Blue Water Spa In the Media

Raleigh The capital of North Carolina is fittingly located near the middle of the state, about a three-hour drive from Charlotte. Raleigh is a lively city full of surprises--and is well worth a 3 Day Weekend.

On this trip with Erin Haney, we find a bit of Western flair and natural appeal right outside the city. In town, we meet a famous resident who's larger than life and serves the best breakfast in town. We also dabble in the city's late-night art scene; play with fire in the kitchen; and get rubbed, scrubbed, and zapped.
