Historic and heavenly...

✨ A First Step Into the Elim Spa Village Vision ✨

This past weekend, we were pleased to welcome our first guests into the new massage treatment area at Elim Spa Village — an exciting soft launch and the first realized piece of our spa vision here at The Estate at Meander.

We are now inviting both our local community and our lodging guests to come experience this first chapter of what Elim Spa Village is becoming: a place of rest, renewal, and reconnection in a beautiful natural setting.

And this is only the beginning.

Our thermal experience located in our historic Boxwood garden remains on track for a November opening, including:
• Hot Pool
• Cold Plunge
• Finnish Sauna
• Barrel Sauna
• Relaxation Gardens
• Relaxation Cabin & Lounge

Looking ahead, next spring we plan to open a beautiful 670 sf relaxation pool featuring relaxation beds and hydrotherapy — another important step toward bringing the full Elim Spa Village experience to life.

We are grateful to everyone supporting the journey and can’t wait to share more in the weeks to come.
