An Expanding Retreat of Creativity and Care

This is just the beginning. We’re growing Mountain Meadow Retreat into a multidimensional nature destination, with new spaces like A-frame cabins and treehouses on the horizon. Every stay is handcrafted and deeply rooted in the land. Our goal: to build a world where kids feel wonder, adults feel freedom, and everyone finds their corner of calm.

Handcrafted From the Ground Up

Hi there, we’re Edwin and Clara. Years ago, we left city life behind to live off-grid and follow our dream of building a nature escape filled with creativity, care, and craftsmanship. What began with a single timber-frame cabin is now becoming a private retreat where guests of all ages can reconnect with nature and themselves. We built the infrastructure, carved out the trails, and shaped every stay by hand. We can't wait to share it with you.
