Great Space

“We did a leadership retreat at the cabin. It was a good space for a group of us. We were able to all have our own space and privacy as well as gather for group disscussions and training. We loved it!

Fantastic Three Generation stay at ALMOST HEAVEN

“Loved almost everything about the cleanliness, cozy Cabin vibe with loads of room for all. We were six adults and one 5 year old.
We truly had a magical experience partially due to the service setting us up beforehand. Seamless. Wonderful. Will come again soon!
