Family Reunions: Where Grandparents Relax and Kids Run Wild

Grandparents get a real bed. Littles playing in the tunnels. Cousins scrimmaging in the field. Uncles showing off their ping pong skills. And no one can find mom, because she and your aunts are out hiking in the woods.

The Family Reunion Everyone Will Love

Playrooms and acres keep the kids happy. Living rooms and a big kitchen keep everyone close.

Who Knew a Family Reunion could be so Affordable?

When the property includes all of the fun, you may find the kids don't want to leave. Groups of 25 can run as little as $36 per head per day. See our rates page for details.

Where Families Go To Play

Family Reunions require spaces to be together and room to run free. The Blue Mountain Retreat has everything you need. Gather in our great room, play hide-and-seek in the play rooms, play soccer in the field or hike the ravine. So much to do on the property. And you're surrounded by amazing parks and beaches.

Guest Reviews

“Blue Mountain Retreat is truly a special place for our family. The kids always have a great time, and we love watching them truly be able to run free and just be kids! The block room, the LEGO room, the labyrinth, the zip line. You couldn’t run out of things to do here if you tried!”

“Amazing rental house. Has been perfect for our family reunion. Tons of space, plenty of beds, lots of amenities for adults and kids alike. Between the three playrooms and the secret passageways and slides between them, we hardly saw the kids at all!”

“Our reunion for 22 family members (from 4 months to 70) was perfect at Blue Mountain Retreat. The house is above well appointed. With lots of little extras we did not need to go out and buy (spices, plastic wraps, aluminum foil, pantry food items, games, puzzles, a great well tuned piano, etc). The large 3 car garage acts as a play room with pickle ball, basketball, scooters, bike etc. We didn't see the kids for 2 days because they wouldn't leave the foam block room and they loved the secret passageways and slides from one floor to the other.”

“Great retreat place if you have kids. There's a lot for them to do. Foosball table, Lego room, room full of blocks, garage made into a nice rink for them to play in and of course there's a secret slide to the garage from the house. Amenities are nice and has a fire pit outside along with a grill out in the patio. Has around 7 rooms but can easily hold over 20 people!”
