Massage Retreat & Spa company history timeline

1940

Hot springs therapy became popular in the United States in the nineteenth century and reached a pinnacle in the United States in the 1940’s.

Tracing the lineage of this Texas Hill Country wellness retreat from the 1940’s to today reveals a rich story filled with fishermen, nudists, cowboys and two best friends from college who had a vision to create the number one destination spa in the country.

In the late 1940’s Lake Austin Lodges was built as a fishing camp comprised of ten guest rooms and 36 boat slips on the lake.

1970

Sunshine Nudist Camp was a short-lived venture in the early 1970’s—the winter weather was not kind to the enthusiasts of the nudist colony, and they moved to a warmer location.

1981

The summer 1981 issue of The Bermuda Inn-formant glimpsed into the future when it included a small blurb reporting that a dietary consultant had submitted menu ideas based on the nutritional values of whole fruits and fresh fish.

1994

The Wellness Spa has grown since its beginning in 1994 and now has over 80,000 guests in our book.

1997

Seeing potential in the resort’s activity programs, cuisine and especially the staff, Michael McAdams and William Rucks purchased Lake Austin Spa Resort on January 1, 1997.
