I liked the variety of activities, the location, the flow of the schedule, and all the little details the best. I like the whole weekend the best! I don't think you could have done anything better. – Barb C.
I loved the rappelling and the yoga in the cave, and of course, I always love hiking. The food was excellent, Linda and Kristy did a great job preparing it. The cabins were great, loved having the wood burning fireplace, and there was plenty of space for 4 people. The employees at the resort, from the restaurant to the guides, were all so nice. – Name Withheld
