Typically, I come for a wax and always feel welcomed and comfortable throughout the process. During a recent visit, I decided to ask about facials (I've never had one before). Laurie (the owner) explained several to me that would be beneficial for my skin concerns. I booked an appointment for the four layer mask facial and nervously went to my appointment. After she brought me down to the room where the procedure was to be performed, she explained the series of events to be expected. Throughout her explanation she asked if I had any questions. She was very welcoming and comforting and provided a fantastic explanation for what was to be expected. After undressing and getting comfortable on the table she came in and began my facial. It was an AMAZING experience and I highly recommend it to everyone! The aromas of the product and the room were relaxing; the subtle music in the background helped me to unwind. I felt as though I was being transported to another place. Her expertise with facials made each phase feel like second nature for her hands. I am beyond words by how impressed I am from this experience. As I mentioned, this was my first facial every and so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I will definitely be setting the bar high for my future facials. I walked out of my appointment feeling extremely relaxed and my face feels softer than a baby's bottom. Honestly, I'm not sure when my face has ever felt this great! I will be back for more!

Elements is a small spa and salon on route 26--a little ways past the school and courthouse. At…read morefirst it may look like another hair dresser inside a Victorian house (there are several in Lowville) but I think this place is really something special. The owner has done a really nice job trying to make this place sophisticated and special. The first time I went here in 2009 after it first opened, she told me she was renovating the place one area at a time as she can afford it. The first time I visited there was a waiting lounge, mani/pedi room, a tanning room, salon area, massage room and facial room. When I visited this summer there is a new space for the tanning bed and a separate room for the check in/payment counter. There's also a chiropractor working in the front room where the tanning bed used to be. I know its just going to get better as the years go by. One of my favorite parts about this spa is that my family's hair-dresser-Lori now works here. My family (including my dad) have been going to her for at least 15 years now, back when she worked at another salon in town. If you haven't looked by now--look to the left--I live in Manchester, CT. My parents live at Chase Lake 3-4 months out of the year so I schedule my hair appointments around visiting during the warmer months. Getting our hair done here is just more affordable than anything back home. And its nice to work with regular people, not the "hair snobs" I've dealt with at home before. I also just really like the waiting room. There's something about that long fluffy brown carpet...its not the most beautiful thing in the world but its really soft and comfortable, lol. Its a comfy and inviting room.

Infused water, tea, yogurt, granola, and fruit were available and included. The room walked out to an outdoor area with a hot tub. Two chairs had warming blankets the other was a table with chairs to enjoy your drinks or food. The ladies locker room was nice. Every item you could imagine from essential oils, lotions, hair products, tooth brushes etc and lavender infused cold towels. There was a sauna with a sitting area and the showers were clean and beautiful. My treatment was a wrap and it came with a mimosa. The wrap was wonderful! The scrub was a great way to exfoliate. There was a shower in the room to rinse off the scrub and then the lotion made my skin so soft. The employees are very an accommodating and professional. The only drawback was the prices were pretty high compared to what I have spent in the past. I would also suggest some additional ambiance in the outdoor area. I do recommend this spa it is beautiful and very pampering.

And Donna gave me one of the best massages of my life. If that was the bare bones massage, I definitely want to try all the fancy ones. Donna used incredible aromatherapy and gentle, firm pressure. I was very close to falling asleep during my treatment, which is crazy rare for me. And afterwards, she was waiting for me with a smile and a bottle of water. The shower in the dressing room was lovely and well equipped. I loved the sauna and the lavender-infused cooling towels! Seriously, I want to move in. Just go. Can I go two days in a row?

My company held it's annual summer party here last week. The check-in procedure was pretty seamless…read moreas the social committee had everyone's room keys and info all organized before we got there. The rooms are nice. A little nicer than your standard hotel room. They have the basic amenities but the linens and towels are a little more plush. The rooms open up to a central courtyard that has a grassy area, a patio, lake access, and a dock. The courtyard area is well maintained and is generally very appealing. The only downside of my experience here was the food. The appetizers during the cocktail hour were generally pretty good. Specifically the "shots" of soup were tasty. Unfortunately dinner did not match up to the apps. It was an island themed dinner. Most of the dishes were unrecognizable but most tasted ok, not great, but not terrible either.

The Inn has gone through a ton of changes. Long ago was the time that if you said that you were…read moregoing to the Inn, it might have meant that you'd be returning after the end of the night with a few less teeth than when you left. Thankfully, the Inn has changed that image now, much to the dismay to the orthodontist community in Gananoque. The Inn has cleaned up, to the point it is now an official member of the Ontario Inns Association. The rooms are quaint, the kitchen brings out great fresh food and you can still get a decent pint there. I had the chicken pesto burger which came on a Ciabatta which impressed me with its flavour and the freshness of the accompanying salad of garden greens. Probably the best thing about the Inn is the view. Dining on the bar patio or in the main dining hall, you're able to take in the St. Lawrence River, the docks where the boat cruises lanch from, and a few of the islands in the area. It's a fantastic sight especially when the sun sets and reflects on the river. Worth the price of admission alone.
