Well, 2020 turned into quite a year! The Pandemic hit us like everyone else. We had 39 retreats cancelled! We went from almost every weekend booked to no weekends booked. Fortunately for us, we were deemed lodging for essential workers and so had construction and other essential workers a good portion of the pandemic lull. We are so grateful for that! We geared up for the new lodging requirements for Covid 19 and we are still using them today.... they did not add much to our regular, thorough cleaning, so it was not a problem for housekeeping at all.
Now we are already in March of 2021! People are feeling more comfortable, we are still "Covid Cleaning" and our retreats and other events are coming back to life. We have already had several retreats this year. They have been smaller - we expected that - but they have been fun and everyone has had a good time. We have, of course, been continuing on re-doing our themed rooms. We added the Hen House, re-did the Sports World and turned Grandma's Attic into the Sewing Room. Our essential workers really enjoyed the holiday decorations, and said it felt very homey, but those have been long packed away and we are flaunting our springtime look and hoping for a nice spring arrival real soon. If you have questions about scheduling your retreat at our Event Center, please do not hesitate to call.
