Happily Hitched
Couples Retreat

That's right. Valentine's weekend!!
Anyone who says marriage is never-ending bliss is lying.
A fulfilling marriage takes effort, compromise, and intentional action. With a perfect mix of fun adventures, amazing food, interactive workshops and a focus on strengthening relationships, this will be a weekend to remember! Come with an open mind and the goal of meaningful connection and we will take care of the rest.
Be Still
for faithful women seeking respite and restoration
October 10-12, 2024 in Rush Valley, Utah
Do you feeling like you're constantly juggling?
Are you overwhelmed by the needs of your family?
Is the balance of your physical and mental health becoming a burden?
Join our team! Mentor April James and Coach Heather Kennedy will link arms with you beginning with an unforgettable weekend that will give you resources, connection, and inspiration. You'll receive individual and continued guidance post-retreat to help you tackle life with more faith and less fear. This retreat is jam packed with activities aimed at helping you find peace amid the chaos, and more strength in adversity.
You'll return home restored (and with an epic story or two.)
What will you experience at Restore Retreats?
Community
Life is hard, but it's better when you're surrounded by the right people. Those who attend "Restore" are ready to cheer each other on, encourage growth, and laugh together. We leave our masks at home and come as we are: imperfect, honest and eager to make the most out of life with a bit of grit, tenacity, and many tempting treats!
Fun and Adventure
What's a getaway without some adventure? When you're with us, your only task is to have more fun than you planned on! With choices including ATV rides, skeet shooting, hiking, horse-back riding, biking, tons of indoor games, cold plunges and soaking in a hot tub, we've got options for everyone. Yes, even you!
Practical Tools
Inspiring workshops and conversations are powerful, but without practical ways to implement change, they can also be fleeting. We thrive on giving you results-focused frameworks that will give you the momentum and support you need to create real change in your life. You set the goal, we help you take the steps - even beyond the retreat.
Where will the next Restore retreat be held?
Royal Creek Ranches is located 45 minutes southwest of Salt Lake City, Utah. Standing on over 1,100 acres in the Stansbury Mountains, you will feel like you are worlds away from the stresses and influences of daily life. You'll enjoy fresh mountain air, star filled skies at night and picturesque views in the daylight. In every direction, you will be surrounded with beauty that brings peace and invites adventure.
You'll love the culinary staff! They'll pamper you with exquisite food options to cater to all preferences/diets.
Although nestled in rustic territory, your accommodations will be laced with luxury and comfort. We offer options for a private room, shared room, or group rate rooms, giving you sleeping options to fit your comfort level.
