STEVENSON, WA, July 10, 2006. Skamania Lodge, a Pacific Northwest mountain resort managed by Destination Hotels & Resorts, offers guests the chance to create and customize their dream vacation with the Dreamers Getaway package.
The Dreamers Getaway package includes accommodations in a forest or river view room overlooking the Columbia River Gorge. Guests choose the length of the visit and handpick from a selection of dining and recreational options.
Skamania Lodge will personalize the itinerary with recommendations and make the necessary reservations to help create each Dreamers Getaway package. The Lodge offers a variety of "Things to Do" activities at the property and within the gorge, including:
. Skamania's 18-hole, par 70 golf course overlooking the Gorge and Cascades. Lessons can be arranged for all skill levels with golf professionals.
. Reflexology treatment or a hot rocks massage at the Waterleaf Spa. Or take time out with a manicure, pedicure, facial, or a special body treatment, including a Coffee and Sea Kelp Contour wrap and a Bamboo and Ginseng Body Polish.
. The USDA Forest Service, located in the Lodge's lobby, can offer tips to enjoy the outdoors and recommendations for the best hiking in the gorge and Pacific Crest Trail.
. Go extreme and spend a day on the Columbia River fishing, kiteboarding and windsurfing or white water rafting on the Little Salmon River.
. Let the Lodge's own Activities Coordinator point you in the right direction to the best wineries and breweries in the Gorge. Spend a day tasting local vintages and meet and greet with the brew makers.
"The Dreamers Getaway package introduces guests to the range of activities available at Skamania Lodge, whether they want to rejuvenate at the spa or experience an array of outdoor recreation in the Gorge," said Melissa Del Balzo, Skamania Lodge director of sales and marketing.
