The Retreat at Balcones Springs, Marble Falls TX

We attended a work offsite at Balcones Spring the second week of December 2023. There were over 40+ of us and we stayed for 3 nights. The accommodations were awesome - cozy, clean, and cabin-themed. The grounds are impeccable and we all felt like we were at summer camp and kids again. There are so many fun things to do and the place was humming with holiday lights and cheer. The staff and the food were incredible. Many of my colleagues expressed wanting to return ourselves with our kids for more fun. I bet the summer is amazing there, and if my kids were younger, I would trust to send them there under the care of Christine, the owner, and her trusted and kind staff. Thank you for a great visit.

The Retreat at Balcones Springs is beautiful and the staff are terrific. This is a relaxing, lovely place to enjoy yourself and reconnect with friends and family. I highly recommend it!

I recently spent three days at the Retreat at Balcones Springs as a wedding guest. It was without question, one of the most unique and enjoyable weddings I have ever attended! The cabins are fantastic and unique. The facilities and grounds are beautiful, the food was fantastic, and best of all was the fabulous and attentive staff! I look forward to my next visit and only wish I could go back as a camper!

My daughter’s wedding was held at The Retreat on 11/18/23. The staff and venue were amazing. There are countless activities to keep guest involved and entertained. We could not have ask for better service from the staff. The accommodation are so cute and the beds were very comfortable. The venue is Texas Hill Country at its finest!

This past weekend we had our company retreat with close to 90 employees. There was so much to do and space to hold our activities, beautiful cabins, delicious food, comfortable beds.everything was wonderful about the venue and the staff. We worked closely with Maggie and Arely. They were so helpful and accommodating, always with a big smile on their sweet faces! We highly recommend the beautiful venue!

We hosted a corporate retreat here just this past weekend. While the well-tended grounds and amenities were stellar, it was the attentive and friendly staff that were the real rock stars. At every turn, they had suggestions, thoughtful touches, and ways to make every attendant feel special. Every one of my questions or issues were resolved right away. The food was incredible! I still have attendees raving about the snacks. People are calling this the best corporate retreat they've attended EVER. And I attribute most of that success to the venue itself. Thank you for everything!

We recently had a company retreat and it was awesome! Brought back childhood memories of being in camp and just really good environment for the whole company. The food was by far the best thing there, along with the service. For a company where we are constantly working hard, it was the perfect setting reflect on our company and look to the future. Great job to the team, and once my kids become of age to attend the camp, I will likely send reconnect to have them experience it. Awesome job Blacones Springs.

We hosted our company retreat with 34 employees and had a fantastic experience! The staff was very accommodating, friendly, and communicative. The grounds are beautiful, food delicious, and so much to do! We will be back next year!

I had the pleasure of photographing a wedding at The Retreat and stayed on the property with the guests and family. It was such a lovely time! The grounds are well taken care of and the staff was always welcoming and helpful. I had plenty of lovely nooks and crannies to make gorgeous photographs and despite the Texas heat and humidity, the Retreat made sure everyone was comfortable and most of all, made us feel special. Highly recommend this place for a wedding.

If you want a wedding venue that makes everyone leave feeling like they had the best time ever, The Retreat at Balcones Springs is it! Great food, staff, places to hang out with each other, and wonderful spaces for each part of the wedding weekend. From beginning to end, the staff worked with us to make it unforgettable. Thank you to Christine and Jennifer for all you do to make “The Retreat” such a special place to make a lifetime of memories!

My husband and I hosted our daughter's wedding at The Retreat. We wanted to have an environment where the families and friends could spend time together and make deeper connections than a typical wedding weekend allows. Most of our guests stayed in the charming and well-equipped cabins. We gathered each morning for coffee and hearty breakfasts. We played pickleball-grandmothers v.grandmothers was a highlight. We played kickball-bride v.groom where guests ranging from age 3 to age 83 could participate. Guests hiked, played ping pong, basketball, and volleyball. There was an impromptu canoe race where all participants ended up swimming ashore! When a mild cold front blew through the staff worked its magic (without a word from me or my husband). Building a fire in the grand dining hall fireplace, serving hot apple cider and hot chocolate (the kids had whipped cream and sprinklers added to their hot chocolate mugs!), baskets of shawls and throws appeared for the guests, and gas heaters were rolled out. Each guest was made to feel at home. There are a lot of beautiful venues in the world, but The Retreat is magical! The staff is wonderful! And, the food is delicious! We don't have another daughter, but if we did we'd be back at The Retreat for the wedding. We'd like to thank the entire staff at The Retreat. We loved working with all of you. We'd also like recognize Jennifer Baldwin, the wedding coordinator at The Retreat, for helping us smoothly navigate the planning process and for keeping us sane during the actual wedding weekend. There were no glitches! Not even small ones! Finally, we'd also especially like thank Christine Baskin, the owner of The Retreat, for, well, everything. Her hand can be felt in every detail from the wild flower bouquets in the cabins, to the Texas butter bars served at lunch, to the calabacitas appetizers served at the rehearsal dinner, to the Mission Impossible glow sticks tossed to the guests on the dance floor. Christine is a gifted hostess who cares about her guests. We will remember the feeling of the weekend forever.

I recently spent a weekend at The Retreat at Balcones Springs for a wedding. I was very impressed by everything! The grounds were so nice and the staff was amazing! We had so much fun at the wedding and the food was incredibly delicious. I highly recommend this venue for anyone who wants to have a beautiful wedding at a place that is loved by all your guests!

Could not have had a more positive experience watching my brother get married here. We stayed for 3 nights, the staff was excellent, the food was good, and the memories will be forever! I hope we have a reason to come back one day.

We had the most wonderful weekend at The Retreat for my niece’s wedding! The grounds were beautiful, the staff kind and attentive, the food delicious, and the details of the weekend thoughtful. This is a very special place!

My employer had a company offsite for 70+ people at Balcones Springs and we had a fabulous time! The staff was kind, very accommodating with our requests, the grounds were well kept, rooms were clean and comfortable, and food was great! We had a great experience and would love to come back sometime!
