With a passion for personal development, she envisions The Trail Retreat as a place where people can slow down, reflect, and move forward with clarity and purpose.
Ryan & Bethany have three boys - Micah (10), Nathanael (7), and Noah (3), whose favorite outdoor activities include biking, exploring the woods, finding cool sticks, and climbing trees.
The Story Behind the Trail Retreat
The Trail Retreat was born from a deep-rooted connection to nature and a desire to help others rediscover its restorative power. Growing up surrounded by woods, we both spent our childhoods immersed in the outdoors — helping with the family farm, picking blueberries, biking country roads, and building forts. As life became busier with career and family, we’ve found it to be harder to step away from the demands of everyday life and reconnect with nature.
The growing need for a space to disconnect from technology, encourage nature exploration, and restore balance inspired us to launch The Trail Retreat, a series of nature-based retreats encouraging movement, connection, and wellness.
With a passion for personal growth and wellness, we aim to cultivate an environment where guests can immerse themselves in nature while also engaging in opportunities for reflection and transformation. Whether through outdoor adventures or small-group coaching retreats, The Trail Retreat offers a place to reconnect with nature—and with yourself.
