Perfect reset weekend
My husband and I loved our weekend! It was a perfect reset for our body and mind. First off the bed was the best we have ever slept in. Our next favorite was the sauna and cold plung tub. The atmosphere was very clean, natural, calming and the staff were all very nice. We will be back for sure!

Don't trust the hype. You don't need it.
The retreat is orientated to a particular demographic of sophomoric tourist expecting to enjoy plenty of coffee books and nut snacks that decorate the interior. If you like spaces that encourage serendipitous praise to "the founder" like you've entered Plato's mediocre academy of virtue signaling, then I recommend Wild ... I have already forgotten the full name (the "w" has been found plastered on everything like Tesla). I can't be bothered to read anymore ads about this place or the unique philosophy of its owner. It's like any other traditional American faux Scandinavian resort, you sleep in separate RV trailers converted with a combination of industrial wood and Ikea furniture to create enough privacy where you can't usually hear your neighbor but will ultimately see their sneering face as they name drop their engineer friend's work location and how one night of yoga has transformed their essential whole. 2 nights stay seem like the usual. I needed 3 until I felt any sense of peace and that was off-site. What I did love was having access to salad and coffee two times daily. The kitchen and professional house keepers are serious reasons to consider staying. But if you're visiting the area without a planned program on-site, I can't recommend staying. It's a decent place to start your up north vacation but doesn't live up to the hype.
