THE INN AT CHRISTIE'S MILL
AVALON SPA AND THE GOLDEN GODDESS
PORT SEVERN, MUSKOKA - Avalon the Spa at Christie's Mill is synonymous with body wraps. 'We added the Deluxe Chocolate Wrap in time for Valentine's Day; it was so popular that we added our Merlot Wine Wrap, and our Full Body Detox Wrap. Our latest addition is the Golden Goddess Wrap,' states Elizabeth Borrow, Avalon's Spa Manager. 'In fact our owner, Countess Von Goertz prefers this wrap, she likes how her skin shimmers with tiny gold sparkles, the aroma says elegance and sophistication to her and the energizing affect of this treatment must be experienced to be believed,' adds Borrow when recounting her conversation with the Countess.
Avalon the Spa at Christie's Mill is located in the lake country boutique Inn at Christie's Mill located in Port Severn, the western gateway to Muskoka on Georgian Bay. The Inn has undergone many transformations over the past 8 years. The Inn known as the 'Count's Muskoka Retreat' was purchased in 2002 by Count Von Goertz, since than the Count has added a $10 Million "Counts Wing Addition" which opened in 2004 and features Avalon Spa, a Salt Water Mineral Pool and 15 'over the top suites' one of which is furnished with the Counts own Antique Furniture.
Avalon Spa's Manager encourages her guests to use the Salt Water Mineral Pool before or after their personalized treatments. 'The pool's salt water detoxifies the skin and is the perfect preparation for all of the body treatments and helps the relaxation process before entering the Countess Suite. The Countess Suite includes the River Bath which creates a cascading effect to relax the muscles in preparation for the couples massage treatments. The gentle lighting, the aromas and the soothing massage is perfect for quality time with that someone special whether it be your life partner, sister or best friend.'
The Inn at Christie's Mill has undergone extensive renovations this fall and will be reopening its doors on Friday, November 17. Avalon Spa is gearing up for the Christmas Season too. 'We have many Christmas Parties booked and a day at the spa is part of the celebration,' says Borrow. Borrow adds that many of her guests purchase an Avalon Spa Gift Certificate which is a perfect gift for that person that has everything.
