Tidbits from Tim
Tim Hackett - Owner, Long Beach Lodge Resort
January/February 2025
Insiders know that February is always a special month at the resort. We’re in the heart of storm season and celebrating Valentine’s Day all month long! As part of our “Cozy Season,” February invites guests to unwind after outdoor adventures—relaxing and warming up by their in-room fireplace, perhaps with a good book and a glass of wine or two. It’s also the perfect time for a romantic getaway with our Look of Love Package. Why not pair it with a spa visit? In February, we’re offering in-house guests a 15% discount on treatments and an even greater 25% discount on couples’ treatments. Our Rainforest Spa, which opened last spring, has quickly become a favorite amenity among our guests.
February is also a special month for our four-legged visitors. During this month, dogs stay free. We waive all fees that would normally be collected, then match the amount and donate it to the local animal shelter on behalf of the lucky pups participating in the program. This initiative has helped us raise substantial funds for the shelter, which are deeply appreciated. On top of this, we’re excited to introduce a brand-new “Pet Library” for our visiting pups. You’ll have to come and see what it’s all about!
Meanwhile, our Great Room is offering exciting specials throughout February. Treat yourself to our feature Valentine’s Menu on February 14 and 15, or savor a delicious two-course menu available daily from 5–8 pm for just $39. Don’t miss our Artists at the Lodge series, showcasing Lara Palmer on February 9 from 4–5 pm and Mark Hobson on February 19 from 4–5 pm—a delightful pairing of art and dining.
Finally, our maintenance team has been hard at work during our annual closure and into the new year. We’re thrilled to be collaborating once again with KWI, the talented interior designers who helped create the lodge and have been involved in all our projects over the past 35 years. By April, guests will be able to stay in our freshly renovated rooms, including cottages, penthouses, and lodge rooms, all boasting a modern, lighter design that feels fresh, inviting, and ready to welcome you.
My very best wishes for the month of February—we would love to welcome you to the resort!
