The Ultimate Couples Wilderness Retreat

"Meraki Escape is the perfect place to unplug and recharge with the one you love! My husband brought me here to celebrate my 40th birthday, just the two of us. Our life is so fast paced with our precious kids, jobs, household chores, extended family commitments…etc. It felt like stepping into a whole new world that was made for just the two of us! I am also very contentious of traveling due to germ issues. This BY FAR is the cleanest place we have ever stayed and I CAN NOT wait to come back! The owner Mrs. Dana thought of absolutely everything you could possibly need when visiting! I’d give it 10 stars if I could!"

"Five stars is not enough. It's more like 6+. Even at first glance you can plainly see the gorgeous amenities that Meraki has to offer but the real magic is in the seat so you could have never imagined. We stayed in Yukio over the tail end of September and it was a level of fabulousness beyond what I had in mind. We made full use of the kitchen, massive shower, fireplace and hot tub. In hindsight I probably should have rented a dog to bring with us because this place is so pet friendly. Dana was such a fantastic host. Not only did she get our lovely couples massages booked but she also coordinated our cocktail foraging and yoga at the waterfall. She even got our guided fly fishing trip up to a Cherokee set up! To top it all off she got us a mountain trout since we didn't end up catching anything. We used the leftover herbs from cocktail foraging on the fish for the BBQ grill and it was just beautiful! Unforgettable couples trip!"

"We LOVED Meraki! It’s just what we needed to celebrate our 30th anniversary. We had lovely roses and chocolates upon arrival. The couples massage was amazing-thank you Dana and Kyla! Chef Amber topped off our day with a delicious meal-thank you so much! We loved Meraki so much that we stayed an extra day. Our next stay is almost booked!"

From the minute we opened the door to our cabin we felt so welcome and at home. All the heart felt personal detail that were throughout the cabin for our elopement were amazing. Our elopement was right on the property and it made it so relaxing and abled us to focus on each other. I could not have asked for any better. This was the most beautiful, intimate wedding and cabin stay. We add a few extras to our stay. A amazing in cabin massage, breakfast cook in cabin, both were hands down perfect. And of corse the elopement package was absolutely incredible. Bonus : we were even able to bring our little fur baby. And the welcome touches for her were just an amazing.

"If you are looking for a romantic getaway to reconnect this beautiful and peaceful place is where you need to go. The owners did not miss a thing when it comes to these cabins and the attention to detail. There were so many extras they provided to list. Thank you Dana & David for sharing your paradise with us!

"We did the weekend wellness couple’s retreat package and every detail was so well thought out and planned. The activities included private yoga, massages, sauna and cold plunge, private chef, and so many other options to choose from. We were welcomed with a beautiful charcuterie board, chocolate covered strawberries, and Champagne. The views on the property are gorgeous. You feel so secluded and peaceful while being wrapped in nature. The cabin had everything we could have ever needed and then some. Dana has really thought of everything! Having private chefs was a wonderful way to relax, and feel completely spoiled. Every meal was delicious and we couldn’t say enough good things about our chefs. The staff were all so kind and accommodating. We were even lucky to get snowed in, and it just added to the magic of the weekend. We can’t wait to come back and experience the Meraki Escape when the mountains are in full bloom! Our retreat was everything we needed to disconnect, recharge, and reconnect with each other. This was the best weekend getaway we have done by far! Jenessa “Ness” Evans | Google

"We absolutely did not want to leave. Our stay at Meraki Escape was perfect from the day of booking all the way through our departure. Dana & David made sure to make us feel welcome and comfortable. It was very clean, smelled wonderful, and had everything you could ever need for a luxury vacation. It was such a romantic & cozy vibe. We look forward to visiting again soon!"

"Omg! Meraki Escape is truly what it says it is - the ultimate couples escape. From the incredibly well-stocked cabin, the arrival charcuterie board and all the special touches, to the curated menu including yoga, massages and other bespoke activities, and the private Chef (Natty was incredible!), this was the most relaxing and thoughtful way to spend my birthday ever… Dana and David make it so special! We will be back!"
