| - When I was a little kid, we lived a stone's throw from The Boulders. So, when I visit family and friends in the area, I always make an appointment at the Golden Door Spa for a pedicure and/or massage. They offer many other spa services, including some very different Native American treatments, and the Sonoran desert setting is simply amazing. One and only caution: pricey
So, if you are in the Phoenix area, DO make a point to drive north to Carefree and check out The Boulders. It is an absolutely beautiful resort and the town is gorgeous. Honestly, when I am there, I feel like I am on another planet......I am just awestruck by how different and beautiful the desert is in those foothills. And well, there's just something about going back to the places you grew up that makes you feel all safe and cozy. That's what the Portsmouth/Kittery bridge does to me every time I cross it, and that's what The Boulders Golden Door Spa did for me this past week.
