Amazing Glamping Experience!

Been here 2x first for an anniversary staycstion and 2nd a moms staycation both times were great amazing stay. The whole property is well kept and the grounds are well manicured They’ve thought of everything you need. The bed/ pillows and blankets are so comfortable and such high quality we had a good sleep. Would come back here the 3rd time! I’d suggest to have some lighting by the bbq area.

We had an excellent experience at this glamping retreat! The comfortable tents nestled in the woods offered a unique, cozy and fun stay. We had our own private washroom which was the biggest determining factor for me when booking this place because they do have some tents that have shared washrooms. We had a tiny frog make a short visit in our tent at night but this is expected as we are in the nature! They’ve got plenty of trails around the property, 2 beautiful horses, small flower gardens, firepits, a pool, hammocks, paddling boats, and a beautiful wooden swing & comfy seating areas under gazebos with board games. The overall experience was exceptional, with friendly staff and the serene forest setting adding to the charm. Highly recommended for nature enthusiasts and couples looking to get away from the hustle bustle of city life. Definitely coming back next year :)

Great stay

Fantastic place! We were 3 ladies and stayed in the cabin. Everything is well thought out and a great place to unwind. If you can't live without your phone, cell service was very low/non-existant and this may not be the place for you. Just go, it's beautiful!

I am so thankful to discover this Whispering Spa Retreat place and so glad we had a chance to distance ourselves away from the city and all the busyness. The atmosphere in this retreat was so tranquility and staff there were so friendly and lovely. They are so friendly and make our short escape so memorable. We will definitely go back. I miss the horses in the farm there, I didn't know they love eating apples, they are so gentle and so adorable.
