Excelsior Springs Golf Club
Excelsior Springs Golf Course opened in October, 1915 with the completion of an 18-hole championship course. The club briefly expanded to 36 holes in the late 1920’s, but the Great Depression returned the club to the original 18 holes that are still in place today. This Championship 6553 yard par 72, was designed by renowned golf course architect, Tom Bendelow, who also designed Medinah Country Club, home of the 1949, 1975, & 1990 U.S.Opens as well as Olympia Fields Country Club, where they hosted the 1928 and 2003 U.S.Open and two past PGA Championships.
The Elms Hotel & Spa - Destination by Hyatt
If you are looking to receive spa services while attending our wedding, The Elms suggest booking 4 weeks in advance (I was able to get a service on the day we came, but they did say especially on the weekends that is usually not the case). Sarah has a copy of The Elms service menu, otherwise it is listed on their website, along with pricing, information on how to book an appointment, and your choice of male or female therapist. If you are in the bridal party please make sure to inform staff when making your appointment! There is also an amazing Grotto, that is available inside the Spa, this includes a steam shower, hot tub, cold plunge tub, steam sauna, dry sauna, and a self-service exfoliation bar.

Not only is The Elms provides something for everyone. In addition to the Grotto located inside the Spa, The Elms has two additional pools on site. The outdoor heated pool with hot tub, as well as the long pool in their basement, which also is home to another hot tub and a cold tub, bring your swimwear and jump on it!

Hall Of Waters Visitor Center
Since the 1800’s settlers and prospectors in the area now known as Excelsior Springs have been unearthing natural springs to which they have attributed curative powers. From anxiety to Polio, each of the springs that was discovered seemed to have its own healing use. As the area began gaining notoriety as a health resort the idea to bring a number of these water sources under one roof was approved and the Hall of Waters was born. Designed in a striking art deco fashion, the spa contained the longest water bar in the world where visitors could come and sample the out put of ten of Excelsior Springs’ natural fonts which had been redirected to the building. On tap were such aqua varietals as “calcium water,” “saline water,” and “iron manganese water.” In addition to the high-ceilinged bar area, there was also a championship size swimming pool built as well as a “Polio Pool,” and men and women’s spa areas.
