This is just a beautiful nursery to poke around and smell the roses. As a bonus, the small cafe in the back has been featured in several magazines. There is a long line at lunch time.

So this is nearby in Cary. But, for the low low price of $100, though it is difficult to find anything for just 100 on their menu, you get access to a world class spa experience from 8 AM to 8 PM. This includes steam rooms saunas many relaxing lounges, fireplaces with piles of blankets, coffee tea snacks a meditation garden hot tub indoor hot tub outdoor pool showers. Lounges are separated by gender and coed. I have done 10 hours just enjoying the free stuff more than once. After getting access via the requisite $100 or more service I bring salt or coffee scrubs polish and hair treatments to make a full day of it. Check out Herons to really splurge on a treat. Lounges are separated by gender and coed.
