“Paul, Victor and everyone who makes this place tick,

Thank you for sharing this magical place with us and our writers this weekend. We all filled our cups to the brim with silence and stars and food and nature and all the good things of life. We LOVE this land and this building, and deeply appreciate how much care and work went and go into every detail.

‘Til the fall!”

Chris and Kim

“Our group has been coming to the Sumac Centre since 2012.  Returning to the same place year after year is its own recommendation.  At the end of each retreat our group does an inventory of what we have enjoyed at Sumac.  In summary there are four reasons that come up every year:

1. The rooms are clean and comfortable.  Not just the bedrooms, but all the rooms: meeting rooms, study rooms, TV rooms and kitchen are up-to-date, accessible and well maintained.

2. The staff at Sumac are extremely helpful and accommodating.  Paul and Victor go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. 

3. The property is beautiful.  If you are a walker/hiker there are several trails to explore – each with its own character and scenery - lookouts, heavy woods, open meadows, creeks and a waterfall.

4.  The Food!”

“I have enjoyed every one of the five weekends that I have spent at the Sumac Centre. In all seasons it is wonderful to experience the feeling of being in a remote natural environment while staying in a comfortable lodge. Extensive trails take you even closer to nature. The food is always great and suitable for my restricted diet. I highly recommend the Sumac Centre for your next retreat.”

“Dear Paul, Victor and Naomi,

Thank you for providing such amazing support for all of us attending The Igniting Sisterhood retreat. This allowed us to do deep work. Paul, you really went above and beyond in clearing the snow off of my friend’s car.”

“Dear Paul,

My time at Sumac Centre was so uplifting. I enjoyed our conversations and the peace that I felt being on the land. Again, your generosity was so much appreciated.”
