We loved the Wild West Retreat. It is a beautiful place. Shannon and Jennifer were very nice. It felt like being home. The kids enjoyed the huge area to explore and play (especially Jinxy). Even the fridge was filled when we arrived and Jennifer added fresh fruit during our stay. We couldn't think of anything we were missing.

The barn was lovingly crafted into a sturdy, tight, convenient, comfortable cabin with a huge, comfortable loft. The hand crafted king bed was one of the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. The wood stove was completely adequate for the unseasonable cold weather. The barn was so pleasant... More

Wild West Retreat was great. We stayed there while hiking in the area. I have 5 children, ages 6 to 16 and they all enjoyed it. Kid's loved the retreat, sleeping in a barn, playing in the hot tub, and playing with a pot bellied pig and friendly dog. They like exploring the property, riding bikes, and did I mention... More

The food - country cookout specials of the West - is just great, and you won´t leave hungry for sure. And the best of it all: Shannon, the boss and his lovely wife, Jenifer.

We could not have asked for better hosts than Jennifer and Shannon and our kids just loved Hazard the dog. Jennifer was quite helpful with knowledge of the area and was incredibly gracious with anything we needed. The extremely clean... More

I found the Wild West Retreat when a filled to capacity motel said, "there are no rooms in town for the Art Festival, but let me make a call." She called Shannon and Jenifer to discover that they had finished remodeling the "bunk house", ready just in time for me, the exhausted solo motorcyclist. Shannon, met me in the darkened... More

While the Wild West Retreat is technically located in a residential neighborhood, the old barn really feels private. The outside of the barn looks like it has been around a very long time, but the inside is a wonder of wood posts and heavy wood slab stairs. Even the doors are sturdy and unique wood construction with whimsical cutouts for... More
