Some days ask for all of us. The June journal holds a different kind of day: one shaped by being together, with room to notice what matters. These guests left their own words for the moments they wanted to keep.

Time set aside for two

A shared stretch of time can feel especially meaningful when the rest of life has been full. These guests wrote about what it meant to have the days to themselves.

We raised many kids and had numerous pets. So to have a few days for just us was special. — A guest, guest journal, June 2026

This was exactly the right place for us to spend time together enjoying the trails and beautiful views. — Doug & Jacqueline Cranston, R.I, guest journal, June 2026

A celebration in their own way

The journal’s celebrations are personal: a graduation, a birthday, a honeymoon, an anniversary. The guests describe the feeling in their own terms.

A view worth lingering over

Sometimes a place stays with you through a single impression. One guest’s favorite part was the view; another remembered the quiet after a hike.

Our favorite part of the whole trip was the views, we could not get enough! — Meg & Chris, guest journal, June 2026

We hiked at Tannery Falls and enjoyed the hot tub afterwards — A guest, guest journal, June 2026

The wish to return

A few guests closed their entries by looking ahead. Their words leave the journal open to another visit, in another season or for another reason.

We can’t wait to come back to see the mountains in fall & winter. — Kaitlyn & Charlie, guest journal, June 2026

We will be back… often. — Bill, guest journal, June 2026
