I had the pleasure of attending a Heart Harmony event here, and it was incredible. When I arrived, I could feel the spirits of the land welcoming me. The main event space feels grounding and expansive.
I look forward to attending (and possibly hosting!) events and retreats here in the future, so that I can experience all the yumminess that Golden Pine has to offer!

This 25 acre property is such a magical place and surrounded by abundant and peaceful views and sounds of nature. There are fragrant pine trees and towering majestic maple trees and gorgeous sunrises in the morning. The events venue area has spacious bedrooms and immaculate bathrooms with a fully equipped kitchen. The wrap around porches are perfect for relaxing and soaking in the forest views and having a cup tea or coffee in the morning. There are multiple fire pit areas outside for enjoying the beautiful clear starry night sky as well. Their also hammocks sprinkled throughout the property for more relaxing in nature. Highly recommend if you’re looking to host for your next big event!

Golden Pine was exactly what I needed for a weekend getaway. The property is beautiful, tucked away among tall pine trees that make you feel like you're in your own private forest. Our room was clean and comfortable, with everything I needed.
What really made the stay special was the peaceful atmosphere and Schmuly, the owner, who went above and beyond to make sure I had a great experience. The stars at night were incredible - you don't get views like that in the city!
Perfect spot if you're looking to unwind and reconnect with nature.

An amazing place with a great atmosphere in the pines of bus drop. The facility itself got so many great rooms. Great atmosphere and the outdoors is just beautiful and also the host. I really like the guy. I really was there for everything we needed. It's a good place to run a workshop. That's what we did and probably it's also a good place for a big hangout for a big family

Just got back from an awesome retreat in Smithville, where we threw a bash for my sister's 25th birthday. The place was a perfect fit for our crowd of 50, all comfortably fitting among the peaceful pines.
The owner was great. He allowed us to set tents outside for an added camping vibe. What a blast it was! Sleeping under those clear skies with just the sound of the wind in the pines, I couldn't have asked for more.
The retreat itself was top-notch – clean, comfy, and loaded with everything we needed. All in all, Golden Pine turned out to be a fantastic choice for our get-together. Would definitely recommend.

What a beautiful place for retreats and meetings!
