Her vast…read moreknowledge about Leadership, and her incredible ability to identify aspects of your personality & current leadership style help her identify areas of focus to bring out the dynamic leader within you. The entire process is very eye-opening and rewarding. Using her gentle and clear communication style, Lucinda leads the training sessions while her horses quietly play a significant role in the Leadership work as well. It is such a unique and serene experience, learning about dynamics, human behavior, and improving your leadership skills, while standing in a beautiful field with beautiful horses interacting with you at different times during the training, conversations, and exercises. I cannot say enough positive things about working with Lucinda and her horses. I highly suggest it!

Our 11 yo daughter participated in Horses & Pathfinders camp last week and absolutely loved it!!!…read more Lucinda is simply amazing, truly. Lucinda has her heart and soul in this program - and it shows! Her assistance, Ayla, was very supportive and helpful too. The leadership learning, team building and self-growth was terrific!! This all took place while having fun, enjoying the horses and swimming in the river. Our daughter is looking forward to next summer and hopes to take a few private lessons too, as this is a special place. Thank you, Lucinda & Ayla.

The staff is super friendly and take care of all of the horses! We had a private ride that felt longer than an hour- felt like we were getting lost in the woods and fields! They took beautiful pictures of us in the yellow fields and it was perfect. Honestly one of the best rides I've ever been on with an amazing trainer, Stacey/s name I'm so sorry! All the trainers are amazing and the owner is fabulous! Hope you get to check out this amazing place to spend time in nature on horseback!

They had a lot of flexibility in when we could go. We went around 10:30am on a Sunday. It was just the two of us and our guide, who was so sweet. My boyfriend had never been on a horse and was a bit nervous at first, but all of the horses are so gentle and sweet. We spent about an hour on the trails. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to do something fun in the region.

They had several unique cabins on the property as well as "suites" with bathrooms in a larger building that also had a community area. The property is gorgeous with mountains overlooking the treeline, a large field (with Quidditch goals if you're a HP fan), a stunning lake, another community area with a kitchen attached, a barn, campfire area, and trails. There is something for everyone to do here but what I loved the most was being able to look up at the sky at night and see all the stars! If you're looking for a place to reconnect with nature, this is it!

We've gone for the family camp twice and we were there this weekend for their twentieth anniversary…read moreweekend. We are returning again this July. My kids talk about camp all year long and it has become an important part of our lives. We all love it. It's my piece of heaven on earth. We stay in the cabins. There were plenty of beds. Bunk beds and twins with a little piece that goes between two beds pushed together that eliminates that uncomfortable gap. There was plenty of shelf space for clothes as well. Some people stay in tents, others in the Eco-lodge. There are coin operated washing machines, which is important when traveling with little kids. We brought sheets, pillows, sleeping bags, lanterns and towels. There's no electricity in the cabins but there is in the dining hall and the Eco Lodge. You can charge your devices there and connect with the world if you really want to. We stayed screen free and didn't miss it at all. During family camp there are plenty of activities and kids go to Kidville for three hours in the morning. I love hiking up the mountain, relaxing by the river or taking dance classes. Others prefer glass blowing, art class or playing instruments. Activities vary by week. It's relaxing, people are great, and the campus is contained so I can give my kids more freedom than when we're at home. In the afternoons/ evenings there are organized family games like Quiddich and scavenger hunts. There's no pressure to participate but it was a lot of fun. The food is vegetarian and delicious. Meals are planned with kids in mind and there are kid friendly options. They even published a camp cookbook. For me what makes the camp is the people. Camp was built little by little and with a lot of love. The tiles in the bathroom were 2005 camper art projects, and many of those families return every year. The people who run it live what they believe and they are active in the community, they use solar power and they work hard to decrease their carbon footprint. A tour of all of the features of the Eco-lodge was fascinating. They run different camps for under served populations. Camp Kaleidoscope is for families with autistic children, Camp Outright is for LGBTQ teenagers and they run a camp for families in the midst of high conflict divorces. They don't shy away from hard situations. All families are truly welcomed and it's a non-judgmental, cooperative environment. Communication is real and the friendships are genuine. There is a bit of sticker shock but there is a sliding scale and I believe it is money well spent. The food is high quality and fresh. They invest in maintaining the property with ecologically friendly products, they provide a variety of activities for children and adults, and there are enough staff on hand to deal with issues as they arise. It has been an experience that has greatly enriched my life and my children's lives.
