Think you have to go back home looking like a hunter after a week in the woods? Think again. A new spa in Steamboat Springs, Colorado is offering the ultimate Mountain Man Makeover to surprise your girlfriend or wife.
The service includes three primary services:
- A full, one-hour deep tissue or Swedish massage given by a top Steamboat Springs massage therapist.
- A manicure or pedicure to bring your hands or feet back to a clean, great state of being.
- A 60-minute European facial to give you a youthful and clean glowing appearance.
"We want the guys to go back home feeling and looking their best," says Pam Peretz, owner of All Season Wellness in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. "If they spend two to three hours with us during the day, we can help them really surprise their wife or girlfriend."
The latest fashion and health trends indicate that more men than ever are taking advantage of health services like this. "Massage clearly has therapeutic benefits, but we wanted to go a step further and help the guys clean up. Most gentlemen have never had a facial or a manicure for example, and we find that they really like it," Peretz continues.
The Mountain Man Makeover package is specially priced so just about everyone can afford it. But the lasting effect is priceless.

The Steamboat Springs area and Northwest Colorado has some of the very best elk hunting in the United States and the World. If you're lucky enough to have your elk tag, you might be wondering what other things to do in Steamboat Springs after you're done hunting. Here's our list from a local's point-of-view:
- Go to The Tap House to watch your favorite football team. The Tap House in downtown Steamboat Springs at 729 Lincoln Ave. has all the satellite programming you could wish for, including NFL ticket, college games and more. It's funky downstairs location makes it a perfect spot to grab some grub and have a brew.
- Get a massage at All Season Wellness. This is Steamboat Springs premier massage facility, offering a variety of affordable deep tissue, Swedish and Thai massage specials. You can even surprise your wife or girlfriend by going for the Mountain Man Makeover before you return home, combining a great massage with a facial and a manicure or pedicure. Or, try A Calming Touch massage therapy. Both All Season Wellness and A Calming Touch have available outcall service to your location for an additional fee. Don't let your location limit you from a great health benefit and experience!
- Soak in the natural Strawberry Park hot springs a little out of town. Ask a local where the all natural hot springs are, and go for a soak with your buddies. It's a one-of-a-kind outdoor experience sure to soothe your aching body.
- Go golfing at Haymaker Golf course, almost a mile and a half above sea level. Amaze your friends with the distance you can drive (and slice) at this altitude. Haymaker is a great public course just a little south of town on Highway 40 headed towards Rabbit Ears Pass.
- Go grab some barbecue at the local's joint, Double Z Barbecue. Located one block off of Lincoln at 1124 Yampa Street, this is where the local's go for the best barbecue in Streamboat. Or, try the Steamboat Smokehouse, where you'll find some great mounts and you can throw peanut shells on the ground.
- Check out the local taxidermy shops in Steamboats. B & L Taxidermy at 1744 Lincoln does great work, as does All Seasons Taxidermy at 2354 Lincoln Ave. Both shops are a little north of town.
- Learn the history of the Yampa Valley at the coolest little historical museum in Northwest Colorado, the Tread of Pioneers museum located at 800 Oak Street, one street off the main drag of Lincoln Ave.
- Go fly fishing on the Yampa River. There are three great fy fishing shops in town, Straightline Sports, Bucking Rainbow and Steamboat Flyfisher. They offer rental equipment and guided trips.
Whatever you do, we hope you enjoy the mountains of Northwest Colorado and the magical city of Steamboat Springs, CO.
