Riverstone the Spa At the Forks

It was a lovely 1.5 hours. Robe, cucumber water, shower and very small steam room. Luckily no one else was using it. Change rooms a bit small. I had a pedicure with paraffin wax and leg massage. The massage could have been more indepth for the cost of the service, including the light salt scrub and couple minute stone rub. Pedicure itself looks amazing with polish " on point". Overall very happy but was hoping for just a bit more.

Riverstone is my go to place when I want a small, quiet, intimate setting. The staff are always lovely and the facility is clean. The snacks are a little lacking and the women's change room doesn't even offer the most basic items like hair elastics, cotton swabs, or lotion which you definitely need after the saunas. The shower stalls are luxurious though the hair products may not be for everyone. It left my hair flat and oily. The dry and wet saunas are nice features.

Reception area is nice with a place to sit to take off shoes/boots and hang coats. The body polish was not as exfoliating as I expected and not your entire body is donechest to upper thighs/buttocks not touched. Not worth the price. Much better body scrub at Urban Oasis and they give a decent massage as part of the treatment.

The Riverstone spa was a nice experience. Positives were there had a nice steam room, rainfall shower & nice coffee. Negatives were the snacks were lackluster.. stale crackers, dried fruit, the cheese was good, but not very refreshing. The massage was ok & same with the facial. For the price I'd expect a little more.

A lovely place to escape the busyness of day-to-day. Robes are required and are available in bigger sizes. Kind and courteous staff. Missing one star in my review as the price value for a massage seemed exceptionally high.

I had such a wonderful pedicure the 1st time I went. So I bought a gift card so that I could always come to you every time. The first time was December 2021. It was great. Then I went again in March 2022. Unfortunately, I got some kind of toenail fungus that and I haven't been able to get rid of it. Both my big toes are a total disgrace, I wasn't able to wear sandals all summer an d it looks as though I'll be having the same problem again this summer. What can I do to get rid of it?-I've gotten a prescription Jublia from my Doctor but am still struggling with it. I thought that your establishment was pretty safe. I'm not a user of any swimming pools, hot tubs or gyms, & not a traveler going to other countries. So I'm very disappointed with my experience and I don't know what other services I could use to make use of my gift card.

My mother, visiting from NS and I went on April 12, 2023 for my birthday. My husband payed for us to have the hydrating manicure/pedicure package. Let me tell you, it was AWFUL!!!!!! Do NOT got here!!!!!!! 2 days later and the polish is already chipping. My mothers, Taiya, was amazing and treated my mom fantastic! My girl, Lena, was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!! I left almost in tears, especially since it was my birthday. She barely said 2 words the entire time. Never warned me when putting on the paraffin, which was hot initially, especially with the surprise of it. My mom was given a nice warm towel over her eyes/ face, another girl who was brought into the room 30mins into our appt was also given one, I had nothing. Only 1 coat of polish was done on my nails, leaving it streaky and being able to see parts of my nail. Subsequently chipping 2 days later… the “massage” was a quick what I can only describe as “piano playing” with fingers up and down your half leg and arm/hand twice and was over. I then had an eyebrow wax booked, because I used vit C 5 days prior, she refused to fully wax, only 1 strip under for each eyebrow apparently it can cause peeling, yet I was charged the full price…. Then when we went into the reception and we were trying to look around at the products, the receptionist was rushing us. To the point she stood up, leaning over the counter, arm outstretched, holding the debit machine out, saying more than once what the torte was. When we asked for a min to look around, we got an eye roll and sigh, while continuing to stand, arm outstretched, with the debit machine. This was a terrible terrible place and experience. I would NEVER go back and suggest no one else go, considering the prices. This was a waste of a bday gift, and was not a nice relaxing spa day for myself and mother, whom I only get to see for 2 weeks out of a year. We spent over $500 here…. Please, do NOT GO HERE!!!!! Save your money and find somewhere else that actually treats you like a human being. Unless you book everything with Tiaya… she was fantastic and I can’t say enough nice things a about her. She is the only reason our experience was somewhat enjoyable. Avoid Lena at all costs !

I've had issues with their facials and their massages. I have complained but nothing has ever really come from it. Now I avoid them if that's what I'm looking for. Their pedicures have been great though, so that is the only thing I come here for now. The amenities are some of the best, but if you are a couple you will be separated. In Winnipeg that's pretty normal. It's often better to do a girls day for that reason instead of a couple's thing. There's more to enjoy together. They have a great sitting area with nice variety of snacks. There is a sauna, Steam room and an over head shower. Pro tip: they have one shower in the womens room that has showers from the side too.

If you’ve never had a $125 massage performed with gloves on… let me tell you… it’s not enjoyable. My friend had the same service and it was a totally different experience after we compared, certain parts of my service were skipped. The spa itself is really nice and loved the snacks. But the friction of the gloves for a full body massage was very uncomfortable. I don’t treat myself often, so it was a bit of a letdown. UPDATE: I did mention it to the manager who agreed that it should have been mentioned before my service that the person performing my service wanted to wear gloves due to covid. They only offered me 25% off a future service. But I would not spend more money there.

Lovely relaxing pedicure in a serene inviting environment but they need to put a more substantial coat of nail polish on and a decent top coat. Very sparse polish application IMO for the price one pays.
