What People Are Saying
The pictures of the retreat simply do not do it justice. The general aesthetics (natural and manmade), the quality of the facilities, and both ease and convenience of how they operate are top-shelf, surpassing many top “Brick and mortar” resorts I’ve experienced in the past.

We have been coming to the retreat every year since 2020. Just the best! The retreat is the perfect place to unwind and recharge after a day of island adventuring. Maria & Brian thoughtfully curate each detail of the guest experience. The only regret you could have here is not booking a longer stay.

Stop Looking. Stay Here. It's all that AND a bowl of chips. What a great place to unplug and relax! The grounds are immaculate as well as the high-end tents. Included are a chef's level kitchen, washer and dryer, Starlink internet, fresh delicious coffee ready and waiting each morning, along with 5-star service.

My husband and I and our two dogs stayed here this Labor Day weekend and it exceeded our every expectation, and our expectations were very high. Now I understand why every review is 5 stars…

We had a wonderful few days. We loved so many things - Retreat had everything we needed - just pack clothes and then head to the market 🙂 - Very very clean campsite, restrooms, common areas. - Beds were very comfortable - Close to the airport when you fly in - Beautiful lake views only a short drive - Staff always helpful and close for anything you need night and day. - Recycling and care they take of the environment is outstanding - Great recommendations for dinner out Highly recommend for a relaxing vacation !

Great location, luxurious accommodations, every last detail is well thought out from the gift basket provided to the professional grade kitchen. We could not have asked for anything else.
