THE SURROUNDINGS

Situated on 120 woodland acres, Canyon Ranch is located 150 miles from New York City and 130 miles from Boston making it relatively easy to travel to. The main buildings are the Inn, the Spa, and the Bellefontaine Mansion, which are all connected by climate-controlled glass-enclosed walkways that offer great views of the surrounding woods and expansive lawns.
The Bellefontaine Mansion serves as the architectural focal point of the ranch. This replica of Louis XVI’s Petit Trianon was built by the same architects who designed the New York City Public Library. The exterior of The Mansion has been restored to its original grandeur while the interior has been completely renovated. It still contains the original library wing with wood and marble-trimmed fireplace and10-foot-high bookcases but now features a two-room Dining Room, smaller Mediterranean-inspired café that also offers grab-and-go items, a two-story solarium with conference facilities, and two spacious guest lounges with fireplaces.
