Teton Springs Lodge & Spa announces new five-night package

VICTOR, Idaho -- Eastern Idaho's first luxury resort, Teton Springs Lodge & Spa, has created a summer package, combining all the ingredients that make a perfect summer vacation - golf, fly fishing and award wining beverages. Recently opened in December 2007, the area's finest luxury resort is situated in the heart of eastern Idaho's scenic Teton Valley. The Links, Flies, and Suds package is designed especially for travelers in search of outdoor activities during the day and suite accomodations at night.

Upon arrival in their suite, guests will find a case of locally brewed microbrews from the Snake River brewery, winner of over 100 national and international awards. Sit back and relax in this casually elegant one bedroom suite as you prepare for the days of activity ahead.

Enjoy one round of golf just steps away from the resort at The Headwaters Club, a private golf course recently ranked the #3 course in the State of Idaho by Golf Digest Magazine and #23 in the Best New Courses category by Golfweek Magazine. The course was designed by Byron Nelson, Steve Jones and Gary Stephenson and features five dedicated tee markers ranging in length from 5,500 to 7500 yards, making the course playable for golfers of all skill levels. The views of the Teton Mountains make playing even more beautiful, and you may even run into a moose at the 9th hole.

The resort is ideally located nearby the five best fly fishing rivers in the region. Indulge in the captivating scenery of the Rocky Mountain west as you enjoy unparalleled world-class fly fishing with a seasoned guide. Guests spend the day casting away on either the South Fork, Snake, Teton, Green or the Henry's Fork rivers , all of which are top-rated streams in the west. (Not to mention the many outstanding fisheries of Yellowstone National Park.) After a long day in the sun, enjoy a hearty-four course meal at The Headwaters Grille.

The Teton Springs Lodge and Spa Links, Flies and Suds package is priced at $226 per person, per night based on double occupancy and includes five nights accommodations in a one bedroom suite, a one day guided fly fishing trip, one round of golf per person at the Headwaters Club, one case of Snake River Brew and a four-course meal at The Headwaters Grille. Package price does not include taxes, gratuities or resort fee of $10.00 per room, per night.
