Let’s start with the accommodations at Welk Resorts as
they are above par and enticing for a getaway. Each villa suite comes with a complete kitchen furnished with dishes and cookware for preparing a romantic dinner for two. Or if cooking is not your idea of a vacation…right on the property is the marvelous Canyon Grille restaurant with indoor/out- door seating provided along with a wide array of selections for breakfast, lunch and dinner to choose from. Perhaps you just feel like kicking back in the villa suites beautiful living room and ordering a pizza? Yes. There is a Pizza Hut Express right on-site that will deliver to your suite. So, say you’ve checked in now and are looking forward to the rest of your weekend at Welk Resorts. Let’s make some plans! One of the very special attractions is the Welk Theatre
located on the resort grounds. With 339-seats, a bad theatre seat is not to be found in this intimate playhouse. An extra bonus is the horseshoe lobby which houses an historical mixture of mementos, awards and personal items from the man himself…Lawrence Welk. His legacy makes for a fascinating exploration before seeing a show there. Over the next several months, guests can take their pick of a variety of performances. During the months of May and June, Foot- loose The Musical takes the stage while at the end of July and running through August, hilarity ensues with the lunacy of Noises Off. One spectacular performer and motion picture star is set to razzle-dazzle you and that is the one-and-only Mitzi Gaynor! She brings her one-woman show to the Welk Theatre for a special engagement on September 2 through September 5. Welk Resorts has package deals available when you check in that offer substantial savings to add a night of theatre to your stay. As mentioned… The Welk Resort is on 600 acres of land. For
some, what could be more relaxing than a few hours playing a round of golf in the sunshine. There are two magnificent 18-hole golf courses on the property. The Fountains Golf and Oaks Golf courses were conceptualized by the renowned designer David Rainville and created in 1964. The resort also offers two practice greens and a chipping green. Not in the mood for the greens…no worries. A resort
wouldn’t be a resort without a pool and the Welk Resorts have multiple swimming pools located throughout the villas adjacent to the Club Houses and Recreation Centers. Whether vacationing with the nephews or nieces or kids of your own…the choices are endless. For those who prefer a children-free poolside atmosphere, there is the Serenity Pool located at the Melody Hill Recreation Center, which also offers a spa, fitness rooms, a large sauna and two lighted tennis courts. Tennis anyone? Whatever you choose to enjoy over your stay, one benefit
that is not to be missed is their aptly titled Spectacular Health and Beauty Spa. There is a tremendous amount of personal- ized treatments available for your comfort and relaxation such as massage, pedicures, manicures and facials along with a hair salon in the spa as well as herbal wraps, infra-red sauna and a beneficial treatment called lymphatic detoxification. This world-class Welk Resort is the perfect place to wash
away the stress of daily life even if just for a weekend as you unwind with high-class lodgings, entertainment and natural beauty surrounding you.
