Step back to an era when “getting away” meant steamships, grand dining rooms, and a prescription for fresh air. In this episode, we explore America’s still-standing 19th-century luxury resorts—once the playgrounds of the weary, the wealthy, and the well-dressed. From mineral springs to ocean breezes, these destinations promised health, leisure, and maybe even a brush with your own Fountain of Youth. No corset or time machine required—just a taste for elegance and a longing to restore your mind and body the Victorian way.

Let us know what you think.
