We had a family reunion here and it suited all our needs. Beautiful setting close to Sun Peaks. Hillary is an excellent hostess. The commercial kitchen made it easy to make large meals and clean up after. Cabins are comfy and roomy. More...

We booked Epona Rise for our non-traditional "festival wedding" and couldn't have asked for a better location or team to help us out. Hilary, Cate, Jenny and team were helpful from booking, right through to our last day - always offering a helping hand and advice. We had 45 guests so split them up between the on-site cabins and hired luxury Yurts from Wild Havens (who came onsite to set them up). Everyone was comfortable and relaxed all weekend and had a wonderful three days celebrating in a beautiful setting. Highly recommend for any gatherings of friends or family - Epona Rise has everything you need. More...

We chose Epona for our son's July wedding and it was perfect. Having accommodations for out of town guests in the beautifully appointed cabins plus the ability to camp onsite made it conveninet for family and friends to gather together. The lodge is very comfortable, well equipped kitchen and a great gathering place for guests. The surrounding mountains and pastures made an ideal setting for an outdoor wedding ceremony with plenty of room for outdoor games. The patio area was large enough to hold 3 tents and seat 80 guests. Hillary and Cate were very helpful and always responded quickly to our requests and questions. A big thank you to the Epona staff who were available to make sure everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend this facility for weddings, retreats or for a family reunion . More...

We booked Epona Rise as a weekend getaway - 4 girlfriends away from our families and kids! We were pleasantly surprised at the size and cleanliness of the spacious sleeping cabins. It's a beautiful venue and great setting with plenty of beautiful views and activities...we enjoyed our hike on Saturday, exploring the area and relaxing by the cozy fire. We played cards out on the sunny deck and enjoyed playing pool in the main lodge. We made a wonderful dinner using the fantastic full service kitchen and BBQ and enjoyed a campfire at night. So nice to make our own meals - kitchen is awesome. It felt like we had the run of the place on our own. Hilary's story and vision for this place is inspiring. It's a wonderful venue for a company/girls retreat or wedding! More...

I just spent a weekend at Epona Rise for a women's business retreat with Deanna Deacon as a host, and enjoyed every second of it. The cabins are so peaceful and secluded, the main hall is absolutely breathtaking with large windows and a perfect view of a little valley. The horses are pure magic - I definitely recommend asking Hillary about her programs. More...

Spent four wonderful days in November 2017 with Hillary and her herd. Going back this Spring. Hillary listens, gets it and gives great guidance. She is inspirational beyond expectation. I have since rescued a dozen horses of my own. Her herd, all rescues, are so gentle, respectful and wise. My small business strategy was improved with Hillary's advice and my heart was full with simply remembering the horses gentleness and wisdom. Next visit I will not be afraid to lie on the snow or grass with her magnificent horses. Recommend a session, unreservedly. More...

What a truly amazing place! These aren't your ordinary accommodations. When we first arrived we didn't know what to expect but shortly after our arrival we knew our stay would be beyond expectations. Within a few minutes of our arrival we were sitting in front of crackling fire in the common area lodge and making friends with others guests. In the evening we went back to our cabins and melted into the soft beds. I hadn't slept that long in months. In the morning we woke up to a beautiful sunny valley. The staff treat people like friends and you're encouraged to make yourself feel like this is your home. Additionally, there's a herd of rescue horses on the property which you can arrange to interact with. If you're looking for a quiet, peaceful and unassuming place I would highly recommend a stay at Epona. More...

I recently organized a meeting/ retreat at this venue. As soon as I connected with the owner Hilary, she was responsive, resourceful, calm and her communication was on point. The lodge and farm is absolutely beautiful and the cabins are gorgeous- a cut above the old dude ranch but still within budget and comfy, cozy and clean with great decor. It all lends itself to a feeling of getting away from it all - the very definition of retreat. You’ll be welcomed and will want for nothing at Epona. More...

We had an incredible experience at the Epona Rise Retreat Center. As the planning, I had a seamless experience before, during and after the event. Carson and Maddie were available to answer my questions prior to, ease my nerves and provide all information I required. We came as a sales group of 24 individuals for a creative brainstorming session in a natural setting. The experience was beyond anything we ever could have asked for! The service level was truly unmatched, and I've planned dozens of similar events. Having the cabin accomodations 50 feet from the main lodge was a huge asset. We brought a chef with us and Carson and Maddie were constantly available to help out with serving food, cleaning up, running into town for us etc. It was unbelievable! Overall, every person on our team said it was the best sales retreat we've ever had and we've been in business for 40 years. I couldn't provide a higher recommendation. Thank you to the Epona team!

I found this place after researching different leadership development experiences. I did a half day equine experience session lead by Hillary. I had no experience with horses before this and was a little intimidated going in. Hillary held the space carefully and gave really clear instructions around safety in the field. After that, I was really blown away by her approach of using the herd of retired horses. Tons of insight and and a new perspective. It was definitely a welcome break from the hotel conference room, mediocre lunch and motivational speaker style of leadership retreat. Would highly recommend this space and programming. More...

Stayed for a week in the summer, we wanted something near Sun Peaks and still away in the wilderness. The staff really made us feel welcome.
Lots of hiking trails on the property.
The cabin was well outfitted with a tub and shower. Loved that the main lodge was shared, we made some amazing pizza in the big restaurant size oven!
Sun Peaks was about 15 minutes to the main village. I had no idea that they had so much going on in the summer, the chairlift was running for hiking and mountain biking.

If you are considering, even remotely, to experience what Hillary and the herd will call forth in you, please follow your instinctual voice. Coming from a woman who is not a "horsewoman" though finally listened to her heart and took the plunge into the experience, you will be beside yourself as you drive away from the farm and allow the richness to continue to unfold itself unto you. Step into what awaits YOU!! More...
