This beautiful 100+ acre farm is where Bill & Cyndi spend most weekends, keeping up the property while continuing to work in Lancaster during the week and staying involved in the lives of their 3 grown, married children and 3 grandsons. Bill & Cyndi have transformed this once very plain Amish home atop a ridge into a tranquil setting for all who visit. They worked hard for many years renovating the house, which serves as their home and the retreat center. Although the home maintains it's simple nature, it has been updated and decorated to provide comfortable sleeping arrangements. The later addition of a conference room provides a perfect training area for visiting couples.
However, the home does have it's limitations. No guest room has a private bath so please be prepared to share. With only 2 bathrooms currently available for guests (one on the 2nd floor with the bedrooms and one on the main floor), please be patient as you may have to wait your turn for the facilities. Your understanding is appreciated as morning and evening rotations will be necessary for the shared spaces for showering/bathing.

Each room has its own distinct feel with unique furnishings that are hand painted and distressed, and Cyndi has enjoyed decorating each room with its own farm animal theme. Most rooms have queen-sized beds, with two rooms having double-sized beds due to the smaller space in the room. We hope you will enjoy the special touches in each room, whether you're in the largest room themed with horses, or our smallest room that features a sweet donkey print affectionately named Jocelyn.
Improvements will continue over time as Bill & Cyndi still have many ideas for the outdoor areas that have not yet come to fruition. We hope you will come back in the future to see the changes that will continue to add to the experience when you visit The Ridge.
