The Spa at The Lake Estate on Winnisquam Slated for Summer 2025 Opening in NH

Slated to open in summer 2025, The Spa at The Lake Estate on Winnisquam, a 5,000 sq. ft. full-service spa, will be New Hampshire’s newest luxury destination and day spa. 

The Spa is part of The Lake Estate on Winnisquam, a new 114-room independent luxury resort to open in the quintessential New England town of Tilton, New Hampshire in the heart of New Hampshire's Lakes Region. The property was designed by Samyn-D’Elia Architects based in Holderness, NH, with interior design by Manuel de Santaren, Inc. out of Boston.

Located on Lake Winnisquam, the state's fourth-largest lake, the resort and spa are a scenic 90-minute drive from Boston and are expected to be some of the most anticipated new openings in New Hampshire, and in New England, in 2025.

Built as a world-class wellness facility, The Spa at The Lake Estate on Winnisquam will welcome resort and day spa guests. The Spa will be located on the lobby level of the estate set on 36 sprawling lakefront acres with 3,400 linear feet of private natural shoreline along Lake Winnisquam with views of the Belknap and Ossipee mountain ranges. The Spa will seamlessly blend understated elegance and luxurious comfort with a nod to its natural surroundings.

“The Lake Estate on Winnisquam is set to redefine luxury in New Hampshire and, including a world-class spa, anchors our commitment to providing an unparalleled resort experience with top-tier holistic spa and wellness services,” said Ed Rocco, general manager, and Patti Rocco, estate manager, in a statement. “Nestled amidst our gorgeous lakeside landscape in the beautiful Lakes Region of our state, The Spa is being designed to offer a sanctuary of tranquility and rejuvenation, combining innovative treatments and natural elements to create a luxuriously relaxing, revitalizing, and restorative experience for resort and day spa guests, year-round.”

The eight treatment rooms, two of which will be devoted to couples, will all feature state-of-the-art, oversized and ADA-compliant massage beds by Lemi, the Italian global leader in spa and wellness equipment. The Spa team will be professionally attired in award-winning Noel Asmar uniforms and guests will be enveloped in the plush comfort of Kashwére spa robes and luxuriate in the exquisite softness of Comphy linens.

The Spa will offer elegantly designed men’s and women’s locker rooms, each with dry saunas along with two spacious and bright luxurious relaxation lounges offering a haven of tranquility and echoing the serenity of the lake with a double-sided fireplace adding a touch of warmth. A wall of floor-to-ceiling doors lead to the outdoor mineral spa overlooking the property’s private apple orchard.

Drawing inspiration from the nourishing freshness and serenity of Lake Winnisquam and the surrounding natural woodlands, The Spa will offer a custom-curated menu of nourishing nature-inspired services of ZENTS bespoke massages, facials, body treatments, and wellness therapies. Signature massage oils, lotions, body butters and scrubs created by Connecticut-based Wild Air Skincare incorporate elements from the property and capture the essence of New England including the crisp, fresh scent of apples, the invigorating aroma of pine essential oils, and the delicate fragrance of wildflowers.

The Spa’s offerings to promote physical, emotional and spiritual wellness will include therapies such as sound therapy, forest bathing, mindful sleep rituals, and meditation. Private in-room massage will be available and outdoor massages in private cabanas will be offered seasonally.

An additional 1,500 sq. ft. terrace with views of the lake will offer a year-round outdoor oversized heated mineral spa, meditation garden, and dedicated spa fire pit. A salon on a lower level will offer styling and blow-outs and on-site customized bridal hair and make-up services, in addition to a full array of nail services, and a spa boutique will offer both local and luxury brands.

With the serene beauty of Lake Winnisquam as a backdrop and the surrounding natural woodlands, The Spa at The Lake Estate on Winnisquam will be an ideal destination for celebratory getaways, or a rejuvenating escape solo or with a partner. Curated packages for bachelorette gatherings, bridal groups, girls' weekends, as well as rejuvenating weekend retreats will be available.

The Spa will be led by New Hampshire native Martha Zyla, director of spa & wellness. Zyla brings over 20 years of experience in the retail, spa, and hospitality industries, having owned and operated a chain of retail stores throughout New Hampshire and served as spa director for Cascade Spa at Mill Falls at the Lake in nearby Meredith for more than 15 years.

“We are thrilled to open New Hampshire’s newest luxury destination and day spa this year,” said Zyla in a statement. “It is our mission to create a sanctuary inspired by the beauty of our natural surroundings and provide the space and tools for guests to discover their own path to rejuvenation, relaxation and inner connection. We are committed to continuous innovation and to exceed expectations.”

To complete the full spa day experience, guests at The Spa will be welcome to indulge in the estate’s dining options. The Dining Room, modeled after a grand lake estate, will feature floor-to-ceiling windows framing panoramic views of the lake, while The Bar will offer a cozy and sophisticated setting for enjoying casual seasonal cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, and fine wines.

The Lake Estate on Winnisquam will offer a complete destination spa getaway experience. The property will offer 96 oversized, custom-designed guest rooms and 18 luxurious suites, each exuding an elevated New England aesthetic inspired by the surrounding natural beauty. More than 70% of the rooms offer direct views of the lake, while others overlook lush woodlands. Many guest rooms will also feature private balconies or patios. All suites are enhanced by cozy fireplaces and most include balconies or patios with captivating lake views. All guest rooms and suites will be equipped with state-of-the art technology.

In addition, the property is poised to become the new premier wedding destination in New Hampshire. The Lake Estate on Winnisquam will have an in-house florist and is intentionally designed to be a year-round venue for everything from grand occasions to micro-weddings and elopements.

Tourism has made up a significant part of New Hampshire's economy since the 1800s. Grand hotels built in the late 1800s and early 1900s drew the ultra-rich to the region via new railroads that came to the region in the 1850s, transforming tourism in the state.

Located in the east-central part of the state, New Hampshire's Lakes Region sits south of the White Mountains and is a scenic 1.5-hour drive north of Boston. It's home to 273 bodies of water, the largest of which is Lake Winnipesaukee. The region has long been a traditional summer retreat for wealthy New Englanders. Today, New Hampshire’s Lakes Region is evolving into a year-round destination offering a plentitude of activities to keep luxury travelers entertained through all four seasons.
