And there's more! Your Lair week, led by the incomparable Emily Forbes, also includes a first class menu, evening cocktails, campfire entertainment, Lair-eoke, arts and crafts, Lair golf (real clubs and tennis balls!) and the now legendary Pinecrest Lake dinner cruise. It all adds up to an unforgettable vacation for you - AND for the partner of the sports enthusiast.

With daily programs offered in Pilates, yoga, partner yoga, and meditation, you will be completely relaxed and revitalized when it comes time to return home.
