Refreshing mountain is one of the best family vacations we’ve ever had. We loved the cabins, the challenge and explorer adventures were so much fun, as well as the horse back riding lessons.

We LOVE that you guys keep coming out with new and great activities like the pedal carts. I took a walk around the ropes/climbing wall area on Saturday night and the place just seemed so cool with tiki torches out and stuff going on. You guys make a great presentation. …

Our family did the Elevated Obstacle Course, 6 adults and a 5 year old, and everyone had a great time! Our grandson was a bit intimidated at first, but by the end, he was begging to go again. Instructors were helpful and encouraging and very patient, and the course was clean even with the couple of …

Great experience!

Your staff is SOOO kind and helpful. They personally interact with us and encourage us. Team building directors are A+++, drawing spiritual lessons from the challenges but moving the group along so many activities can be tackled….

Refreshing Mountain Retreat is so beautiful during the holiday season! So many lights everywhere. The walk through the light display was brilliant. We also did the zipline experience through the light display and it was really awesome! The zipline guides were both so nice and really good at their jobs, they made us feel safe and at ease with our ziplines and took really good care of us. Would totally do this again and I will bring more friends!

This place was amazing. The light displays were so beautiful. The fire pits were on point. They were so cozy and warm you would not even want to move. Watching others zipline was so much fun. If you can bear through the cold this is definitely a place to visit.

Excellent evening of lights and adventure!Our family enjoyed the wildlife and nature center as well. Thanks for keeping the true message of Christmas crystal clear throughout! Loved the extra lights at the pond and the names of Jesus were so awesome!! Shout out to my favorite barista, Paityn! 💖

Lots of lights and a quiet, peaceful walk through the woods. Grab yourself a coffee or hot chocolate and enjoy some time with friends and family. Other places allow to many people at one time and it's difficult to enjoy. Refreshing Mountain got it right. Also, check out the wildlife during the walk. We all enjoyed this.

Great place for the Christmas lights . We did the walk through. Wear good sneakers or comfy shoes. It's hilly and rocky ! They reptiles and frogs exhibit was a great touch along with the birds. Great date night. Only suggestion is , the entrance for cars could be more well marked and lit.

We had an amazing experience. 3rd time doing lights and 1st time doing the zipline and obstacle course. My family loved it. We were so well taken care of and everyone was so kind. The lights were the best they have ever done here. We were even a tad late for the hot chocolate at the Cafe and Joel took us to the event building where staff had theirs and got my daughter her own hot chocolate to warm her up. We will def be back next year! Thanks for being amazing!

Our party of 4 had a great time! The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We felt safe as well as challenged by the course. The Christmas walk through was a fun addition too. We stopped along the way to warm ourselves by the fire. It was a delightful (but cold!) evening!

I recently went zip lining, and it was an incredible experience! The guides were fantastic—knowledgeable, professional, and made the whole adventure so much fun. They ensured we felt safe and comfortable while keeping the energy high and the laughs coming. The course was exciting with breathtaking views, and the overall experience was unforgettable.

Went to Refreshing Mountain today to zip line with my daughter and the experience from start to finish was outstanding! The property was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was welcoming and provided a smooth check in process. Our tour guides met us, explained what we were about to do, assisted with safety harness set up and made the visit great. They offered pointers and tips to help us get the most enjoyment out of today. Safety was their top priority and having fun! Can’t say enough how awesome this experience was and already planning on returning for another go with the Aerial Excursion Course. Thank you to the Refreshing Mountain Crew for providing a great experience

It was a great adventure! Our guides Kelly and Josh were fun and amazing. I really recommend if it is on your bucket list or not!

Katie Browe

Very fun! Staff members are friendly and patient. Even the "basic" package allows opportunities to participate in the Elevated Obstacles (4), Zipline (1), and enjoy seeing the reptiles, birds of prey, and farm animals. Our group of 4 had a great time. The elevated obstacles require a basic level of athleticism, but the four of us (ages teenager to 40s) navigated just fine! Will return!

My son and I did this for an afternoon excursion and had a blast. If you are a bit weird about it being a Christian place don't be, it had nothing to do with it besides the fact the staff was super nice. The two staff members that guided us were awesome and made it so much fun. We got to throw pumpkins at targets and won a free shirt and if you are brave enough can try zip lining upside-down. The course is great and the equipment is nice. I recommend this for anyone looking for fun and some adventure.

An amazing Christmas light display! The staff was pleasant and friendly and the cafe was a great way to end the lights walk with a warm cup of hot cocoa! The added bonus of the animals was a nice treat as well!
