What was once a landmark restaurant is now a place dedicated to wellness and rejuvenation.
The Point Wellness Spa has opened at 1430 Front Road South, in the location that was formerly Ducks on the Roof restaurant. Owners Heather and Jake Clifford and Scott and Jody Goslin were joined by a large crowd of well-wishers as the ribbon was cut last Saturday afternoon.
Heather said the idea came about one year ago and they all agreed to move forward with it. A total renovation of the building commenced and now they are open for business.
“We are very excited to be part of the business community,” she told the crowd assembled. “We are excited to pamper you.”
Heather was a nurse for 30 years and she desired to eventually run her own business. Along with her partners, that vision became reality. She said it is a full service spa that does manicures, pedicures, facials, head massages, Botox, a fitness pod, a float pod and more. Outdoor amenities are also in the works.
“We replaced everything in the building,” she said. “My husband worked all day and came here every night and worked until 11 p.m.”
They had a lot of help to get where they are at, with Heather thanking everyone for the support.
“I think the location is amazing,” she added. “Coming to Ducks on the Roof was something we did as a family. It’s a hot location.”Heather said they enjoy the fact it’s close to town but far enough away where it is quiet and less congested.
Deputy Mayor Chris Gibb cut the ribbon and praised the four owners. He said it was amazing to walk into the building and see what it has been transformed into. He said it was a great example of how Amherstburg continues to foster a vibrant and health-conscious community.
“It’s no longer Ducks on the Roof. It’s now the Point,” he said. “This place just looks amazing. We wish you all the success in the world.”
