Wellness Getaway – Reclaiming Joy in Nature

DETAILS
Reclaiming Joy in Nature
March 5–7, 2027
Bring a friend. Laugh often. Reclaim the joy that life sometimes asks us to set aside.
When was the last time you felt completely alive?
Not because you accomplished something.
Not because you checked another box.
Not because anyone expected anything from you.
Just because your heart felt light.
Reclaiming Joy in Nature is a weekend designed to remind us that wellness isn’t only found in stillness—it also lives in laughter, adventure, friendship, wonder, and moments that help us feel fully alive again.
So grab your favourite friend and join us for a mountain getaway where the only expectation is to simply enjoy the experience.
A Weekend with Purpose
Somewhere along the way, many of us misplaced joy.
Life became schedules, responsibilities, work, and caring for everyone else.
This gathering is an invitation to reconnect with something we’ve always needed.
Joy.
Wonder.
Laughter.
Adventure.
Because joy isn’t something we earn.
It’s something we were created to experience.
Your Mountain Home
Spend the weekend at Nature’s Getaway, where cozy accommodations, mountain views, crackling fires, outdoor hot tubs, and warm hospitality create the perfect home base for a weekend of connection and renewal.
Everything is thoughtfully prepared so you can simply arrive, relax, and enjoy being together.
The Nordegg Amazing Race
The highlight of the weekend is our own Nordegg Amazing Race.
Together with your teammate, you’ll explore Nordegg through a series of creative challenges, hidden clues, unexpected adventures, and memorable experiences that celebrate everything we love about this incredible mountain community.
It’s not about winning.
It’s about connection.
Curiosity.
Teamwork.
Shared laughter.
And creating stories you’ll still be telling long after the weekend ends.
Expect plenty of surprises along the way.
Good Food. Great Company.
No memorable weekend is complete without great food.
Throughout the weekend you’ll enjoy delicious home-cooked meals, fresh coffee, homemade baking, and plenty of opportunities to gather around the table.
And yes—there will be homemade pie from Miners’ Cafe.
Because every great mountain gathering deserves pie.
Time to Simply Be
While the weekend offers plenty of opportunities for adventure, there’s also space to simply breathe.
Soak beneath the stars in the hot tubs.
Share stories around the fire.
Take a quiet walk through the forest.
Or enjoy an unhurried morning with coffee and mountain views.
Joy grows when we make space for both adventure and rest.
Hosted with Heart
Your hosts, Lucinda Watkins and Tanya Koshowski, believe some of life’s most meaningful moments happen when people feel welcomed, cared for, and free to simply be themselves.
This weekend has been intentionally designed to create opportunities for genuine connection, laughter, reflection, and shared experiences that fill us up long after we return home.
You’ll Leave With…
A full camera roll.
A lighter heart.
New inside jokes.
Fresh mountain air in your lungs.
And perhaps most importantly…
The reminder that joy has never left you.
Sometimes it simply needs a little space to be reclaimed.
We can’t wait to welcome you to the mountains.
