I had 4 people in my group, we did the 7-line aerial excursion. 1st time at refreshing mountain and 1st time zipliners for all 4 of us! I was very nervous, but even I ended with my last 2 zip lines flying upside down! My entire group had a blast! All thanks goes to our “tour guides” Alex and Scott, they were able to make us feel welcomed, comfortable, explained everything to us and helped us have a great time. We will definitely be back!

I can not say enough WONDERFUL things about my husband's and my first adventure ziplineing and the WONDERFUL guides (who's names I just can't remember one had the coolest Kit Kat socks on....hopefully that will help with knowing who they are.)
From the time we walked into the line (I with a huge fear of heights and overall not a inch of adventure seeking in my life) they were so professional, helpful and pure fun! This was one of the best experiences in my life! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Refreshing Mountain Retreat!!! They helped me more than I can say! I will forever be grateful for putting my trust & life in their hands.

I see testimonials about Mrs Mariel Ramsey how people get paid, so I decided to try her and now I can also say that she is the most honest woman I have ever met here. Since I started investing through her in forex and crypto trading, I get my income without any issues weekly,i invested $1000 and i made a successful withdrawal of $10,300 after 7 days of trading You can also be part of this great opportunity by contacting her and start earning weekly.

What a fun place! We did the zipline and ropes course tour that took about 1 1/2 hours. The guides were so nice, knowledgeable, and helpful, especially to those that needed extra assistance. The resort is beautiful and clean. I thought it was newer but our guide said it has been around since the 1980s. I highly recommend at least a day trip, or stay a few days. It is amazing.
