What an amazing experience! I learned more about fiber processing than I expected. The time in the fiber mill was priceless. Chris's excitement and enthusiasm was infectious and you could tell fiber is her passion. The accommodations and meals were great! All of the staff were very welcoming and helpful. I feel lucky that this place is less than 2 hours from me. I hope to be back for a meal, shopping, or another retreat!

This was another FANTASTIC weekend at Nome Schoolhouse as our annual FCS retreat. Blessed to have this opportunity in our rural state. Chris is a phenomenal host and a 'Jack of all Trades,' ALWAYS willing to go above and beyond to make the customer feel at home. A relaxing weekend of fun, food, and friends!! :)

BEAUTIFUL setting. The perfect place for a quiet retreat or small wedding, family reunion, etc. The old schoolhouse has been restored so incredibly well. Definitely a one of a kind place! The food is AMAZING and service can't be beat. I have visited three years in a row and they just keep getting better! Definitely recommend going out of your way to see this place!
