If your idea of a vacation involves laying in bed doomscrolling and calling it “rest,” I’ve got some unsurprising news for you: You’re doing it wayyyyy wrong.
What you need this summer is a full-body reset. A place so peaceful, so stunning, and so uniquely engineered for relaxation that you’ll forget what stress even feels like.
No, we’re not talking about your childhood bedroom with a mini basketball hoop on the closet door (just me?).
We’re talking about a relaxing, romantic getaway just a few hours north of Columbus in the ridiculously charming town of Niagara-on-the-Lake.
It’s called 124 on Queen Hotel & Spa, and it’s not just a hotel with a spa tacked on. It’s a 12,000-square-foot destination spa designed with one purpose: to help you chill out harder than you’ve ever chilled in your life… literally.
Welcome to the Spa of the Future
Let’s start with the Snow Room. Yes, you read that right. A room. Filled with REAL snow.
It’s part of their Hydrotherapy Wellness Circuit, which uses hot-and-cold immersion therapy to kickstart your circulation, reduce inflammation, and calm your nervous system (aka, make you feel better than you ever have).
You’ll calmly bounce between warm and cool pools, a eucalyptus steam room, a sauna, and sensory showers equipped with Himalayan salt scrubs. The result? Scientific, full-body bliss.
This isn’t the kind of place where you get a massage and then hit the road. This is a place where your entire being goes on vacation.
More Than Just Spa Stuff
Once you’ve reawakened every cell in your body, you can extend the relaxation in your plush hotel room just steps away. Or pop into the Halotherapy Salt Lounge’s zero-gravity chairs for a guided meditation. Or get a facial. Or, if you’re like me, do all of the above and briefly consider selling everything you own and moving in permanently.
Even the showers here are an experience. I’m talking multi-sensory rain systems with scent, color, and sound therapy.
Plus, exploring Niagara-on-the-Lake is an experience itself. With wine tastings, horse-drawn carriage rides, art galleries, and so much more, this is the obvious choice to replace your yearly vacation to Myrtle Beach.
Why It’s Perfect For Us Ohioans
Listen, I love Ohio in the summer as much as the next person. But sometimes, Ohio summers can be, well, A LOT.
Remember when it didn’t rain for 3 months last year? That was awful. Imagine escaping the dreadful heat and burn bans with snow rooms, cold plunges, massages, and zen. One where you are treated like royalty.
Niagara-on-the-Lake has that storybook energy, and 124 on Queen elevates it to luxury retreat status.
Whether you’re planning a romantic trip, a solo recharge, or a girls weekend powered entirely by spa water and good decisions, this is the summer reset you didn’t know you needed.
Pro Tip Before You Go
Plan your visit early, book a Hydrotherapy Circuit session in advance, and prepare to be the most relaxed version of yourself since before you knew what taxes were.
Trust me. Your body (and your brain) will thank you.
