Thismis the 4th year in a row I have taken my 2 daughters to Earthshine Lodge for Zip Lining. We always have a great time and our guides are very knowledgable, safety minded and have a great sense of humor. They make sure everyone has fun and feels safe!

Came here with three schoolage boys - and the place and its workings are fabulous. Great activities for children - zipline, ropes, climbing wall, nature and creek exploration,.... Amazingly knowledgeable staff and tremendously helpful and engaging for the younger folks (pretty good for us older folk too). Lodge sits in lovely spot; interesting wood details abound.

Agreed, this is not a luxury hotel, it is indeed a rustic lodge, in the midst of some of the most beautiful scenery you will ever see, with staff who become friends, delicious food (always... More

But we had a wonderful time. The lodge is absolutely beautiful and rustic. The surrounding land and views are spectacular. The employees at the... More

We have been to 5 star hotels, to Resorts and to Earthshine. Earthshine was by far the favorite of all !! It... More

We have been to Earthshine 3 times! And since we did disney this past spring my kids (ages 7 and 11) had something to compare and EARTHSHINE was the hands down favorite vacation.
