The Natatorium
Swim, soak and recover, all year
Next to the main building, the Natatorium is open seven days a week. Big windows fill the pool with mountain light, and the terrace hot tub looks out over the Blue Ridge.
Water takes the pressure off muscles and joints, so the pool is a favorite for recovery, sore knees and easing back into exercise. It's a great core and cardio workout, too.
What's inside
- Heated indoor pool with big windows
- A lap-swimming lane
- Room for water fitness and pool games
- Wood-paneled sauna
- Outdoor hot tub on a landscaped terrace with mountain views
Water classes
- Aqua Cardio: intervals with the water's resistance
