The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Amazing Recreational Amenities

I absolutely loved the variety of recreational facilities at the retreat. The basketball and pickleball courts were fantastic for staying active, while the heated pool provided a perfect spot for relaxation. I particularly enjoyed spending time in the game room, which was well-equipped with air hockey, billiards, and foosball. It was an all-around fun experience that kept everyone entertained!

Delicious On-Site Restaurant

The dining experience at the retreat was a highlight of my stay. The restaurant served fantastic food and drinks, with beautiful views of the forest. After long days of exploring, it was wonderful to unwind with a meal right on site. They even cater to canine guests, which made it a great option since I brought my dog along!

Spacious and Comfortable Cabin

I stayed in a King room that was both spacious and comfortable, complete with a fridge, coffee maker, and microwave. The layout was perfect for a cozy getaway, and I appreciated the cleanliness and modern features that made it feel like home. The private balcony offered a serene view of the woods, adding a perfect touch to my stay.
