Drying Out With the Stars
Fortune magazine offers a very rare glimpse inside Cirque Lodge, Utah's posh sanctuary for celebrity drunks and pill poppers. The treatment center in Sundance Canyon has hosted Melanie Griffith, Kirsten Dunst, Eva Mendes, Mary-Kate Olsen and, of course, Lindsay Lohan. Its director of operations, Gary Fisher, won't name names, but explains, "we've probably had 30 or 40 clients that you'd know immediately."
Fortune captures the wonder that is Cirque Lodge:
Even before you set foot inside the Cirque Lodge, it's monumentally obvious why people would come here. The Lodge -- a stunning structure of fieldstone, glass, and wood -- sits just up the mountain from Utah's Sundance Resort, a stone's throw from Robert Redford's Rocky Mountains estate.
With rooms for just 16 residents, it commands views that could literally lift you up when you've hit bottom. . . . From the Lodge, you can see the Cascade Cirque on 12,000-foot Mount Timpanagos, still sparkling with snow in mid-May.
All for $1,595 day, with a 30-day minimum
