A Letter from Your Hosts
Dear Nature Lovers,
The Retreat at Sky Ridge is the result of our many years in hospitality and facilities management and the opportunity to accomplish goals of personal importance to us: fostering nature and wildlife preservation, encouraging a sense of wonder and appreciation for the beauty of our natural environment.
The Retreat at Sky Ridge is a fun, laid back resort designed so you can relax, reconnect, and revitalize. Our primary goal is to ensure that you have an enjoyable and unique time away from home. We're happy to arrange special activities to highlight your stay, whether that's an in-cabin massage for two, pre-stocking your cabin prior to arrival, arranging a fishing or canoe trip, or simply making sure you are left alone to reconnect with a loved one.
We look forward to showing you the natural wonder of the Ozarks with a great stay at the Retreat at Sky Ridge.
Sincerely,
Eric & Cindy Studer and Shannon Magee
