Moms … they are special people. No matter the time of year, mommas could use a bit of carved-out time for themselves to catch a breath, laugh out loud, sit in solace, or find a way to feed their inner being.

A mother’s love is precious. The silly songs she’d sing as you were growing up, the sweet sound of her voice (and the stern one where she emphasizes your middle name), the hugs she can never get enough of, the way she’d plan your birthday parties, and the way she licks her thumb to clean off the last bit of dried ketchup from your face … well, we’ll let that one go. Moms help make memories for us, and Nemacolin helps makes memories for moms.

Nemacolin has an abundance of resort activities, amusements, and adventures for Mom, and we’re going to introduce you to a few!

Here are The Top 10 Experiences for Mom at Nemacolin throughout the year:

#10. Art Tour

If Mom enjoys sculptures, art, being creative, and museums, Nemacolin has a host of offerings for her. Schedule an art tour of The Grand Lodge and The Chateau, stop by Falling Rock’s art tour to learn the similarities between this five-star boutique hotel and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater, take her to see antique airplanes or luxury automobiles, or give her time to immerse herself at Reflections, where you can hang out near the famous Franco Harris Immaculate Reception football while she’s taking in the views.

#9. Sporting Clays

Give her permission to answer the call of the wild at the Rod & Range Club as she experiences the excitement of shooting clay targets fired from a trap machine to simulate wild game birds in flight. The expert instructors will almost guarantee a few hits even if she’s a beginner up for a new adventure. Who knows? … she might be interested in some Fly Fishing or 3D Wilderness Archery, too.

#8. Mani & Pedi

She cherishes time to be pampered and have her toes twinkle. Make her a reservation for a pedicure, manicure, or facial at the Woodlands Spa and Salon where our skillful and attentive staff can help to soothe her mind, body, and spirit as she unwinds and finds tranquility.

#7. Laughter at the Fun Zone

How about some friendly competition with limitless virtual reality and laser tag as a family! The Fun Zone at the Hardy Girls’ Gym is the place for tumbling, swinging, climbing, bouldering, and getting your VR game on. Smiles, sniggers, and squeals are guaranteed. It’s always great to see mom grinning from ear to ear!

#6. A Sweet Suite of Enhancements

Curated wellness packages, acupuncture, specialty massage, yoga, and enhancement suite options — such as salt-water float therapy, infrared light therapy, cryotherapy, and NovaTHOR PBM therapy — are samplings of the wellness care alternatives available through the Holistic Healing Center at Nemacolin. The Wellness Experience allows her to enjoy the health benefits of several of these treatments in one magical package.

#5. Wildlife Adventures

Moms have a sweet spot for furry friends, and the resort’s Wildlife Adventures offer them in abundance. Engage in an Animal Encounter with the big cats, the lions, the tigers, a skunk, or a tortoise. Paint a masterpiece with a pony, stop by The Peak to meet some ambassador animals with Creature Feature, head to Billy Goat Mountain for a meet-and-greet, create stimulating enrichments for a few of the critters, take a walk on the wild side with a Safari Tour, or ride a bike through the habitats to see the cheetahs, wolves, and bears.

#4. Wellness Soak

Give Mom an all-inclusive ritual that will put her mind at ease and rest her body with the Ultimate Zen experience at the Woodlands Spa. This treatment includes a body scrub with her chosen scent, a facial and scalp massage, a soak in a hydrotherapy tub to be cocooned in a firming and hydrating quench, and it’s all followed by a full-body massage.

#3. Scenic Bike Ride

Borrow a bicycle from The Peak, and take a spin around some of the resort’s more than 2,200 acres. We’ll give you a map, and the adventure will be yours to imagine. Take a ride through tranquil scenery and lush landscaping on paths that meander from The Grand Lodge, past the Auto Toy Store, and all the way to Falling Rock. Explore more scenery on the meandering roads to Lake PJ and Lake Taylor, and make a stop by the Wildlife Habitats. Along the way, take a spin The Carousel, or challenge her to a round of putt-putt at Fallingbrook Mini Golf (depending on your age, she might let you win!).

#2. Dinner & Drinks

A coursed tasting menu paired with caviar and Champagne might be just what Mom sees as an indulgence. If so, we’d suggest a reservation at Lautrec. Follow that with a smoked Old-Fashioned at the Circle Bar, a cigar with a swig or swill at The Hardy Room, or some dessert and smooth cabaret entertainment at Nightcap, and Mom will have an evening to remember.

#1. Butler-Drawn Bath

You’re in the lap of luxury at a grand resort like Nemacolin, and the epitome of indulgence unveils itself through a butler-drawn bath. Meticulous in every detail, Mom can have the room to herself while the rest of you are out and about exploring. Her butler (she so deserves a butler) will transform the soaking tub into a haven of relaxation. From the perfect water temperature to fragrant bubbles or bath salts, every element will be curated to perfection. Her worldly worries will dissolve, leaving only serenity. With each ripple, her tension will fade for tranquility to reign. She’ll be forever grateful for this respite within her resort getaway.

The +1 Bonus Experiences

Moms always deserve a bit extra, and Nemacolin has so many extras from which to choose that she’ll delight in the opportunities. Learn to make fresh pasta, indulge in Afternoon Tea, play some pickleball, get in some time on the golf courses, go dogsledding, take a walk in the garden, immerse in some meditation, reserve a cabana, walk the labyrinth, or schedule an art class to take the scenery of Nemacolin home with you. With more than 300 experiences across Nemacolin, there’s something for every mom.
