This was my 1st year at the Girl’s Weekend Getaway. My friends had told me how fun it was and how beautiful the lodges and scenery were, but until you experience it yourself-it is indescribable!

Truly relaxing and enjoyable stay!  Everyone we met made us feel comfortable and welcome.  Scrumptious meal and abundant portions.  Loved the sit down experience and visiting with other guests.  Quiet and serene, just a beautiful atmosphere.  Thanks for a lovely getaway.  Will recommend a stay to family and friends. Plan to return again.

There are no words to explain how good the food is, how nice the staff is, and how comfortable the room is.  We felt like we were at home. Your staff are so accommodating, down to earth, and very professional. We can’t wait to come back.  The trails are a blast! If you get the …

What a wonderful stay!  Our children gave us a gift certificate for Christmas and wasn’t sure what to expect, especially during the drive to the Lodge-0ut in the boonies. Was greatly surprised, the Lodge was beautiful, our suite, Wood Duck Box was extremely nice and very spacious with a cozy fireplace and deck sitting.  Can’t …
