Field-to-forest treatments are the focus at the award-winning Cedarbrook Lodge spa, opening in September. The spa highlights signature Pacific Northwest botanicals—cedar, spruce and dogwood—through massages and body therapies designed to reflect the region’s natural bounty. One standout series is the Rainwater Hydrotherapy Remedies: you choose a botanical base such as cedar, calendula, whispering pine, sweet almond, lemon, lavender or pure honey, then receive a full-body exfoliation followed by a rainwater rinse and a smoothing finishing cream to leave skin renewed and hydrated. For men, the Root and Rock therapy pairs a gingerroot body buff with a Brookstone Massage using heated local stones for deep relaxation and muscle relief.
Set on 18 acres of reclaimed wetlands just a short drive from downtown Seattle, the lodge provides a peaceful retreat surrounded by native trees and restored habitat. This serene location earned the property gold-level certification this year from Elite Meetings International, reflecting its commitment to sustainable operations and meeting excellence.
Dining at Copperleaf Restaurant & Bar is an integral part of the Cedarbrook experience. Named one of the city’s Top 10 restaurants by Gayot in 2014, Copperleaf emphasizes a farm-to-table approach under Executive Chef Mark Bodinet. The menu showcases the Pacific Northwest’s best ingredients, from Neah Bay halibut to Sitka Bay king salmon, and also includes a thoughtful vegetarian tasting menu. In the cozy bar, the cocktail program draws on local gardens and flavors. Signature Homegrown Cocktails include George & His Tree, a blend of Anthem Dry Cherry Cider, FinnRiver black currant brandy and Bittercube Cherry Bark Vanilla Bitters, and Mocha Frio, made with Rain City Drip Coffee Liqueur, 360 Double Chocolate Vodka, espresso sugar and cream.
Whether you come for restorative spa treatments steeped in regional botanicals, sustainable meetings and events, or seasonal, ingredient-driven dining, Cedarbrook Lodge offers a calm, nature-centered escape close to the heart of Seattle.
