"Spa vacations, and dude ranches with spas, are growing as health-conscious dudes and guests want to get away from the work place to
escape and relax in pursuit of rest, fitness, invigoration, rejuvenation – in their quest for better health – both mental and physical. Today millions of city dude ranch
vacationers are looking to Spa Dude Ranches to fulfill their dreams of being a cowboy or cowgirl and enjoy the peace; "wellness" and pampering that go hand in hand with active and
passive spa vacations. Some Spa dude ranches offer luxury pampering, weight management, massage and aroma therapy, spiritual awareness, stress control, herbal and holistic wraps,
nutritional programs and special diets that feature low fat healthy foods for all, prevention and body conditioning. One of the real added benefits of Spa Dude Ranch Vacations is
the natural beauty and the surroundings that make each of these dude and spa ranches so unique and special. While there are many dude ranch vacations that offer massage and limited
spa programs there are only a handful of Dude Ranch Spa Vacations that truly offer many of the programs and features that traditional spas offer. Be sure to check with each dude
ranch and inquire of the level of spa treatments that they feature in addition to the horseback riding, fishing, hiking and children’s programs they may offer." --

Your Montana Destination
At the crossroads of incomparable luxury and unspoiled
wilderness lies
The Resort at Paws Up.
Distinguishing itself from the rest of the Montana resorts and standing
apart from all other Rocky Mountain resorts, the Resort at Paws Up
offers an enchanting escape into the tranquility and magnificence of
Montana's pastoral countryside.
This luxurious guest ranch and resort in Montana
is discretely nestled among some of the most breathtaking country in the
world–the picturesque Blackfoot Valley. Here, you'll live day to day, adventure
to adventure. Spend an hour, a day or a week on horseback–all in a wilderness
sanctuary you'll never forget. Cast a fly in sparkling waters to eager cutthroats,
explore the land Lewis and Clark swooned over, or indulge in sumptuous in-home
spa treatments. You'll sleep on the finest sheets amidst a landscape of
impeccable rustic elegance. It’s home to first-class adventure on a grand
scale; an experience that other Montana resorts cannot match.
Sumptuous In-Home Spa Treatments
At The Resort at Paws Up, we have masseuses
that melt muscle fatigue, stress management for executives and calming treatments
for jittery pre-wedding nerves. Our sumptuous in-home spa treatments will
bring rejuvenation, fortification and relaxation. We give new meaning
to the term "getting lost" in the woods.

 Spa
at Warner Springs Ranch
Warner Springs, CALIFORNIA
In 1844, John Warner established the Warner
Trading Post on the site now known as Warner
Springs Ranch. Early stagecoach travelers
Kit Carson, Presidents Teddy Roosevelt and
Ulysses S. Grant, and others enjoyed relaxing
and rejuvenating in the natural hot springs.
They soon became a popular stop on the historic
Butterfield Overland Stage. They say
location is everything, and everything delights
at Warner Springs Ranch. Easy access and ideal
temperatures made it a favorite getaway for
screen stars during Hollywood's heyday. Frequent
visitors included Mary Pickford, Douglas
Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin, Gary Cooper, Jean
Harlow, Clark Gable, John Wayne, and
Bing Crosby. In 1984, 140 years after John
Warner welcomed his first visitors, Warner
Springs Ranch became a private resort. Today,
spa guests can feel the same charming ambiance
well revered throughout its prosperous history.
