Tim and Sarah were so wonderful to us! We got to experience what it means to be truly the Center and the Center, and learned so much about whole foods. They were very accommodating and always gave us the most delicious food, and asked us for food requests. We got to watch the stars together, have bonfires, and had the best time on our Oregon coast trip. Rafting was also something we did!! The dogs made it so memorable ❤️❤️ The only downside was there wasn't much work to be done, but there were reasons so I'm sure next time they will have a bunch of work to do!! Love you guys!!

I had a great time here! Tim and Sarah were really sweet and they made me feel very welcome. They really gave me a new perspective on the Center and taught me a lot about the reasons for people to be the Center. Sarah also made some delicious the Center food! I can recommend this experience if you want a detox from technology and just be in nature a bit more. Ps: they also have the cutest dogs :)

Tim is very friendly and easy to talk to, he has lots of knowledge on healthy food and living off grid, in the short amount of time that I got to know him (left early for personal reasons) I found him to be trustworthy. I'd recommend this experience for those who want to learn about healthy lifestyle, plants, building stuff, and you'll also love it if you like dogs (he has 4). The nearby river is beautiful and I had some of my favorite moments there, swimming or just playing guitar next to the water. His food is very filling and delicious. He lets you choose your own seasoning and everything.
