Send her feedback on your reciprocal club visits at mvanslack@wac.net. espri Park City is a boutique hotel that features a first-rate spa and fitness center located in the popular Prospector neighborhood of beautiful Park City, Utah. The location of the club gives quick access to three world-class ski resorts as well as historic Main Street, lined with shopping, galleries, bars, and fine dining. Lespri translates to "good spirits" from a French Creole dialect, and that's exactly what this club wants to make you feel—or drink. In the summer, the large outdoor patio twinkles with bistro lights and is a wonderful place to sample one of the club's many wines by the glass or extensive bottle selection from the cellar. Don't let the easygoing nature of this club and its surroundings fool you. The club's urban steak and seafood restaurant, Lespri Prime, plays backdrop to some mouthwatering eats, including specialty sushi. The Prime Surf is highly recommended—it's comprised of wild lump crab and avocado and topped with USDA prime filet, spicy garlic ponzu, green onion, and yuzu tobiko (a type of caviar). The club's guest suites provide the perfect base camp for outdoor enthusiasts, a small family, or anyone looking for a convenient Park City lodging location. Each room has a king-sized bed, a queen sleeper sofa, fireplace, soaking tub, and a fully stocked kitchenette. Lespri's intimate Rain Spa practices a holistic approach to healing and relaxation. Try the muscle recovery massage, created to relieve the sore muscles caused by all that outdoor adventure. You'll say ahhhh … while relishing in the value and access your WAC reciprocal privileges provide. 10 | Washington Athletic Club Magazine | JUNe / JULy 2013 1765 Sidewinder Drive Park City, UT 84060 435.645.9696 clublespri.com Access » Lespri Park City is located in Park City, about 33 miles east of Salt Lake City International Airport, near Historic Main Street, Deer Valley Resort, and Park City Mountain Resort.
