News & Travel Specials

In search of a last minute weekend get-a-way with your significant other? Whether a Valentine’s Day celebration or a simple holiday to get away from it all, here are a few of our favorite spots to cozy-up:  

Meadowood [Napa Valley, California]
Whether newly in love, newly engaged, newlyweds or simply newly passionate about wine,
this is the perfect locale for you.

Situated in the heart of the Napa Valley, Meadowood sits on a private 250-acre estate.  It is a romantic luxury resort that offers a Michelin three-star restaurant dining experience, full-service spa, golf, tennis, croquet, hiking and swimming, just to name a few.  From cozy cottages to spacious lodges and everything in-between, this is the perfect time of year to curl up with the one you love, your favorite bottle of wine and splurge on that in-suite dining experience you’ve been talking about since your last trip together.

At Frontiers, we’re professionals at navigating around the Napa Valley. It is a place synonymous with superior wine production, is also a great getaway spot, combining extraordinary natural beauty, rich history, inviting accommodations, and some of the country’s top celebrity chef dining venues. Just an hour’s drive north of San Francisco, the Napa Valley is one of California’s two major wine regions (the other being the neighboring Sonoma Valley).

Of the myriad grapes harvested in the valley, four varieties produce the wines for which Napa is most famous: cabernet and zinfandel among the reds and chardonnay and Riesling among the whites. This region of California is now considered the most reliable of the world’s top wine areas because of its stable and moderate climate. You can visit two to four wineries in a day, ranging from the ultra-modern to the smaller, often family-run wineries scattered near the Silverado Trail. Frontiers has partnered with wine country specialists Viviani to design bespoke, private winery visits and tours; tastings with food pairings; picnics among the vines; cooking classes; and horseback riding and kayaking opportunities.

Don’t be fooled—there is more to the Napa Valley than just wine. Tree-lined streets, Victorian and Italianate houses, museums and artists’ ateliers abound.

Room category is based on double occupancy per night and starts at $475.

The 6,000-square-foot Roaring Fork Spa has become a focal point for all guests with treatment rooms; hot tubs; indoor/outdoor, heated, year-round pool; and steam rooms.

This 200,000-acre working cattle ranch straddles the border of Wyoming and Colorado, not far from the Hayden/Steamboat Springs Airport. We’ve represented Three Forks since 2002 and it’s been amazing to watch this full-service lodge develop and mature into the premier sporting property in North America. The ranch is nothing short of spectacular in every respect. Now with the launch of their new Winter Program, there are even more reasons to put The Lodge and Spa at Three Forks Ranch on your travel list. 

The Winter Season program is offered from mid-December to mid-March, affording guests the exclusive opportunity to experience the high country of Colorado and Wyoming during the spectacular winter season. Imagine groomed and fresh powder runs that have never felt the bottom of a ski before. These long, beautiful runs, which crisscross Three Forks Mountain for miles and miles of open and tree skiing, are only available to their guests. That means that the first tracks you see will probably be your own! We had a full tour of the mountain and were overwhelmingly impressed with the variety of the terrain. Guests who went this past season returned with rave reviews.

Guests enjoy a myriad of outdoor activities including over 16 miles of private fly fishing waters, an equestrian program, sporting clays, hiking, mountain biking and hunting. With something for everyone, you could even take the kids along!

Whatever you prefer, the staff at The Lodge and Spa at Three Forks Ranch will customize your powder days to make sure your experience is unforgettable. All of this at an all-inclusive price – with air fare!
