Andersons Eco Retreat is a private sanctuary—just you, your companion, and 125 acres of landscaped beauty. No other guests. No interruptions. Just the luxury of space, nature, and time to reconnect. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s a place to feel inspired, to slow down, and to create memories that linger long after you leave. Most retreats like this are reserved for the ultra-wealthy.

“What an amazing place, breathe taking! We were so impressed, and blessed to have such a beautiful stay. It was exactly what we wanted: nature, relaxation & peace. Kim does an amazing job with the decor, and the brownies to die for. The bath, my lord, so fantastic. We didn’t need for a thing, we can’t recommend this highly enough — everyone should have a stay!”
