Had the best time today! Our tour guides were great, I think their names were JP and Brandon. The entire staff was nice. The property is beautiful and there’s so much to do. We only did the two springs tour, but definitely plan to go back and stay on location at their accommodations. If you’re looking for something exciting a different to do go for it, you won’t regret it. It’s a workout, but worth every step.

Wonderful experience. We were on the FCA retreat. The staff was amazing, the activities unreal and the food was delicious. I gave a 2 for the room just because they are simple. You’re not coming for the room. You are coming to explore and be active. Tour guides were very engaged and fun. Can’t wait to go back and try a something new!

We went to Banning Mills to celebrate our 23rd anniversary. The room was rustic but wonderful. The service was absolutely top notch. And the activities that we participated in were very professionally run. Breakfast was also fabulous. It was too much food but who can complain about that? Absolutely delicious. We went in early November so we were also able to take in the fall foliage.

We went on the 2 hour horse ride. Lori was a great guide. My only complaint was my saddle wasn't for me. Other than that it was a great ride and affordable. The other activities seem over priced but horses were great. She is an outside vendor and banning doesn't own her horses or tack

My friend and I did a getaway to Banning Mills. We stayed in a treehouse that was very cool and also very clean. Our favorite part tho, was our all day zip line tour. We had 2 great young men as tour guides (Charlie and James) and we were so impressed by their humor and knowledge throughout our tour. We had a lot of fun interacting with them. They were professional, knowledgeable and very nice guides. We highly recommend them.
