Running Water Spa

My daughter and I went there for a spa day. They had a special, massage and foot scrub. The spa is clean. We were provided a bathrobe but the shoes were small size and we couldn't use. We went to our service. The lady that I had to me back 5 minutes late and it was basically rubbing lotion on me. She had asked me where I had problems but neglected to focus on those areas. She ended in 45 minutes. My daughter's therapist asked her if she wanted to upgrade to a deep tissue, for a fee. She did she but the therapist only really worked on one side of her back and didn't work on her hands that my daughter indicated were bothering her. The pool was nice and not many guests. The food and drinks were reasonably priced. However, they have limited amenities. No sauna or steam room.

I went to the spa and got a facial and massage. It was a relaxing experience, the staff was really friendly and professional. I had access to the other amenities as well which include the gym, sauna, and pool. The sauna is small but very clean and nice looking. The pool is a decent size and right next to the restaurant. Overall this place was great to come in for the day or to stay.

I highly recommend working with Lillian for a facial at Running Water Spa. She is extremely knowledgeable and tailored my facial to my skin needs. Lizzie, spa coordinator, also makes it a breeze to get in!

As far as day spas go, this is a basic choice. If you book a treatment, be prepared to receive an "upsell". In my case, I had booked a 50 min massage for $135 on a special. Once undressed, under the blanket, the therapist begins with a light touch. She notes that a Swedish massage (what was standard) is not very productive and she proceeds to push a deep tissue massage upgrade for an additional $37. Frankly I felt that she purposely began with the light touch to set the stage. What do you do? You are on the table, and not really able to negotiate just how your massage will go unless you agree. After the treatment, I spoke to the desk person who basically just asked how I'd be paying and tipping. Not listening or not caring. She suggested I bring my complaint to the less than sympathetic m

From checking in to checking out the experience at Running Water Spa was nothing short of amazing. The staff was professional and knowledgeable. The facial and massage I received were fantastic. Would and have recommended this spa to friends and family. Will be returning here in the future.
