Anytime is a great time for a weekend getaway, but springtime is especially nice. The weather’s pleasant, but not too hot, and you’ll enjoy getting back out into Utah’s natural beauty now that the snow has melted. Here’s a weekend getaway that’s perfect for just about everyone in the family.
The Homestead Resort was founded in 1886, after Swiss immigrant Simon Schneitter found a rock crater with a mineral water spring on his farm.
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.
While you're at the resort, you'll want to spend some time in the crater. Book a package that includes soaking sessions in the crater, or purchase a pass separately.
Crater Springs Golf Course is the perfect spot to spend an afternoon. The 18-hole, par-72 course will offer challenges for golfers of every skill level.
As night falls, snuggle into your bed in one of the guest cottages at the resort. You'll be spoiled by the luxurious linens, and top-notch accommodations here.
