Default Ever go on a Quilting Retreat?

Has anyone gone on a weekend quilting retreat? If so, what did you like (or dislike) about it?


I have seen these online, but have never gone to one.


I had someone wanting to have me do some financial analysis on purchasing a northern property to rent out to quilters. Since the housing market is low where they indicated, the monthly house payment would be very minimal. The house they pitched for me to review has a detached 2.5 heated garage which they thought would be useful to have tables etc. completely set up for quilters. The house has 3+ bedrooms, so a max of 8 people at a time unless converting a basement into another bedroom.

I have no idea what the demand might be. I'd like to assume one group a month, but not sure since I've never experienced one. I'm assuming if the price was low enough there may be interest. I have no clue what to use for a usage basis.

Any thoughts about retreats, or the idea in general?
Thanks much!
