“On December 13th through 15th, 2024, I led a wonderful "Holiday Getaway Stress Relief Retreat" at Pine Lake Lodge with five amazing guests and myself! When we arrived, the Pine Lake Lodge was decorated with wonderful holiday lights and magnificent decorations that made us feel at home during the holiday season. It was like walking into a Winter Wonderland! Thanks to Kim!! Dan's wife. Just perfect for our get away during the holidays! My name is Gi Indoccio; the owner of Be Mindful with Gi Wellness Center On-line and in person courses and classes. Please visit my website at BeMindfulWithGi.com I also lead and host Mindfulness and Wellness retreats in the United States and Costa Rica. I teach In person classes at Flote Wellness Center in Hampton, NH in Mindfulness Based-Stress Reduction, (MBSR) 8-week course, Vision Board workshops, Attachment Relationship Theory Life Coaching, and NVC Compassionate Communication, Breathwork, and all levels of Reiki training, I, II & III, including Reiki Master Teacher Training (a year long apprenticeship program). Having the very first wellness retreat at Pine Lake Lodge in Caroga, New York was an honor and such a pleasure! Each and every guest was extremely pleased with their very spacious rooms, comfortable beds and the cleanliness of the entire lodge, including the bathrooms and the lovely captivating living area and the fun pool table room! Yes we even played pool on our mindfulness retreat. :) I myself, enjoyed some meditative time in the wee 3 am hours of the morning in the comfy, cozy living room with the beautiful illuminated Christmas tree with its lights and lovely ornaments, as I pondered life and had some truly precious moments of quiet time in the silence of the glowing beams of hope on the tree. This honestly was an incredibly peaceful time of reflection for me. We enjoyed the tremendous dining room table for 20 people, that sat us easily, and also allowed us to do our journaling and creative work making memorable votive candles with decoupage during the mindfulness retreat in such an amazing magical atmosphere. Along with the three season huge porch next to the humongous bar; we enjoyed so many wonderful memories! We did entertain ourselves in the bar area for some tranquil Reiki Energy sessions and at night a little prosecco toast to commemorate the beginning of our journey to release stress during the holiday season! I thoroughly enjoyed the time at the PLL, as did all of my guests. I was able to share with them a beautiful swag bag full of fantastic goodies. As a gift to them for joining me, they received a silk lavender eye pillow and beautiful amethyst heart for them to carry in their pocket, along with some essential oil scented hand cream and lip balm, and a beautiful leather bound journal with a positive saying on it and a pen for them to chronicle their journey while at the Pine Lake Lodge during the retreat and long after. Pine Lake Lodge held the perfect setting for this holiday getaway! My only regret... is that it was too short of time and I wish we would have stayed for a total of four nights; because two nights was not enough. Check in and check out we're very easily accomplished and anything we needed, the hosts, Jeff and Dan were able to accommodate us with. It was lovely to meet Dan's wife, Kim, as she also joined us in the enchanted winter Wonderland living room for a little fun holiday meet and greet! As a Mindfulness, Reiki and Well-Being retreat leader, I would highly recommend Pine Lake Lodge in Caroga, NY for any type of yoga, creative, or any spiritual wellness retreat!
