We needed a calm, but energizing environment to spend a weekend together, and to brainstorm ideas for upcoming events. We had no clue the beauty + serenity found in our own backyard! We stayed local in MN, instead of a National Park, but got much more bang for the buck, right here! A++ retreat. It’s rustic + cozy, and centered in a hopping, bustling town to “people watch”while toasting marshmallows! It’s hard to describe, but it’s both trendy urban AND rural Nature, at once. The utensils in the kitchen to the fire pit + the porch seating = exceptional + noteworthy experience and place!
