The Utah Springtime Getaway That Has Something For Everyone

Getaways in Utah are especially wonderful in spring for a long weekend. The weather's pleasant, but not too hot, and you'll enjoy getting back out into the state's natural beauty now that the snow has melted. With blossoms blooming all around, here's an experience that's perfect for just about everyone in the family.

The Homestead Resort was founded in 1886 after Swiss immigrant Simon Schneitter who found a rock crater with a mineral water spring on his farm.

It's now one of the best resorts in Utah.

Simon and his wife started a resort so that guests could soak in the healing mineral waters, enjoy a meal, and stay overnight.

Today, The Homestead Resort is still a peaceful sanctuary that's perfect for a weekend getaway.

Take a quiet stroll to relax and enjoy the pretty natural surroundings.

You'll find walking paths that take you through the perfectly manicured grounds and benches for sitting and enjoying the view. You can walk on a bridge that takes you right over the top of the crater.

What's the crater, you ask? It's a magical place that makes this one of the best spring getaways in Utah.

Book a package that includes soaking sessions in the crater, or purchase a pass separately. This geothermal hot spring was created more than 10,000 years ago!

Or more conventionally, splash in the outdoor pool to cool off on a hot day.

And take a dip in the indoor pool if the weather is chilly.

Homestead Golf Club is the perfect spot to spend an afternoon during the spring in Utah.

The par-71 course will offer challenges for golfers of every skill level from May 1 through October.

This lovely building is from the 1800s and holds all things wonderful and delicious.

Once used to store the dairy on the farm, it is now an ice cream parlor and coffee shop, serving the famous house-made fudge and scrumptious pastries.

Simon's Restaurant follows the founder's vision of offering warmth and hospitality to the guests.

It is conveniently located just off the lobby.

Try the famous fried chicken or the house specialty of juicy prime rib.

As night falls, snuggle into your bed in one of the guest rooms at the resort.

You'll be spoiled by the luxurious linens and top-notch accommodations here.
