Maaaan! Where to begin?… Well my wife and I stayed at Banning Mills for a weekend that we will never forget From the moment we checked in Amber at the front desk was so hospitable and informative! Precise directions and instructions with friendly service 🤝🏼🛎! When we got to our Tree House Room, #52 to be exact it was all we had hoped for and more! The gas log fireplace 🔥, the super comfy King Size bed 😴, the Jetted two person tub ❤️‍🔥 and the amazing view and ambiance from our balcony overlooking snake creek… It was all just like a fairy tale and escape from the business of work, kids, animals and stress at home. We reconnected in so many ways, focused on each other & grew stronger together 💞👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨! The whole trip was so much fun, so romantic and absolutely unforgettable!
The Zip-lining was absolutely thrilling and so much fun 🤩! Something we will definitely be back for! Thomas and Cole were the best guides you could ever ask for!

Amazing… Wonderful… and so much FUN! Not only were the staff very kind and extremely helpful, food was tasty, the cabins and treehouses were so much fun to stay at! Speaking of fun – whether enjoying the MANY free activities (e.g. catch and release fishing, hiking, and more!) or the extremely fun zip lines, ATV tours, and ropes courses (I did them all!!!), you are bound to find something you, your family/kids, and your colleagues will all enjoy – Michael Chatman

We just got back from an amazing anniversary weekend at Banning Mills. We wanted to get away for a weekend but not have to drive super far and are glad we picked this place. We stayed in a tree house with the creek view which was super cozy. We played mini golf, hit the trails and of course went zip lining!!! We did levels 1-3 then added on the ridge runner which was spectacular. The gourmet dinner was amazing and the whole weekend they were accommodating of me being a vegetarian. We will be back for more adventures and highly recommend. – Katie Medina
