The Best Luxury Lodges Designed for Outdoor Adventures

When we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life, there comes a time when we need a breath of fresh air. While we can visit a local park for a small taste of what this world has to offer, sometimes a weekend getaway filled with outdoor adventures is the only solution to the stresses of our daily grinds.

Especially if you live in a big city, it can be easy to forget about the natural beauty that surrounds you. However, taking time to admire the natural wonders and explore the outdoor activities that are unique to your state will give you an entirely new perspective on your home.

We are here to help you plan a getaway full of outdoor adventure without sacrificing high-quality amenities.

 

Collective Retreats Luxury Lodges

At Collective Retreats, we never want our guests to be forced to choose between outdoor adventure and luxurious accommodations.

As our guest, you will have access to intimate outdoor adventures that reflect the wonders and attractions of the area. Even better than a luxury lodge, our accommodations provide a complete indoor/outdoor experience to immerse you in the beauty of nature.

You could enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner with gourmet mealsf. Using not-notch ingredients, your meals will provide you will the energy needed for a day of exploring.

Meanwhile, your days can be filled with outdoor activities and excitement, and your afternoons can be spent embracing wellness offerings that help you re-center after a long week in the office. Finally, your mornings and evenings will be wonderfully restful in your own high-quality tent that reflects the accommodation space of a five-star hotel.

 

Luxury Accommodations With Lush Beds

While each Collective Retreats location has unique accommodation options, our most popular choice is the Summit Tent. The Summit Tent is temperature-controlled to keep you comfortable year-round, no matter when adventure calls you.

For a peaceful and relaxing start to your morning, you can take your cup of tea out onto your private deck that’s located just outside your front door. Feeling the fresh air as you watch the sunlight illuminate the surrounding foliage is a transformative experience you won’t soon forget.

After a day of exciting adventures, rinse off under your rain-style shower located in your en-suite bathroom. Complete your skincare routine at the vanity setup before turning off the lights and plugging in your phone with the bedside outlets. Finally, tuck yourself into your king-sized bed, dressed with high thread-count linens, for a night of undisturbed sleep.

There are Collective Retreats locations across the country, giving you plenty of choices for your luxury vacation. Here are some of our favorite spots and the outdoor adventures that come alongside them.

 

Enjoy the Mountains of Vail

If you want to breathe in the fresh mountain air and experience the endless potential for outdoor adventure Colorado has to offer, book a stay on Vail Collective Retreats.

 

What Can You Do in Vail?

If you aren’t familiar with fishing, you might not know that Vail is one of the biggest fly fishing destinations in the world. The impressive network of rivers and dense fish population make this the perfect place to test your fishing skills or pick up a rod for the first time.

If you want to see Colorado from a unique perspective, book a ride on one of our horseback riding tours. A local expert will take you on a two-hour journey through the ranch, giving your an insight into the history of the Vail landscapes.

Lastly, hiking can be a fantastic meditative experience, so take a walk on our wellness trail, with designated stopping points for deep breaths, mindfulness, and reflection.

 

Additional Lodging

However, the Journey Tent also features a communal setting outside, featuring lounge chairs that can easily be moved in between tents to encourage connection with the other campers.

Texas Hill Country, located between Austin and San Antonio, is a peaceful oasis known for magnificent views and a relaxing atmosphere.

 

What Is There To Do in Texas Hill Country?

The peace and solitude provided by the rolling hills and wide landscapes are reflected in the wellness activities offered on the Hill Country ranch.

For a relaxing start to your morning, book a spot in our daily sunrise yoga sessions. After you strengthen your muscles and center your mind, you will leave feeling refreshed and ready for the day.

For a mid-afternoon pampering, book an in-tent massage. A professional masseuse will come to your tent for a 60- or 90 minute-massage, designed to restore any sore or tight areas in your body.
