Beat the Winter Blues – Plan a weekend getaway!!!

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

  Let’s see…it’s cold.  It’s after the holidays…  the house looks bare from where the Christmas tree took up residence this year….  Nothing to look forward to… right?   WRONG. 

  It’s easy to feel dreary after the holidays.  Your pocketbook is still recovering from the impact and you need a “lift me up” to get you to spring…  HERE IT IS…  Take a trip to Door County.  It’s the BEST deals of the year.  And it’s a short drive and within your price range!!

  Winter is a season of romance in Door County.  Here at Glidden Lodge we offer a variety of packages that will have you and your partner happy you made the trip.  First the Crazy Little Thing Called Love gives you a $40 gift certificate to the phenominal Donny’s Glidden Lodge Restaurant and wine and roses greet you as you enter your suite. 

  Secondly we have a Tranquil Spa Retreat in which you will be given a spa voucher for services at Saguaro’s Day Spa just 10 minutes away in Sturgeon Bay.  Also we have the Winter Wonderland special in which you receive 2 trolley passes and you have a 5 hour tour (Saturdays only) of the penninsula which includes a tour of Simon Creek Winery, an old fashioned sleigh ride (weather permitting), and a fireside lunch. 

  All these packages are based on a 2 nights stay and the package price in a one bedroom for 2 nights would be $310.80 including tax (prices valid through April 2009).  The great thing about coming up to enjoy one of these romantic packages is that you will be in the BEST accomodations in the Door County area right here at Glidden Lodge.  Secluded and scenic, you will thoroughly enjoy the accomodations when you spend time with us!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM GLIDDEN!

  Time is flying and 2008 is almost gone.  New Years is upon us and we still have availability at Glidden for you to ring in the New Year while enjoying lovely accomodations on the shore of Lake Michigan.  The waves are still crashing against the shore and we do have some ice shelves but it is always wonderful to see the water all year round.

  There are New Year’s and New Year’s Eve activities happening around Door County.  Enjoy dinner over at the tempting Donny’s Glidden Lodge Restaurant.  Go out for the night or stay inside your nicely appointed suite and spend a relaxing time celebrating the New Year. 

  WOW have we got snow, snow, and more snow!!!  The cross county ski trails are OPEN!  However the snowmobile trails are closed at this time.  However more snow is in the forecast tommorrow so maybe they’ll open for the holiday.   Come enjoy the winter activites.  Skiing, snowmobiling, snow shoeing, tubing, snow boarding and more.  It’s fun for the whole family!

Happy Thanksgiving from Glidden Lodge!!
