As spring approaches, life returns across the property, drawing more of each day outdoors and back toward the land.

Changing of the Season mirrors that shift through seasonal dining at Wilder, time spent moving freely across the fields and river, and evenings that settle into live music and firelight.

Plan Your Spring Getaway

Seasonal dining, luxury accommodations, and on-site experiences thoughtfully arranged, leaving you free to enjoy the land as it moves into spring.

Marking the Return of Spring

April 17–19, 2026

Changing of the Season unfolds over two nights as the land settles into spring. Each day balances seasonal meals, time outdoors, and thoughtful moments shaped by the season. From lunch in the garden to experiences like live music during dinner at Wilder, the weekend moves with ease, leaving space to rest, explore, and discover.

What to Expect

Over the course of two nights, guests settle into their choice of accommodation and enjoy seasonal dining at Wilder, thoughtfully planned programming, and access to explore the property at their leisure.

The weekend unfolds with a garden cocktail hour and floral arranging, followed by a guided walk with Head Gardener Amanda and a long-table lunch set within the garden alongside Executive Chef Ben. On Saturday evening, live regional music accompanies dinner at Wilder.

All meals and core programming are included in your stay. Between these moments, the property is yours to explore at your own pace, with optional experiences available for those who wish to discover more.
