It's Valenine's Day this weekend, and we're often asked what people can do to celebrate special holidays in Steamboat Springs. Here's our list of the top 6 things to do in Steamboat for Valentine's Day.
- Don't just give one card, give several. Plan your day a little bit and buy several Valentine's Day cards, then hide them throughout the day. You can go to the Dollar Store in Walmart Plaza and get 4 cards for $2, so it doesn't have to set you back $15 or more. Put one in the vanity area of the bathroom, another in the car, one in a purse, another on the pillow in the evening. This year, be a romantic.
- Give Personal Gift Certificates. One of the things I enjoy most is when my wife gives me gift certificates . It could be a babysitting coupon, a gift certificate to go on a hike with me (something I like to do but she doesn't), a certificate to do what I want to do one evening, etc. The opportunities are limitless, and you know your partner better than anyone, so think of what they like and then give him/her something special!
- Forget the Chocolate, get a Couple's Massage in Steamboat. All Season Wellness, a hip, new Asian-infused Day Spa in Steamboat Springs, is the only spa in town that offers a Couple's Massage, where two people get a massage in the same room by two different therapists. If that's not perfect for the two of you, the spa also offers Massage Gift Certificates in Steamboat for other spa packages, including the Mountain Man Makeover for your guy.
- Have Lunch at Ragnar's. Located on the mountain, and only accessible by skiing, snowboarding or snowshoeing, Ragnar's is an exceptional (and romantic) restaurant, and the chocolate cake is awesome. Have a romantic day on the mountain and make Ragnor's a stop along the way.
- Make dinner reservations and have some bubbly. Here's two recommendations: on the higher end, there's Cafe Diva, our favorite restaurant in Steamboat, but a little on the expensive side. Or, since the Saint's just won the big game, go to Sunpie's Bistro on Yampa Street for some Cajon food and a very casual atmosphere with Hurricanes and po'boys.
- Live a little on the wild side at Strawberry Park Hot Springs. This treasure, a little out of town, is a natural hot springs, and is clothing optional after dark. Yes, it's true, so if you or your partner has a wild streak, head to the hot springs. You need snow tires or a four-wheel drive to get there, or use the tour bus that will transport you to this very secluded and steamy spot!
In any event, have a great Valentine's Day weekend in Steamboat, be a romantic, and enjoy time with your partner. Life is short!

A new Steamboat Springs Massage Therapy video is now on YouTube and the All Season Wellness web site under Spa Videos. The video was created shortly after our recent photo shoot by talented Steamboat Springs photographer Kim Keith.
"We wanted to give people a way to experience the spa from their home, condo or hotel room," stated Pam Peretz, owner of All Season Wellness Day Spa in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.
"We put a lot of effort into making this a very hip and contemporary Asian-infused Day Spa without making it stuffy. We hope people who visit and live here will find it a true oasis from the everyday world," Ms. Peretz explained. "There's a lot of really cool treatments especially designed for athletes, like our Signature Thai Massage and couple's massage in Steamboat."
