There are some places you visit that instantly feel different the moment you arrive. Not because of flashy amenities or over-the-top attractions, but because of the people behind them and the care they pour into every detail. That’s exactly how we felt during our stay at Growing Faith Farm & Retreat.

Nestled against a breathtaking mountain backdrop, this peaceful retreat offers so much more than just a place to stay. From the very beginning, Tina and Joe made us feel less like guests and more like family. Their hospitality is woven into every part of the experience — from personally walking us to our glamping tent to the thoughtful welcoming notes waiting for us upon arrival.

As avid campers who usually travel with our pop-up camper, we weren’t entirely sure what to expect from glamping. We packed carefully, trying to think through what we might need for the weekend. The reality? We hardly needed to bring anything at all. Everything had already been thoughtfully prepared for us.

Glamping Without the Stress

The glamping tents at Growing Faith Farm are beautifully decorated, cozy, and full of charm while still giving you that peaceful connection to the outdoors. Waking up to mountain views while enjoying the comforts of home felt like the perfect balance between adventure and relaxation.

One of the standout features for us was the outdoor kitchen setup. Not only was it stocked with all the essentials, but it also included so many little details and conveniences you don’t even think about until you realize they’re already there waiting for you. It’s clear that Tina and Joe have spent time thinking through the guest experience from every angle.

For families who love being outdoors but may feel intimidated by traditional camping, this is such a wonderful introduction to spending time in nature without sacrificing comfort.

A Property Designed for Connection and Adventure

Beyond the glamping tents themselves, the property is absolutely beautiful. Everywhere you turn there’s another stunning mountain view, peaceful open space, or thoughtful feature designed to help guests slow down and reconnect.

We especially loved:

• The easy trail leading to the top of the mountain
• The clean and welcoming shower house
• The adorable farm animals
• The ample space for kids to explore and families to gather
• The peaceful atmosphere perfect for campfires, stargazing, and slowing down

Later in the season, the flower field will add even more beauty to the experience, making it an incredible destination for photographers, families, and nature lovers alike.

The property also includes a stage and covered seating area that would be perfect for community gatherings, retreats, workshops, weddings, homeschool meetups, or outdoor events. As Trail Mommas, we could instantly picture the possibilities for future community campouts and nature-based gatherings here.

More Than a Getaway

What makes Growing Faith Farm & Retreat so special isn’t just the beautiful scenery or thoughtfully designed accommodations — it’s the heart behind it all. Tina and Joe have created a space where people can unplug, breathe deeply, spend time outdoors, and truly feel welcomed.

In a world that often feels rushed and disconnected, places like this matter.

Whether you’re an experienced camper, a family looking to dip your toes into outdoor adventures, or someone simply craving a peaceful mountain escape, Growing Faith Farm & Retreat offers an experience that leaves you feeling refreshed, cared for, and inspired to slow down and reconnect with nature.

We’re already looking forward to our next visit and our Trail Mommas collaboration where we can support an amazing small business and grow together.
