Our camp neighbors warned us the portable toilet was in an awful state, and to go to the other campground close by. At least one of the sinks at the location didn't work, but there was soap and no hand sanitizer. In the evening it was somewhat noisy off the lake and if memory serves, things with the humans settled down around midnight. Short jaunt to the lakeshore, there was plenty of trash near the woodsy side not so much near the lake itself. I didn't have the opportunity to explore any trails that could be there, so here's hoping next time I'm here, I will.

First time hiking here but have been here once before. Trails weren't marked the best but if you…read morewalk for a while you'll run into one of four trails to get you crack on track. Some steep areas that get you down to some beautiful views of the lake. Very large lake with several ways to enter and areas to hike from. It's not Red Rock or Black Mountain in Vegas but enjoyed the outdoor time in a KS winter.

My daughter and nephew had a great lesson with Sarah. She did a great job teaching them how to…read moregroom the horses, how to talk to them, how to walk around them safely, all the directions for riding and answered questions from inquiring minds. By the end of the lesson they were trotting around the arena with her! Nice facility, tons of horses and great people!

I don't know who in their right mind would review this facility as a decent boarding barn. My horse…read morealmost died of starvation there, the pasture is horrible and the horses continually suffer from thrush and virus. It is unfortunate because the instructor is very good. We left before my horse died. None of the show horses or stall board horses were turned out the entire winter. The main trainer uses unethical training practices on Saddlebreds.

This is a nice little lake just outside of Paola. I would probably call it more of a recreational…read morelake because of the lack of trees and a lot of large open areas. There is a boat dock, a swimming area, camping sites, shelters, and playgrounds. Fishing is allowed and based on some of the splashes I heard as I waited for fireworks, there appears to be some decent fish in the lake. Lake Miola is also the location of the annual 4th of July fireworks show for the city. The city puts on a decent display with both air and ground fireworks although it could improve by shooting the fireworks in a larger area instead of all at the same location (various heights) in the sky. Also this is more a Paola thing, or honestly a thing you encounter everywhere, but last nights experience was impacted by a jerk officer. Now before I become the top candidate on a list to pull over for no reasons, I am a huge supporter of our police forces. They do a job that many would not do and should be respected. There are bad ones, but the majority are the type of heroes our children should look up to! With that being said, just because you have an attitude or John Wayne syndrome or what ever, don't be a killjoy. One officer was harassing people about where they were parking, even though there were not any no parking signs and other officers were allowing people to park in these areas.

And they just got done doing maintenance on the play area to keep it safe and playable for the kiddos. The walking trails here are really nice. We walk here frequently. It is very quiet on the trails because it is far away from the baseball diamonds and butts up against farmland on the backside. It's a fun place for the family!!

First off, Chuck the owner has been in the business of training people & horses for so long that his knowledge is endless. He is also very patient and thoughtful. Libby the trainer is so awesome! She has been amazing with my daughter. I always feel like she has safe and she loves the horses there. We plan to do her birthday party there as well. If you are considering trusting your children in their hands, do it! They truly are awesome!!

Libby is patient and fun but she takes the lessons seriously and does not let me slack even for a moment! She provides constant instruction and feedback so that I improve with every visit. I am a 30 yr old returning rider who had a bad riding accident. Libby had such a great approach of keeping my lessons interesting and challenging but moving forward at a pace I felt comfortable with. They have lots of awesome horses for riders with different levels of experience. I got my lessons at a steal through Groupon but I would pay full price to keep coming here. The drive out is serene and the location is peaceful. Love this place!

She had fun on the climbing and playground equipment for about 20 minutes before getting bored with the lack of choices. Next to the playground is a sand volleyball pit, which she was able to play in for a few minutes and across the street is a field, which provided her with the most enjoyment running after birds and butterflies.

What a great retreat. I was apprehensive about attending Timber Creeks weekend retreat, I just did…read morenot know what to expect, especially going by myself. I almost cancelled a few times but at the last minute I decided to take the leap, I am so happy I did. I felt pampered all weekend. I was able to fully disconnect (or not). The entire property is beautifully done, the rooms, the public areas, the landscaping, trails etc. Everything was pristine and well maintained. My room was large but cozy and relaxing, the bed was comfortable with soft sheets, blankets, and pillows. I was given one of the king rooms with two chairs and a private bathroom, it was beautiful. Windows everywhere, I felt like I was staying in a treehouse. From what I could tell, all the rooms were designed to have a great view of nature. The public areas are wonderful for reading, bird/animal watching, journaling and more. I could always find a place to chill on my own or find a place with the group. The trails and outdoor spaces are maintained very well. The trail provided short and longer trails both trails were easy, peaceful and quiet. Chef Heather made amazing meals. Everything was healthy and delicious and was clearly made with care. The staff helping with the meals were sweet and accommodating. The flow was wonderful. Tom and Beth are the sweetest couple and went out of their way to make everyone feel welcomed. They made conversations easy and were respectful when individuals needed time alone. They are a perfect couple to run the retreat. The guided meditations were great, they were not long, less than 15 minutes. They include stories, quotes, music and more. Anyone can do this, even if you have never meditated before. Get the massage and the spiritual mentoring. The massage was great and the mentoring gave me some ah-ha moments. Loved both. Yoga was enjoyable and no, you do not need to be a die hard yogi to do the class. Every level can do the poses. Recommendation: Just book it and go, you will not regret it. I will be back
