If you're coming for modern technology and conveniences, this place is not for you. If you hate…read morenature, this is not the place for you. If you hate God or Christians, it's also not the place for you. However, if you like nature, the mountains, picturesque scenes and are looking for peace and quiet then this is your venture. I came here for a lawyer's meditation retreat and the view from my window was amazing. It overlooked the lake and I felt like I was in the movie "Dirty Dancing." I had a private room and the layout was interesting with the sink and mirror outside the bathroom (no TV either) but the closet was huge as was the bed. I'd love to come back with a significant other or to do writing since this feels like a perfect writer's refuge. I also make it through Lookout Trail, which is a challenging route so if you're a smoker, not in the best health, have issues with heights or aren't used to climbing you may want to pick an easier route. However there are trails for all skill levels so there should be something for everyone. I had a bunch of childhood flashbacks to camping trips so you may also like it here if you like camping. The staff I met was great and happy to help with any issues. I've recommended this place to family and considering my family are Christians from NC and my nephew recently graduated from a Christian school there, I'm surprised they'd not heard of this place.

They do offer salads at every meal which compensates for the poor quality food . What ever company that supplies their food it needs to be overhauled to better quality food .

But the facility itself came across as hard and sterile. And all hard surfaces don't blend well with loud music. The service was adequate. We only stayed for one round of drinks. I had a golden ale that was pretty good, my wife ordered a margarita and what she got tasted like it came out of a cheap can. I'd come back if my buddy does another event there (maybe with earplugs), but otherwise can't see driving clear across town for what they offer.
