Corporate retreats, family reunions and group getaways on 50+ private acres. Meeting space, meals, trails, games and beds for 40+ — all inside one gate, thirty minutes from Sandpoint.
Something shifts when you take a group out of their everyday environment and put them among fifty-plus acres of trees. Conversations get longer. Phones stay in pockets, because there is nothing to check. The agenda gets through more, not less.
What makes this work is not the room — it is that everything is in one place. The meeting table, the dinner table, the trailhead and the beds are all inside the same gate. Nobody drives back to a motel at 9pm and quietly leaves the retreat early.
Strategy in the morning, a trail in the afternoon, dinner and a fire pit at night. One long communal table instead of a hotel ballroom, a presentation screen when you need it, and a hard stop on the outside world.
Grandparents in a cabin with a real bathroom, cousins in the yurts, everyone at the same long table by six. Forty beds means the family that only sees each other at funerals gets a whole weekend instead.
Yoga and writing retreats, church and non-profit weekends, a fiftieth birthday that deserved more than a restaurant. Quiet clearings, dark skies, and nobody else on the land.
Nothing here is compulsory — these are the rhythms groups keep landing on. Take one as written, or tell us what you want out of the time and we will help you build it.
Corporate · 3 days, 2 nights
Twelve to thirty people. Real work in the morning, real recovery in the afternoon.
Family · 3 days, 2 nights
Thirty to forty people, four generations, wildly different bedtimes.
Wellness · 4 days, 3 nights
Ten to twenty-five people. Yoga, writing, recovery — the version where the forest does the work.
One covered building that reconfigures completely, plus a great deal of outdoors to spill into.
The main gathering space, and the reason a wet forecast never cancels anything. It sets up as one long communal table for a working session, as banquet tables for dinner, or as trestle tables and a buffet for a reunion lunch. Power, lighting, and the big end door open on to the trees.
An open-air marquee for dinners under the lights, a large timber deck for ceremonies, photos and morning practice, and the meadow for lawn games, group photographs and anything that needs room.
Fire pits scattered through the property — firewood provided — plus quiet clearings in the trees for smaller conversations, meditation, or the person who needs twenty minutes alone before the next session.
This is the number that decides most group bookings, so here it is plainly. Four cabins, four luxury yurts and The Tamarack, all within a few minutes’ walk of the event building and the shared bathhouse.
| Stay | Beds | Sleeps |
|---|---|---|
| The Elk | King loft, two twins, one full | 6 |
| The Caribou (new) | Two queens, two twins | 6 |
| The Moose | Studio | 6 |
| The Goose | Studio | 4 |
| The Tamarack yurt | Queen, off-grid | 2 |
| Village yurts × 4 (new) | Two queen beds each | 16 |
| The four cabins and The Tamarack | 24 | |
| The four Village Yurts — two queens apiece | 16 | |
| The whole property sleeps | 40 | |
Two queen beds in each of the four Village Yurts is what takes the property to forty. Give us your headcount on the form below and we will come back with exactly who sleeps where — including which units suit older guests, families with small children, and anyone who would rather not be next to the fire pit at midnight.
Nobody comes home and describes the agenda. They describe the hike, the horseshoe game that got out of hand, and how many stars there were.
An easy meadow loop you can do in trainers before breakfast, a forest path through old growth, a wildflower cut-through, and a ridge climb that opens on to a hundred miles of Panhandle. Split a group across all four and everyone gets the walk they wanted.
A proper sand horseshoe pit with timber edging, cornhole and lawn games on the meadow, fire pits with firewood provided, and night skies dark enough that the Milky Way turns up without being asked. Better icebreakers than anything you can buy.
We are deliberately not a locked-in catering venue. Groups eat very differently, and a corporate offsite and a family reunion should not be forced through the same menu.
Alcohol, vendor and deposit terms are confirmed per booking — ask in your inquiry and we will send them in writing with your quote, rather than making you dig through a page of small print.
Every retreat here is quoted individually, because a twelve-person board offsite and a fifty-person reunion are not the same booking. Give us the shape of it and we will come back within 48 hours.
Forty. Four cabins — The Elk (sleeps 6), The Caribou (sleeps 6), The Moose (sleeps 6) and The Goose (sleeps 4), which is 22 — plus four luxury yurts in the village with two queen beds each, so four to a yurt and 16 across them, and The Tamarack, our original off-grid yurt (sleeps 2).
Groups almost always take the whole property. Call us with your headcount and we will map the beds before you commit.
Yes. The covered event building sets up as a single long communal boardroom table with a presentation screen, coffee service and power. Sessions in the morning, trails or lawn games in the afternoon, dinner and a fire pit in the evening — all inside one gate.
We are 30 minutes from Sandpoint, 20 from Bonners Ferry, and about 2.5 hours from Spokane International (GEG) for anyone flying in.
Yes, and most groups do. Exclusive use means the 50+ acres, all four cabins, all four luxury yurts, The Tamarack, the event building, the ceremony deck, the meadow, the fire pits and the trail network are yours alone for your dates. Nobody else is booked while you are here.
You are not locked into one caterer. Bring your own licensed caterer, use a regional caterer out of Sandpoint or Bonners Ferry, or self-cater — the cabins have kitchens and kitchenettes and the event building supports buffet service.
Tell us your plan in the inquiry and we will confirm exactly what the building can support for your group size.
Being genuinely off the grid is half the point of coming here, and coverage in this part of Boundary County is patchy. If your retreat depends on a live stream, a hybrid session or reliable connectivity, say so in your inquiry and we will tell you honestly what to expect before you book rather than after.
Late spring through early autumn is the easiest — long days, dry trails, dinner outside. Autumn is the prettiest and the quietest. Winter works for smaller indoor-focused groups who want deep snow and absolute silence, and the covered building means the weather never cancels the gathering.
Tell us the group, the goal and roughly when. We will come back within 48 hours with availability, a plan and a price — and an open invitation to come and walk the property first.
