Country Vacations & Resorts

I’ve never been fortunate enough to work at a corporation that holds “retreats” for employees, but I know plenty of businesses do. It must be difficult to find a vacation rental for a medium to large group of people with diverse interests. Planning large family vacations is hard enough!

Below are a few ideas for anyone looking for a vacation rental for corporate retreats, large family gatherings, or even a unique and private wedding venue.
