I thoroughly enjoyed my stay during our staff retreat! So much so that I would love to return on a personal trip. I also appreciated the hayrack ride to see the Mississippi Valley.

I didn't know what to expect for a company team building trip to Nebo, IL.  Needless to say, I was blown away by this beautiful lodge. So much attention to detail and the staff was all wonderful.  I look forward to bringing my family in the future.

What a pleasant surprise! I loved the ambiance as soon as we walked in the lodge! Also loved that there was a dinner plate waiting for us when we arrived! Ms. Wanda was the BEST! So sweet! Also, enjoyed Kelsey and Austin who served us--such sweet kids! Loved 4 wheeling and shooting ! Hunter was so patient with our group. He was also an excellent instructor! Thank you for the fun filled weekend!

The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing. You can really see that Wanda and everyone on the property care so much about the resort and we're lucky to have been a part of it.

Loved all of your staff. Loved your accommodations. Thank you so much for letting us take lunch to go on the last day--that was above and beyond (and delicious too). Thank you for a great experience!

Had a great time!  Went with my wife on her staff retreat with Orchardville Church. Stayed at the Original Lodge which is very nice, clean, and plenty of space.  Had a great time of fellowship with friends and shared a lot of laughs!  Food was excellent and great people serving meals and taking care of us all. Thanks and God Bless you all!

I was pleasantly surprised with how friendly and helpful the staff was when booking the reservation.  It was also very helpful that the staff notified me of all rooming/suite accommodations as well as rules and meal preparations.  They went above and beyond to make myself and my guests happy and comfortable during our meetings and stay.  Receiving the invoice in advance was a major plus as we like to keep to a budget for our meetings as well.

Heartland Lodge is a wonderful experience for all administration.  Everyone was wonderful and the meals were incredible.  Our clay thrower, Hunter, was very fun for our clay shooting experience.

I had attended a two-day company seminar and was very impressed with the level of service for this type of function.  The facilities and food service were exceptional, along with the hay ride and campfire activities!

"With my company, we provide group health insurance, property casualty, financial products, and facilitate estate planning needs. Why I say this is because every hour of our working days, we are meeting with successful family owned business owners. "Our" best of the best owners tell us the reason they have survived all the years is because of good principles, good ownership, good employees, the willingness to serve the customer and provide a level of service! Every detail of our experience was 5 Star from the cleanliness of the rooms, the friendliness of the staff, and the best meals, I have ever had during an overnight business stay/meeting. You are special! Thank you.

What a gem!!!  I knew as opportunity came to explore, that your "Retreat" lodge was "Christian" and I found it to be a comfort and a blessing, it is evident that it is by the employee's kindness and willingness to serve, their hospitality and just the general feel one gets.  I have already recommended Harpole's Heartland Lodge to 20 of my friends.

55

Everything was great!  The food was worth the trip alone.  Every meal was excellent but the best of the best was the meatloaf!  The activities were very fun and enjoyable and both Mike and Matt went out of their way to make sure that we had a good time.  Everyone at the resort was extremely friendly and helpful.  The only negative was the gnats and that was overcome with the bug spray available at the gift shop.

Great time up at your lodge.   Excellent rooms, meals and staff.  Thanks for your hospitality!

Your staff goes above and beyond to make guests feel welcome.

Harpole’s Heartland Lodge is a diamond in the rough! A hidden gem nestled in a maze of Illinois country that most people never knew existed.  Its serenity surrounds you, its beauty captivates you, and its warmth comforts you.  With a warm staff and impeccable accommodations, Heartland Lodge is ideal for all! It is beauty, It is peace, It is God’s country.

It is a beautiful place! We loved the decor! Especially the dining room and great room! The food was amazing! So much and so delicious! Everyone was helpful and friendly. We wished we could have had more time to go outside and enjoy the balconies, etc. Super place!

Enjoy coming every year, great staff, food, facility, and surroundings! Awesome Experience!!

The accommodations, staff, food and service are all "over the top". You are a great facility and you should be very proud of what you have built over the years.  Blessing Health System has stayed at your facility for three years and I know we will be back next year.  The Blessing executive team appreciates all you do for us when we visit.

See you next year!
