The view, oh the view! We arrived at sunset and the landscape at the Rock Retreat was gorgeous!

We had toured the caves in the late afternoon and the Rock Retreat is a very convenient stop over point from them.

The private retreat was perfect for our family. It is right below Biddy's family home so they are close by should you need anything. We arrived late and because of difficulties with our phones hadn't been able to check in with Biddy since we left the States. However, it didn't matter. Biddy had the retreat ready for us and had even left the light on! :)

The loft worked great for my two teenage sons. The retreat is cozy and clean. Biddy left us fixings at the retreat for a nice breakfast of cereal, Greek yogurt and coffee. She had also left delicious homemade bread. Which we used to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for our Alpine Crossing Hike the next day. It took about two hours to get to the Alpine Crossing spot from Biddy's. We started the Alpine Crossing about 10:45 and arranged a 5:30 pick-up that worked out nicely.

Biddy also helped us arrange a shuttle to pick us up after we completed the Alpine Crossing. It worked out perfect for us.

One thing to note is the address didn't show up on our GPS but when we got to the closest house number our GPS would give us we saw a sign with arrows for the Rock Retreat. It's down a long lane from the main road. So it was very easy to fine.

The Rock Retreat is a great stop over point from the caves and again the view it provides of the surrounding countryside is awe inspiring!
