Sarah enjoys creating art, serving in the kids ministry at our church, and hiking while Brian enjoys photography, woodworking, hiking, and anything outdoors. We absolutely love being on Fontana Lake, mountain biking at Tsali, and hiking in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Our quaint little small town of Bryson City NC provides just enough to do while maintaining a relaxing Smoky Mountain experience!
We have a passion to see people restored to a place of peace and balance in their lives. We believe time away from it all at a cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina is a perfect way to unwind and disconnect from it all! One of the best methods of accomplishing this form of rejuvenation is a custom group retreat for your family, friends, church, or workplace!
Our journey to the Smoky Mountains began back In 2011. We took a road trip and ended up in the Bryson City NC area of North Carolina. We found this place to be beautiful, relaxing, and naturally peaceful. Not only was it peaceful but it was full of outdoor adventure! The views while on Fontana Lake were amazing! Rock Jumps into crystal clear mountain water, The Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, Mountain Biking, Kayaking, Fishing, Whitewater Rafting, Zip lines, Tail of the Dragon, Golf; what can beat that? We also enjoyed the Great Smoky Mountains National Park being so easily accessible! Another year went by and a friends and family trip was planned to the same area to share this experience with others. Everyone agreed this place was marvelous and full of rest and relaxation for the mind and body. It was a place to rejuvenate ourselves and to be ready for the coming months in our busy cultures. Another trip was planned immediately and the love and affection for the Bryson City NC area and sharing this peaceful encounter with others would continue.
To provide a place of rest to those who are weary and peace to those who are anguished. Our aspiration is for people from all walks of life to experience peace in their lives. We fully believe in rest and rejuvenation as being great for the mind, body, and spirit. Read More about our “Heart of the Hive”.
