Embracing the spirit of the mountain it’s named for — openness underscored by strength, purity, surety and stillness — Ampersand Salon and Spa is a sanctuary designed to deliver an experience of your making, whether that’s to calm, renew, beautify or explore.
The “and” of Ampersand, as in the notion of “adding to” is by intent: we believe in the added benefits a spa can bring to life. From the local ingredients and traditions we incorporate, to a Tri-Lakes Revival treatment or a signature Mountain Mud Masque, the sum experience is always greater than expected.
