Guest Testimonial
  • <div class="lw_blurbs_body"><p> “Staying at Lewis & Clark was a welcoming and joyful experience for our whole group! As the retreat organizer, I was grateful to work with a team who were both professional and joyful. My job was so much less stressful because the Lewis & Clark staff was so capable and willing to work with our specific requests. And the food was unmatched! It is not only fresh and tasty, it is also clear that it is made with love! Our group is hoping to stay at Lewis and Clark again next year.”</p></div>
  • <div class="lw_blurbs_body"><p> “Beautiful campus, great food, excellent customer service. I have planned events with a number of colleges in the past, and this was by far the best experience both in the planning and execution of our retreat. The retreat participants raved about the setting, services, and accommodations.”</p></div>
