Waterside Day Spa & Salon

I had wanted to get a membership here for the last few years and finally did it, starting over the summer. I’ve had incredible massages from Ezra and Joelle and facials from Riley that are keeping my sensitive skin more hydrated and smooth. Ezra and Joelle both asked and listened to where I needed the most attention and they targeted their massages to those areas, making a big difference in my neck and shoulder tightness. Riley has never pushed products but I needed a cleanser recommendation so I purchased something there that I absolutely love. As someone who has not traditionally made time for self care and gets stressed out over scheduling, parking and sometimes even spa small talk, the experience at Waterside is truly enjoyable for me. You can request quiet sessions if you’re not in the mood to chat. They offer tea while waiting and I’ve also spent a few minutes in the salt room and need to do that more often. The locals membership is a great deal; even moreso if you prepay when they offer that option in November - making it $100/month for your choice of signature massage or facial. The facial products feel calming to me and have never irritated my rosacea. It’s a treat from start to finish.

We visit Steamboat a couple times a year. The last two winters my daughters and I have visited Waterside Day Spa & Salon. We love the salt room!! Very relaxing. We have had nails, hair, facials, massages & scalp treatments. So quite a variety. Everything has been enjoyable. I am sure we will book a spa experience when we return.

Had the best experience with Kursten today! She was fast, precise, and didn’t miss a hair on my Brazilian wax! She was so gentle and has amazing technique! So happy she joined the team! I honestly LOVE everyone at waterside! Thank you for the great experiences!

My partner and I had a couples massage. Leah and Norm made a huge difference in how we felt following our 60 minute massage session. My partner kept saying even the next day how she felt lighter and couldn’t believe how much better she felt. I had very tense traps and a sore neck and the therapeutic value that I received from the massage lasted well into the next day. Also want to say how much I enjoyed my conversations with both Lindsey and Lexi. Both of them were extremely friendly and made the task of scheduling the massage and greeting us when we arrived a great experience. Will definitely go back when we have the opportunity.

A true local treasure! As someone who’s been coming here for years, I can confidently say this spa never disappoints. The facials are always top-notch — my skin glows every time — and the body massages are pure bliss. The salt room is an added bonus and the perfect way to relax and reset after a long week. What I love most is the warm, genuine care from the entire team. Their customer service is consistently excellent, and you can feel how much pride they take in what they do. It’s such a joy to support a women-owned business that goes above and beyond every single visit. If you’re local (or visiting), don’t miss out on this place — it’s hands down one of the best spas around!
