Testimonials
“Thank you so much for creating such a peaceful place to experience God’s rest and renewal. The past few days have been so relaxing and I know that I’m leaving here refreshed and ready to face the world again. Not only has it been a restful retreat, your home has inspired me in many ways that I will take back to make my home a calmer place.”
“This is a peaceful place–a place of simplicity and beauty.”
“Very warm and inviting. Very much accommodating.”
“The room had everything I needed – warm colors, comfy bed, a bouncy chair, and windows.”
“Thank you for my time here this weekend. It was gentle & soothing. I am grateful you made it available to me. Nothing like peaceful surroundings, yummy food, meaningful conversations, and no expectations to remind a weary person that hope exists!”
“My stay here has surpassed my expectations. Thank you for providing such a peaceful place of rest.
“I slept well, better than I had in a while. Beds are nice. Rooms are so peaceful.”
“The food was so delicious and yet fairly simple to prepare. A true gift to not be allowed to lift a finger for clean-up–thank you!”
“Felt good about what I was eating and the quantity I was eating. Thanks for the chocolate!”
“The massage by Sandie was a major highlight–the springboard for the next 2.5 days. God spoke and interacted with me in a precious way. Sandie tracked patiently with everything–I relaxed as it was happening and invited God to do more. I’m so grateful for her gifting and the gift of that experience! Thank you!”
“Dave and Jody are so hospitable, kind, generous, and accessible. I felt greatly cared for and listened to.”

“Great freedom to nap through a meal without guilt.”
“Thank you for sharing splendid food, generous space, and your lives with us … Good memories of meals together, the big city tour, Speckled Bird Cafe, and of course the massage!!. The encouragement from both of you is fuel for the journey.”
“Thank you so much for your warm hospitality and for being willing to listen to me talk! I think this place was just what I needed. I feel rested and at peace and ready to face life again.”
“You’ve made space in your lives for strangers – you gave us the attention, respect and challenge normally reserved for friends. The world gives value to many worthless things. We feel we happened upon our time with you and were given something that could not be bought. We are thankful.”
“Thanks for a great week. God is so present in this place and you two have such a gift for allowing his presence to linger here and fall over your guests. I came weary and down–and I leave energized, inspired, and with a renewed sense of God’s love and hope for my future.”
