I booked this place over the concerns of both my sister and wife who were skeptical the place would be a bit too new-agey for their east coast sensibilities - but they both loved it. The view of the mountains and lake from our room and the common area were enough to make it worth staying there. Very short drive to nearby Stonewall Peak which is a great day hike. Not far from the Slot Canyon trail and Three Sisters Falls if you want more hiking. Staff was not just polite and courteous like you expect but warm and friendly, almost felt like family. If you don't care for lodge menu there is a nice pub right on the lake just a few minutes away. Only wish we had the time to stay an extra day.

Very quiet place to stay for couple days to recharge or reconnect with your partners. Frinedly staffs. Onsite food limited options amd just ok. I would recommend go to julian town for more option. The properties look fine. Not excellent but good enough for short stays. The property is older and do need some upkeep. I wouldnt expect a very nice room. It's small. I think 1-2 days stay is good. More than that not much to do there.

I am a teacher and I am always looking for ways to release tension. This retreat space was full of positive energy. The atmosphere was conducive to release of negative energy.
