EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Development Opportunity - SELLER WANTS TO SEE THIS PROJECT BUILT - OFFERING TO CARRY PAPER OF $2,750,000.00 @ 6.5% interest 15 year amortization with a 5 year ballon.
Balsam House Retreat: A Sanctuary in the Adirondacks. Proposed ADR 350.00; HVS Feasibility Study.
Nestled deep within the emerald embrace of the Adirondack Mountains, The Balsam House is more than a wellness resort—it's a return to self.
Here, beneath towering evergreens and beside mirror-like lakes, the pace of life slows. Guests arrive not to escape the world, but to rediscover their place in it.
From sunrise yoga on dew-kissed meadows to guided forest bathing through ancient pines, every experience is designed to reconnect body, mind, and spirit. Our wellness philosophy is rooted in nature’s rhythm—seasonal therapies, locally-sourced botanical cuisine, and elemental spa treatments inspired by earth, air, fire, and water.
The retreat's architecture, crafted from reclaimed timber and natural stone, blends seamlessly with its surroundings. Accommodations offer mountain views, wood-burning fireplaces, and silence so profound it becomes its own kind of music.
Whether you seek solitude, healing, or inspiration, Balsam House offers a personalized journey. Meditative hikes, artisan workshops, cold plunge rituals, and herbal apothecary sessions—all await those who feel the call of the mountains.
This is not just a place. It is a practice. A living rhythm of stillness and strength. Whispering Pines invites you to retreat… and to return renewed.
