We wanted to experience Yosemite, not just see it. We wanted to know about the park’s history,  flora , fauna, geology and to experience it without fighting for a parking space. . . our expectations were met and we thank you.   – Road Scholar Participant,  Seasons of Magic in Yosemite

Program was excellent. . . The food was just outstanding. Such a surprise! Homemade bread and desserts, beautifully cooked vegetables and excellent main courses greeted us each night. – Road Scholar Participant, Seasons of Magic in Yosemite

I love everything about ECCO, from the clear air to the delicious meals to the comfortable, clean rooms. I come up at least twice a year (for scrapbooking retreats), and sometimes to fly fish, too. It truly is a place to refresh your mind and your spirit. – Fawn

Our time at ECCO has been wonderful. The setting is beautiful and peaceful. It is the perfect place for getting alone with God. The site’s facilities have met all our needs. There are plenty of areas in which we were able to gather and socialize together, both inside and outside. All of this would have meant little if we had not had such a warm and welcoming staff serving us. The ECCO staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating. They met our every want and need, always seeking ways to make our stay a perfect one, from the delicious meals they served us, to the bonfire they built for us and to roasting sticks they provided for our marshmallows. Our ladies expressed their pleasure and gratitude as they thanked the leadership team who planned the retreat for choosing ECCO as the retreat site. We have been blessed in this beautiful haven that has been set aside for God and those who come to worship Him. – Visalia United Methodist Church Women’s Ministry
