Snowpine Lodge! A luxury lodge in Alta, Utah.

We love a good ski trip! We don’t love the tedious drive to Mammoth or June Mountain, the inevitable delayed connections through Denver to Aspen or other ski towns, and the schlepping around of yourself and all your gear that seem to come with most ski trips we’ve been on. We do love a fluffy bed and robe, delightful bar, delicious restaurant and cozy luxe environment for the pre and apres ski. Even better when the surroundings embrace the authentic old mining charm that make being in the mountains truly feel like an escape.

Retreating at the Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay!

We’re still basking in the glow of our latest Wild Precious Life Retreat! Hosted at the sublime Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay perched above the Pacific Ocean on cliffs that look like Scotland but are really just 45 minutes from San Francisco, the Ritz was the perfect luxurious cocoon for our retreat.

Even though this was our 10th retreat (!!), and we know that magic will happen as it always does, we are still in awe of how the perfect people come together to create it. This retreat was focused on manifesting — clearing what isn’t working to make space for creating all that we desire.

Maggie's Monterey Peninsula

Our Director of Development, Maggie Catbagan shares her insider tips for where to stay, eat, drink and play on the Monterey Peninsula. Her hometown of Pacific Grove may look and sound familiar if you, like us, are fans of “Big Little Lies…”

Here at the Firestone Sisters, we love a good road trip, especially one to cooler temperatures and fresh ocean air for Fall!

Love you, Lanai!

Our February trip to the idyllic island sanctuary of Lanai couldn't have come at a better time. We had just endured months of evacuations from Santa Barbara and then Mary lost her home in the January 9th Montecito mudslide. Arriving at the Four Seasons Lanai was like being enveloped in a warm, tropical hug far away from our rather harsh realities at home.

Spring Ski! The Goldener Hirsch Inn in Deer Valley, Utah

Park City has been a favorite getaway for us the last few years-- it is super easy to get to from California, incredibly quaint, and offers a plethora of skiing options. As all of you who are parents know, time away (alone!!) is hard to come by. When a visit from our mother dovetailed with Napper wrapping up a business trip in Salt Lake, we were quick to accept Lucy and my mother's generosity to stay with Ever while we had a much needed romantic ski weekend.

Can we stay in school forever? The Washington School House Hotel.

After a rowdy bachelorette weekend of bunking with 13 other women in a house in Park City, checking into the Washington School House for a night was the luxurious calm after the most fun storm. The aesthetics are immediately soothing and inspirational all at once, blending historical charm with modern luxury-- dark oak floors reclaimed from vintage barns married with soaring white beamed ceilings, a chandelier composed of antlers and crystal, fluffy white beds and linens, farmhouse light fixtures-- can you tell we were snapping pix to pin on our home inspiration vision boards?
