The Story

Their relationship with Green Rock blossomed after Tory invited them for a private stay. Their first impression of the land left them in silent awe. They felt cradled in the ancient arms of the Earth. That secluded section of the canyon, with its towering cliffs, seemed to hold the sky and earth together in a timeless, otherworldly vibration.

When it came time for Nicole-Amanda and Swiss to get married, Green Rock was the obvious choice. On the morning of their wedding, in Moon Tent, they discovered Nicole-Amanda was pregnant with their first child. (due February 5th!)  During their vows, an eagle with a serpent in its talons flew overhead. Representing the triumph of love over darkness in many cultures.  They felt the land blessing them that day.

Later that year, Tory approached them to become the next stewards of Green Rock. Nicole-Amanda and Swiss were honored and in disbelief, but it felt natural. To become the caretakers of a place that had given them so many sacred moments. Thanks to the help of the community, they are excited to continue the mission Tory began three years ago.

Now, they are preparing for the next evolution of Green Rock, ready to pour their energy into serving guests. They are developing new offerings for local families and youth. Furthermore, they are adding a mix of celebration, levity, and community. This winter they will be spending time building facilitator-requested improvements. They welcome all types of ceremonies, gatherings, and practices that hold reverence for nature. It is important to Nicole-Amanda and Swiss to preserve the land’s silent healing nature and a local family business.

To this couple, Green Rock is more than a getaway—it’s an alchemy of place and purpose, a sacred space where the boundaries between self and nature dissolve, allowing deep reconnection with a more primitive side of our soul.
