IMPORTANT DETAILS

 

Day-Use Groups (Single-Day Visits)
For groups visiting for one day, we can provide a meal served in a self-service buffet format. A staff member will handle buffet setup and teardown so your group can focus on the experience.

 

Overnight Groups
For groups staying overnight, meals are self-serve and self-prepared. Prior to your visit, we stock the kitchen based on dietary preferences and restrictions provided in your group’s forms (due two weeks before arrival).

 

  • Breakfast: Ingredients are available in the fully stocked kitchen

 

  • Lunch & Dinner: We provide curated ingredient baskets with simple preparation instructions—similar to a HelloFresh-style kit. Meals are designed to take no more than 30-40 minutes to prepare and often become a meaningful opportunity for group connection and team building.

 

Because there is no staff onsite during overnight stays, this approach ensures your group has everything needed to enjoy fresh, satisfying meals together.

 

Overnight groups are expected to leave the house in the same condition as upon arrival, including cleaning dishes and the kitchen.
