We have added two galleries full of pictures of the retreat. You can find them on our Home Page. The Retreat gallery has many pictures of what the place looks like now that it’s finished. We also have a Crafting gallery that shows the retreat in use.

 

Please take a few minutes and take a look.

 

Also, I have updated our What’s New page with our current smoking hot summer specials! You don’t want to miss out on our great introductory rentals this summer.

 

If you are interested in attending a hosted weekend you are in luck to. The weekends of July 11th-13th and Sept 12th-14th will reserved for a hosted weekend. This is a great way to come and try us out.

 

You will be treated to wonderful home cooked meals and snacks. No need to take time out of your stay to cook or clean up! Meals include Friday dinner, Saturday breakfast, lunch and dinner and Sunday brunch.

 

I hope to see you soon at Tall Oaks Retreat.

 

 

WOW!! We had a wonderful group of people for our Open House!! 

I am so thankfull for everyone who stopped in to take a look and those who crafted with us for the weekend. I had a great time showing everyone around and talking with you all. I was able to meet so many new people and got a chance to do a little crafting myself, too!

 

Here is our Saturday group.

 

We had several different groups all staying together over the weekend. It was so much fun to see all the different styles, paper and tool preferences and how much some of us pack for a day of scrapping. Being able to unload right into the craftroom was great.

 

 

Everyone was hard at work. They did stop to take a break and grab a snack or drink once in awhile though!

 

Here is our computer corner with all in one printer/scanner/photo printer.

 

Everyone was hard at work doing a variety of projects. Lots of scrapping, some beading and stamping too.

 

 

We also had some delicious meals and munchies.

 

 

 

Before everyone had to leave on Sunday we had our prize drawing. Congrats to Stephanie from Wausau for winning a free weekend stay!!

 

Here are some of the things people had to say after the weekend.
