hot stone one? I've never had one but it sounds blissful!
My bro and his wife go there for their anniversaries, they love it. And the spa is so amazing, my brother even got a facial [shhh, no one is supposed to know about that...]
