Since 1983, The Heartland Spa & Fitness Resort has welcomed urbanites to its stress-free haven surrounded by 32 acres of woodland on a 3-acre lake. Aside from hosting workout facilities, the former dairy farm boasts an indoor pool and an underground tunnel that connects the manor to the spa barn and a lost realm of treasure and adventure. A low-fat, low-sodium, house-made meal courtesy of The Heartland’s chef greets arriving guests and ensures an auspicious start for journeys of fitness and relaxation. With bellies full of wholesome food, guests settle into the five-bedroom, two-bathroom Coach House for a good night’s sleep. Customers may also apply the value of this Groupon toward existing two-, three-, or five-night specials.
At breakfast, daily menus greet shining risers with vegetarian dishes before a host of activities—such as yoga, Pilates, tai chi, and cardio kickboxing—energize muscles and renew minds. With a 2-to-1 staff-to-guest ratio, The Heartland ensures that patrons are supported and pampered as they strive or unwind. Once their muscles have been thoroughly molded, ladies may lounge in a locker room fully equipped with a sauna and hot tub before ending their day with a 40-minute full-body massage. As they prepare for their departure, guests enjoy a peaceful lunch in one of The Heartland’s common areas, technology-free to avoid interruptions from cell phones and tractor beams. Check-in starts at 2 p.m. on Fridays, Sundays, or Wednesdays, and checkout ends at 4 p.m. the next day.

About Heartland Wellness Retreat and Spa
The Heartland Wellness Retreat and Spa offers all-inclusive 2, 3, 5, and 7-night getaways as well as all-day (7 am to 8 pm) packages. All retreat packages include pampering spa services from an extraordinary staff, meals designed for optimal nutrition and weight loss, fitness classes, and wellness programming. Options include fitness assessments, nutrition assessments, and private classes with various wellness professionals. Amenities include an indoor heated swimming pool, chromology hot tub, and Himalayan salt sauna. Since 1983, the Heartland has been helping people get away from it all, make lasting lifestyle changes, and reboot healthy habits. While it garnered national attention when Oprah visited the former location in Gilman Illinois, many enjoy the new location in the heart of Lake Geneva, steps from beautiful Geneva Lake. Enjoy a "smart vacation" in the Midwest's most luxurious resort town! The professional staff at the Heartland takes great pride in helping our guests relax, make and meet wellness goals, and learn to take better care of themselves. One of most common comments from departing guests is, "This was life changing!"
