Looking for some fun outdoor things to do in Lancaster County, PA as a family or group? Refreshing Mountain Retreat and Adventure Center was established to provide a family-friendly place for people of all ages to enjoy fun activities and to be refreshed.
My family and I recently stayed in one of the cabins at Refreshing Mountain. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, and we felt right at home in it! The staff at Refreshing Mountain are exceptional too, and we thoroughly enjoyed the zip lines, barnyard experience, and wildlife center. The guides were all super helpful and informative. I would highly recommend a cabin at Refreshing Mountain, and all 3 experiences we tried. Looking forward to our next visit!

My girls really enjoy this every year. I really appreciate the kindness of the staff and love how clean and beautiful the grounds are and you know the equipment is safe and not broken down. Kids felt safe and also like the staff knew what they were doing.My only suggestion is in the future giving the older kids the same opportunities as the younger ones. The little kids got to do the farm or horse stuff in the past and farm experience this year but the 10-11 and 12+ didn’t and honestly felt a little disappointed. Would be nice if families could go as a group to do stuff together rather then be split by age. We would Much rather be with all our friends which range from 6-13 vs being divided. Looking for to doing this again.

We took our public school class field trip here and as a teacher I was thoroughly impressed. The staff we GREAT with the kids and everything ran smoothly. The zip line was a huge hit but the students loved the other activities as well. I would highly encourage other districts to consider Refreshing Mountain for their field trips!

From start to finish it was a smooth process and a very fun and exciting day. The gentleman that headed this giant swing was hilarious and very engaging with the kids and the adults as well. I appreciate the fact that given enough time we adults who can sometimes act like kids were able to join in on the fun. I really enjoyed the gentleman that did the reptiles he was very informative and engaging plus pointed his whole talk back to the creation of God. The kids all had a great time and we appreciate all the work and all the effort that goes into organizing and implementing homeschool days. We appreciate the variety of courses and for the big kids the survival the gentleman was so kind. A nice finishing touch to the day was the certificates that were handed out in the beginning just to show that we participated in the homeschool day for our portfolios. Great job everyone!!!!😊

We went to refreshing mountain for a homeschool field trip, it did not disappoint. The grounds were well cared for , and beautiful. The staff was so nice and great with the children. I loved the family friendly atmosphere and faith based approach. The only downside is it’s far from us, if it wasn’t we would surely be visiting more often!

We went for my 45TH birthday on Good Friday and although skeptical and a bit afraid our instructors Tim and Kastor were AMAZING! They both have wonderful personalities and kept the vibe positive & exciting the entire time. We conquered the 7 zip lines and definitely plan on coming back for more activities. Refreshing Mountain is for sure a wonderful clean place that makes you feel one with nature. Thank you guys for a most unforgettable experience!

We took our nephew to the Wild Life Adventure at refreshing mountain and had such a great time. The young man directing the exhibition had so much knowledge and really cared about the kid's curious questions and even let him hold a large snake. My nephew absolutely loved it! Currently they are renovating some of the habitats but by summer season things should be good to go. Great experience.

Wonderful experience. Customer service is top notch. Employees were super polite and respectful. I and my twin girls, 11 yrs old, did the Christmas lights adventure 2 package. 2 zip lines, five high ropes course obstacles and the giant swing. The obstacles were a bit too high for my girls nerves. The attendant was so kind and patient as she helped my girls thru the course.

First time we were at RM. Will definitely go back again. We did the zip line and obstacle course during the Christmas lights. Ages of our group was 72 years to 8 years and we all enjoyed it. Very friendly staff and very patient with the youngest who was scared to do the zip line at first but the instructor worked with him and he did it!!
Josh Joyce
05:29 03 Jan 22
Did the Christmas Light #2 experience. Was hard to decide between option 1 and 2. Perhaps adding some photos on the website showing the course would help? Seemed like #1 was more time on obstacles but #2 was higher, more difficult obstacles? And giant swing was cool. Staff was friendly.Also went to the wildlife center and the guy there was really knowledgeable and took time to answer questions and even took the time to stoke the campfire for us before he left. Can’t recall his name but he did reptiles and birds of prey. Learned a lot!
Julie Hurst

Refreshing Mountain offered our family a unique and challenging experience (Christmas zip lining and obstacles) paired with quality bonding time. Our family, including three teenagers, two adults and two senior citizens thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would recommend this experience to others.

This is the second time staying at Refreshing Mountain Retreat as a family. We gave it as part of our family Christmas gift-a memory rather than a physical item. We stayed 2 nights in a cabin. It is well equipped for our family of 7 with 5 teens. The kitchen was great option to prepare some meals. It was missing a few things that I'd use regularly at home but it was enough to get by. (Ie, only one sauce pan and one fry pan, no paper products supplied except TP). There is no oven, just a cook top. I was glad I noted that before our trip as I was planning to take a prepared lasagne to bake at the cabin.We loved the Adventure package of zip line and ropes course. We also did the Escape room. It was our first attempt at one of these and although it was marked "easy", it was quite challenging! Cafe is great for a snack in the evening. Iights throughout the camp are so festive and beautiful. Many community people visit in the evenings and camp comes alive. Daytime is more sparse and peaceful. Lovely hike loop around camp is about a mile.Staff is also helpful and kind. We'll go again!

What a fun adventure! The staff were so unbelievably friendly and accommodating. The lighted path was glorious. Zipping and climbing through lighted woods was magical! Stop by the cafe for some tasty hot cocoa and treat yourself to the frozen lattes.

Had a great night at Refreshing Mountain. Our group of 8 did the zip lines and 22 obstacle package. The staff was friendly and ran things smoothly and efficiently. The atmosphere was spectacular with many Christmas lights, a campfire, and although there were other people there, we didn’t feel crowded. Definitely nice for people looking for something different to do at the holidays!

We had a fantastic experience at Refreshing Mountain. I haven’t laughed like that in a long time. Watching my daughters and nephew on the obstacle course was a sight to see!! It was a night full of fun and laughter. I love how it is full of the love of Jesus as well!!

Such a cool experience with my husband and 6 kids ages 11-17. Staff were friendly and especially the guy with birds and reptiles. He spent time and taught my family some interesting facts. We will definitely recommend to friends and come back!!

Tori Byers
05:12 20 Dec 21
We had a great time at the Refreshing Mountain walk thru light display. What made it the best is that it wasn't crowded at all, even on a weekend night. It's such a beautiful location in the woods. We loved the owls, and my kids loved the reptile building. We also got some hot chocolate at the Cafe and a s'mores kit then went to one of the fire pits and made our s'mores. The only negative thing that I would say is that the marshmallows in our kit were hard as rocks. When we cooked (burnt) them long enough, they were fine 😂 Everything else was awesome and the employees were so friendly. Definitely worth the $7/person, when you consider how expensive other walk thru displays are. We will be doing this again next year.
Fran R
04:21 20 Dec 21
So much fun! And the staff is so friendly! Lights galore, a reptile house (!!), and the cutest little cafe! We did the CHRISTMAS zipline/ropes course, and it was thrilling! We had a great night - thank you so much! Will definitely be back next year!

02:21 20 Dec 21
My two elementary age grandkids and I had the best time at Refreshing Mountain. I want to give a shout out to Madison who graciously and with much patience answered all the questions about the reptiles and took time to allow the children to hold and touch various snakes. They will be talking about their experience there for a long time. Thank you Madison for making our time there so worthwhile and so fun!
Jennifer Eberly

We came for the free Christmas walk through and drive through and some snacks in the café. I can sum up our impression by what I said to my husband at the end of the evening: "This was better than the Longwood Gardens Christmas display." I can't imagine how many hours and what expense went into creating such wonder! Our Turkish friend and her two boys couldn't stop saying how beautiful it was, and how kind and friendly the people were. We have lived in the county for over 30 years and never came to Refreshing Mountain. We are SO impressed with the whole operation, and sweet spirit, and the lovely witness. Thank you so much!

My husband and I attended the Christmas zip lining, obstacle course & giant swing. We had a great time & the staff was very friendly & helpful.

The place was very nice and clean. The animal exhibitions were very nice as well.

Picked without knowing much about the place because my grandsons, 13 wanted to go zip lining. Because going to other attractions in area thought let’s rent a cabin instead of staying in a hotel. Excellent choice. When two teenagers did not miss their Xbox even once in 4 days you know it’s amazing.

We had a great experience zip lining. The ropes course slowed us down but it was challenging and fun. We definitely hope to come back and do some more zip lining!! The staff was patient and kind.

We went for the wildlife center piece but enjoyed the grounds in general. Mark was excellent & gave us such an enjoyable experience learning about the birds of prey on site & reptiles & amphibians of PA & even beyond! The grounds are beautiful, all the staff we interacted with were friendly & helpful, the Christmas lights were fun. We’ll definitely be back!

where can I start, let's start by saying that this place is probably the friendliest place I've ever been to. Christina, Phil and Mary in the office were so sweet and pleasant and let's not forget patient (I must've asked a qazillion questions), they helped me with booking to scheduling and anything else I was curious about. Then there's Emily from the giant swing and climbing wall, Mark at the wildlife scheduling, Hannah at the Horses and farm animal experience. The woman who gave me a handful of fresh cut Lavender (sorry I didn't get her name). EVERY SINGLE EMPLOYEE was simply a pleasure to meet and interact with. As for the facilities, the entire place was clean and well kept. The room was clean and well stocked with towels and linens. my granddaughter Aubree really enjoyed the activities she did. The instructors were caring and encouraging. The pool was a great refreshing way to get some sun and relax. I myself was very impressed with the whole experience and highly recommend this place. Thank you to the entire staff. You made my stay there something I will always cherish. I will be back!! Thanks again TAMMI from Easton

My family and I recently stayed in one of the cabins at Refreshing Mountain. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, and we felt right at home in it! The staff at Refreshing Mountain are exceptional too, and we thoroughly enjoyed the zip lines, barnyard experience, and wildlife center. The guides were all super helpful and informative. I would highly recommend a cabin at Refreshing Mountain, and all 3 experiences we tried. Looking forward to our next visit!

My girls really enjoy this every year. I really appreciate the kindness of the staff and love how clean and beautiful the grounds are and you know the equipment is safe and not broken down. Kids felt safe and also like the staff knew what they were doing.My only suggestion is in the future giving the older kids the same opportunities as the younger ones. The little kids got to do the farm or horse stuff in the past and farm experience this year but the 10-11 and 12+ didn’t and honestly felt a little disappointed. Would be nice if families could go as a group to do stuff together rather then be split by age. We would Much rather be with all our friends which range from 6-13 vs being divided. Looking for to doing this again.

From start to finish it was a smooth process and a very fun and exciting day. The gentleman that headed this giant swing was hilarious and very engaging with the kids and the adults as well. I appreciate the fact that given enough time we adults who can sometimes act like kids were able to join in on the fun. I really enjoyed the gentleman that did the reptiles he was very informative and engaging plus pointed his whole talk back to the creation of God. The kids all had a great time and we appreciate all the work and all the effort that goes into organizing and implementing homeschool days. We appreciate the variety of courses and for the big kids the survival the gentleman was so kind. A nice finishing touch to the day was the certificates that were handed out in the beginning just to show that we participated in the homeschool day for our portfolios. Great job everyone!!!!😊

We went to refreshing mountain for a homeschool field trip, it did not disappoint. The grounds were well cared for , and beautiful. The staff was so nice and great with the children.

We went for my 45TH birthday on Good Friday and although skeptical and a bit afraid our instructors Tim and Kastor were AMAZING! They both have wonderful personalities and kept the vibe positive & exciting the entire time. We conquered the 7 zip lines and definitely plan on coming back for more activities. Refreshing Mountain is for sure a wonderful clean place that makes you feel one with nature. Thank you guys for a most unforgettable experience!

We took our nephew to the Wild Life Adventure at refreshing mountain and had such a great time. The young man directing the exhibition had so much knowledge and really cared about the kid's curious questions and even let him hold a large snake. My nephew absolutely loved it! Currently they are renovating some of the habitats but by summer season things should be good to go. Great experience.

Wonderful experience. Customer service is top notch. Employees were super polite and respectful. I and my twin girls, 11 yrs old, did the Christmas lights adventure 2 package. 2 zip lines, five high ropes course obstacles and the giant swing. The obstacles were a bit too high for my girls nerves. The attendant was so kind and patient as she helped my girls thru the course.

First time we were at RM. Will definitely go back again. We did the zip line and obstacle course during the Christmas lights. Ages of our group was 72 years to 8 years and we all enjoyed it. Very friendly staff and very patient with the youngest who was scared to do the zip line at first but the instructor worked with him and he did it!!
Josh Joyce
05:29 03 Jan 22
Did the Christmas Light #2 experience. Was hard to decide between option 1 and 2. Perhaps adding some photos on the website showing the course would help? Seemed like #1 was more time on obstacles but #2 was higher, more difficult obstacles? And giant swing was cool. Staff was friendly.Also went to the wildlife center and the guy there was really knowledgeable and took time to answer questions and even took the time to stoke the campfire for us before he left. Can’t recall his name but he did reptiles and birds of prey. Learned a lot!

This is the second time staying at Refreshing Mountain Retreat as a family. We gave it as part of our family Christmas gift-a memory rather than a physical item. We stayed 2 nights in a cabin. It is well equipped for our family of 7 with 5 teens. The kitchen was great option to prepare some meals. It was missing a few things that I'd use regularly at home but it was enough to get by. (Ie, only one sauce pan and one fry pan, no paper products supplied except TP). There is no oven, just a cook top. I was glad I noted that before our trip as I was planning to take a prepared lasagne to bake at the cabin.We loved the Adventure package of zip line and ropes course. We also did the Escape room. It was our first attempt at one of these and although it was marked "easy", it was quite challenging! Cafe is great for a snack in the evening. Iights throughout the camp are so festive and beautiful. Many community people visit in the evenings and camp comes alive. Daytime is more sparse and peaceful. Lovely hike loop around camp is about a mile.Staff is also helpful and kind. We'll go again!

Had a great night at Refreshing Mountain. Our group of 8 did the zip lines and 22 obstacle package. The staff was friendly and ran things smoothly and efficiently. The atmosphere was spectacular with many Christmas lights, a campfire, and although there were other people there, we didn’t feel crowded. Definitely nice for people looking for something different to do at the holidays!

We had a great time at the Refreshing Mountain walk thru light display. What made it the best is that it wasn't crowded at all, even on a weekend night. It's such a beautiful location in the woods. We loved the owls, and my kids loved the reptile building. We also got some hot chocolate at the Cafe and a s'mores kit then went to one of the fire pits and made our s'mores. The only negative thing that I would say is that the marshmallows in our kit were hard as rocks. When we cooked (burnt) them long enough, they were fine 😂 Everything else was awesome and the employees were so friendly. Definitely worth the $7/person, when you consider how expensive other walk thru displays are. We will be doing this again next year.
Fran R
04:21 20 Dec 21
So much fun! And the staff is so friendly! Lights galore, a reptile house (!!), and the cutest little cafe! We did the CHRISTMAS zipline/ropes course, and it was thrilling! We had a great night - thank you so much! Will definitely be back next year!

My two elementary age grandkids and I had the best time at Refreshing Mountain. I want to give a shout out to Madison who graciously and with much patience answered all the questions about the reptiles and took time to allow the children to hold and touch various snakes. They will be talking about their experience there for a long time. Thank you Madison for making our time there so worthwhile and so fun!

This place is beautiful! The staff were very helpful and friendly! The lights were gorgeous, and the path to see the lights was the perfect distance for all ages. Everything was beautifully built. The birds of prey and wildlife center were so cool. We will be back for a summer adventure.

This was so amazing. To watch my grandson face light up at all the lights was well worth the visit. We drove through and then enjoyed the walk through and grabbed a snack at the Cafe.

We came for the free Christmas walk through and drive through and some snacks in the café. I can sum up our impression by what I said to my husband at the end of the evening: "This was better than the Longwood Gardens Christmas display." I can't imagine how many hours and what expense went into creating such wonder! Our Turkish friend and her two boys couldn't stop saying how beautiful it was, and how kind and friendly the people were. We have lived in the county for over 30 years and never came to Refreshing Mountain. We are SO impressed with the whole operation, and sweet spirit, and the lovely witness. Thank you so much!

My kids loved playing on the awesome playground and walking through the light display! It was nice to be able to donate to an great ministry as well. When we return we'd like to pay for the wildlife center and possibly the zipline/giant swing!

We had an absolute wonderful time! We stayed in one of their cabins which are beautiful and we also bought a few zipline packages for our kids. The escape room was a plus as well. Everyone had a great time! We are already planning our trip back here for next year.

Awesome! Beautifully decorated walk through and drive thru. My family and I enjoyed it much more than the typical ' over crowded ' attractions. On the small side but very nice.

My husband and I attended the Christmas zip lining, obstacle course & giant swing. We had a great time & the staff was very friendly & helpful. They have a small wildlife area to see some reptiles & also birds-an added bonus! The cafe was open till 9pm for food & drinks also. Looking forward to going back in the summer to do more zip lines! Highly recommend!

This was a great experience for a first-time zipliner. I wish there was more ziplining versus obstacles but we still had a great time. The staff was very helpful and patient. The Christmas lights added to the beauty and we would definitely do this again.

We had a great time, staff was amazing, helpful and kind. Zip lines were great and the fact that my son who is only 6 (45 lbs) was able to do them made it even better. The obstacles were fun and challenging. Worth the 1 hour drive.
had a great time celebrating Aaron Cramer birthday with an escape room challenge with family and friends! They do an awesome job. so fun! Todd Stauffer Cordell Stauffer Ariel Good Kendall Stauffer Cameron Stauffer Carina King (and Rob and Phil)

What a beautiful surprise last evening. Both the drive and the walkway were a real treat. Allowing the donations to go to Align ministry was a blessing. Now, if onLy I would have had the courage to try the zip line!

My 11 year old grandson & I were at Refreshing Mt 11/6/21 for the Flying V zip line and ropes course. It was a great challenge for me and if Madelyn, on of the staff, weren't there I'd never gave made it through. She encouraged me and helped me all the way. GREAT staff!! I highly recommend this place. My grandson loved it too!

We rsvp for 10am.4 kids between ages 9 and 13 and 2 adults. We had so much fun at the ziplines and the elevated obstacle course. The first level of the obstacle course is tricky but easy, the 2nd level a little harder for us but still doable 😂. We didn't wait much in line. The staff was friendly and fast. The place was very nice and clean. The animal exhibitions were very nice as well.

I love this place!!!!. Everything about this place is great! The staff is amazing. Everyone was warm and welcoming. All the activities are so much fun! My husband and I had a wonderful time with our nieces and nephews. I love that there were no televisions in our cabin. We spent so much time talking, laughing and playing games. I'm so blessed to have found this place.

Picked without knowing much about the place because my grandsons, 13 wanted to go zip lining. Because going to other attractions in area thought let’s rent a cabin instead of staying in a hotel. Excellent choice. When two teenagers did not miss their Xbox even once in 4 days you know it’s amazing.

We had a great experience zip lining. The ropes course slowed us down but it was challenging and fun. We definitely hope to come back and do some more zip lining!! The staff was patient and kind. A child in our group was struggling with fear and they got her through it. Thanks for helping us make some happy memories!
Alicia Albright
02:36 06 Jun 21
The zip lining was absolutely amazing for our whole family!! The rope courses were intense. Soooooo thankful for the instructors and their patience. I personally could not have done it without them! We all felt so well taken care of especially when things got intimidating!!!

The team made this trip 5/18/21 very enjoyable! We had such a great time! The view during the zip line was amazing! I’m a person with great fear of heights and I’m so grateful for these guys taking the time to make us feel very comfortable and enjoy the experience. A.M.

Had a great time tonight doing the new Escape Room at Refreshing Mountain. Having experience with several escape rooms within our group, we were ALL very impressed with this unique and fun experience. This is one of the best escape room experiences for our family! Well worth the money! If you’re looking for a fun experience for your family or group, I encourage you to give it a try!! Great job

We went for the wildlife center piece but enjoyed the grounds in general. Mark was excellent & gave us such an enjoyable experience learning about the birds of prey on site & reptiles & amphibians of PA & even beyond! The grounds are beautiful, all the staff we interacted with were friendly & helpful, the Christmas lights were fun. We’ll definitely be back!

where can I start, let's start by saying that this place is probably the friendliest place I've ever been to. Christina, Phil and Mary in the office were so sweet and pleasant and let's not forget patient (I must've asked a qazillion questions), they helped me with booking to scheduling and anything else I was curious about. Then there's Emily from the giant swing and climbing wall, Mark at the wildlife scheduling, Hannah at the Horses and farm animal experience. The woman who gave me a handful of fresh cut Lavender (sorry I didn't get her name). EVERY SINGLE EMPLOYEE was simply a pleasure to meet and interact with. As for the facilities, the entire place was clean and well kept. The room was clean and well stocked with towels and linens. my granddaughter Aubree really enjoyed the activities she did. The instructors were caring and encouraging. The pool was a great refreshing way to get some sun and relax. I myself was very impressed with the whole experience and highly recommend this place. Thank you to the entire staff. You made my stay there something I will always cherish. I will be back!! Thanks again TAMMI from Easton

My daughter and I had a great time last Saturday. We did the rock climbing wall and the giant swing. Our guides/instructors were very nice and you could tell they love their jobs. The swing was definitely a thrill! Also, the property is beautiful and we enjoyed the unique playground and basketball court. We will definitely be back!!
