Omni Bedford Springs Resort welcomes guests to southern Pennsylvania’s Cumberland Valley for seasonal fun, luxury accommodations and relaxing spa specials. Whether a quick drive away or looking for a scenic destination to unwind and catch up, the beautiful resort boasts an iconic golf course, beautiful surroundings and luxurious accommodations year-round, but it’s really upping the ante for the holidays this year.
Escape with the family over Thanksgiving with a seasonal package, including a Thanksgiving Day feast in the Colonnade Ballroom. If the idea of not having to cook, clean and plan a big holiday meal doesn’t sound like enough to draw you to the historic estate, keep in mind the menu features seasonal comfort food items, pumpkin waffles, fried chicken and greens, alongside the already impressive menu of traditional fare.
Stay active and work off a small portion of the meal while running in the annual Turkey Trot. Lace up for the 5K race around Omni’s Old Course while raising money for Say Goodnight to Hunger. It’s a great way to get outside and see the resort property and enjoy some activity as a family.
Next up, the Grand Illumination Ceremony. Stick around for the weekend and kick off more holiday fun with the annual tree lighting, Nov. 25. Guests enjoy live carolers and ballet performances, as well as all-ages events, including pictures with Santa, face painting and sleigh rides. The kids will love the early foray into the holiday festivities.
Between all the eating, running, tree lighting and celebrating, make time for a spa treatment — after all, it’s seasonal and you’d be remiss not to.

Enjoy a warm pumpkin spice mani-pedi, featuring all the scents and scrubs of the season. Treatments begin with a pumpkin harvest foot and hand soak, followed by a bourbon body scrub exfoliant. Top it all off with a pumpkin moisturizing body butter and consider yourself ready for fall and to take on the week.
For those more in the mood for a massage, the coconut chai treatment is a relaxing process, including a full-body massage, body butter treatment and coconut crème white tea wrap to finish. Something in between the massage and mani-pedi? Try the Autumn Berry Scrub. The exfoliating treatment and mineral rinse loads the skin with antioxidants and finishes with an invigorating fig lotion. All seasonal treatments are available through Dec. 1.
