Six Senses RiverStone Estate marks the latest milestone in the brand’s thoughtful entry into the Americas market with a growing list of U.S. properties announced for locations including Telluride, South Carolina and Napa Valley. Situated on a sprawling wooded ridge, outside the quaint Western Pennsylvania town of Foxburg, just 90 minutes north of Pittsburgh, the resort will showcase Six Senses special brand of sustainable, wellness hospitality. At the confluence of the Allegheny and Clarion rivers, the 1,200 acre estate boasts a history dating back to the early 1800’s.

Scheduled to open in 2028, the wellness-focused resort and branded residences feature 77 guest rooms and 40 residences and is anchored by a majestic three-story stone mansion. Carefully restored by the estate’s former owner, the late Dr. Art Steffee, the 13,000 sq. ft. stone mansion was first constructed in the 1820’s and is set alongside a Victorian carriage house designed by renowned Philadelphia architect Frank Furness. Blending an off-grid vibe with all the luxurious amenities, the comforts are modern and the property will feature a dynamic art program across multiple art disciplines.

Guests and owners will experience the Six Senses ethos of wellness and sustainability through their offerings and will be welcomed into a community for connection and reflection. “Six Senses RiverStone Estate will provide an enchanting canvas for new layers of wellness programming, creative cuisine, meaningful connections, and leaps of faith into new discoveries,” said Neil Jacobs, CEO, of Six Senses, which is part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio.

From the over 50 miles of trails and seven miles of riverfront to the 16,000 sq. ft. Six Senses Spa, the country estate will promote wellness through all of its offerings. Guests can partake in leisurely hiking, biking and foraging or book a high-tech wellness experience or signature treatment at the Spa with scenic views. The property will also boast a 4,500 sq. ft. fitness center that will tackle everything from preparation to recovery for new and seasoned athletes. Outside the center, a 25-meter pool welcomes swimmers of all ages with a range of leisure programming and relaxed energy. On property is also an equestrian center which is home to a 22,000 sq. ft. indoor riding arena, 36 stalls with heated floors and quiet corners for an equine therapy program.

Wellness is extended as well to its food and beverage program as the cuisine will emphasize local and organic produce and game. Guests can indulge in house-made ice cream or dig into a jar of maple syrup produced onsite from the property’s 5,000+ maple trees. Along with its specialty restaurant, a central courtyard with smaller tasting bars and an Orchard Alley pop-up experience will provide additional dining options.

“Six Senses RiverStone Estate will be a peaceful refuge for guests to experience mental, physical and spiritual connection. We are stewards of the property for generations to come and share in the Six Senses ethos of sustainability, nurturing and conserving land, and revitalizing the Foxburg community. After spending time on this magical property, we knew we needed to share it with the world,” concluded Six Senses Riverstone Estate Ownership Partner, Saji Daniel.
