Posed in front of a personal chiminea bonfire, pairs rest lakeside in
adirondack chairs while enjoying a private dinner of southern cuisine
accompanied by a bottle of chilled champagne, assorted truffles and
chocolate- covered strawberries. Dinner sweetly concludes with
old-fashioned s’mores given a sophisticated twist—homemade shortbread
cookies, chocolate crisp wafers, oversized pink and white marshmallows and
chocolate choices. Following dinner, starry-eyed couples snuggle beneath a
chenille blanket while listening to the serenades of nature.

Charming evenings come to a close with a butler-drawn bath set to the
ideal temperature with fragrant herbs and subtle oils. A rose petal
turndown with flowers sprinkled across Frette linens invite guests into
king-sized feather beds with goose down pillows.

Days begin with a sunrise stroll through lakeside trails accompanied by a
thermos of freshly prepared hot chocolate keeping bodies warm on chilly
mornings.

Togetherness continues with signature massages at the Mobil Four-star,
award-winning Ritz-Carlton Spa, ranked No. 4 on the list of “Top Resort
Spas in the United States” by Travel + Leisure. Aromatic oils scented in
arnica, lavender and sandalwood, coupled with the healing hands promote
relaxation through an 85 minute-long, full body massage. Both guests may
linger a little longer at the sauna, steam room, whirlpool or the 60-foot
indoor heated lap pool.
