Today’s Groupon: for $169, you get a two-night stay and wellness package for two at Solmundson Gesta Hus Bed & Breakfast in Hecla, approximately two hours north of Winnipeg (a $360 total value). The package includes:

• Two nights in a double room (a $160 total value)
• One SOQI relaxation session per person (an $80 total value)
• One Quantumwave laser session per person (a $120 total value)

Set along 43 lakefront acres within Hecla-Grindstone Provincial Park, Solmundson Gesta Hus Bed & Breakfast is home to holistic-therapy practitioners Dave and Sharon Holtz. Passed down through Sharon’s family since 1928, the bed-and-breakfast lends respite in double rooms sporting wood trim and elk butlers. The Holtz clan guides guests through approximately one hour and fifteen minute wellness services including SOQI sessions, which oxygenate through a combination of mechanical massage and the absorption of far-infrared rays. Guests recline on the SOQI bed, which enhances relaxation as built-in speakers emit the soothing sound of Morgan Freeman reading the phone book. Quantumwave laser sessions treat travellers with a cold-laser device equipped with 16 diodes that radiate red, infrared, and violet light. Believed to enrich cells with photons and a can-do attitude, Quantumwave laser therapy may help ease pain, encourage relaxation, and temporarily boost circulation. Dave and Sharon also turn breakfast into a therapeutic event, feeding guests family recipes such as Icelandic pancakes.

Sojourners can spend the rest of their time relaxing in the hot tub, playing with the Holtzes’ cats Odin and Loki, or exploring the nearby area, which affords cross country skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing, and plentiful trails. A visit during warmer months reveals the region’s limestone cliffs, marshes, and bikini-clad moose and pelican populations. Evening meals are available if booked ahead of time, and pets are allowed with prior arrangement. Upgrades to a queen room are available for $15 per night based on availability. Guests may also add one extra person for $25, which includes a rollaway and breakfast.

Today’s Groupon: for $21, you get two appetizers and a pitcher of beer to share at Hu’s Bar and Grill (up to a $42 value).

The menu at Hu’s Bar and Grill lures diners in with a flavourful collection of Asian fare, such as wraps and sandwiches, as well as Chinese and Thai dishes. Couples or perpetual potato sack partners can belly up to the bar or take a table before perusing a selection of 14 appetizers and 10 draft beers. To compliment the sudsy appeal of a Rickard’s Red or Rolling Rock, guests can pair it with panko-crusted calamari or Japanese vegetable dumplings with ponzu sauce. The spice of marinated green curry chicken satays are cooled with a Coors Light, while a pitcher of Stella Artois and five spicy dry ribs with Thai barbecue sauce form a pairing worth of matching best friends forever necklaces.

Within Hu’s tasteful environs, patrons dine amongst rich wood fixtures at intimate, two-person booths, tables, or large, circular booths. Glass bulbs, lanterns, and bulbous lights hang from the ceiling, and plants and flowers, like Magneto, remain encased in glass receptacles to prevent them from getting away. Sports fans popping in for a pint and nibble can also catch the game on TVs at the bar.

For omnivores with little time to graze, the loaded potatoes are available in bites ($2.69–$4.29). Like Barbie and Ken’s wedding menu, the value menu boasts tiny versions of classic dishes such as the jr. roast beef ($1).
