All work and no play is bad for workplace morale. According to SHRM.org, there are many benefits from hosting a company retreat. Some of those include:

  • Encouraging one-on-one interactions between employees
  • Help employees learn and grow
  • Bringing greater direction and meaning to your workplace

Off the beaten path

The Cabins at Bear River Lodge's location in Christmas Meadows, Utah is the perfect place to be off the beaten path—but not too far off!

The location provides a perfect nature retreat to get away from the hustle and bustle, without having to spend too much valuable time traveling.

Unmatched natural setting

If you've never been to the Uintas, now is the time to see one of the best-kept secrets in the beautiful state of Utah. The pristine and rugged area is known for its hiking, backpacking, fishing, and off-road vehicle activities.

The drive there alone is a treat! The Cabins at Bear River Lodge lies along U.S. Highway 150, also known as Mirror Lake Scenic Byway, Visit Utah says. It's one of the most stunning high-mountain drives you can take anywhere in the country. The route begins in Kamas and stretches through the Wyoming border with a host of overlooks, picnic areas, waterfalls, and more to stop at and enjoy the scenery.
