The Southern Chic Retreat

Creatives Weekend Getaway

SCR Team

The dreamer-Monica

Founder & Owner

With one foot in corporate healthcare and one in small business, I like to think I have both my creative and business sides covered.  I feel incredibly grateful for getting to live out my dreams in running this retreat, and I love knowing that I am passing along a tradition of women coming together to have a weekend of  pure fun.

The businessman-John

 Owner & Back office

While I say he is the brains behind the operation, he would undoubtedly decline the title.  However, in his day job, John is a Clinical Psychologist and a Major in the Army National Guard.  I tap him for his opinions on a daily basis, and he keeps the books straight.  I am lucky enough that he supports all the back office interactions and me in whatever crazy dream I come up with.

This place is very clean, cute, and has so much! My group jokes that we are going to find something they are missing... The rooms are comfortable and the scrapping area is spacious. I also like that the owners have information and recommendations for restaurants nearby

wonderful experience If you are looking for a cozy, laid back environment this is the place. You need to bring clothes, personal items and food if you want to cook. The kitchen is fully stocked, the house is comfortable, very clean and cute. The owners are super nice and accommodating. I'm looking forward to my next trip. Its a scrap-booking paradise and more!

We had a scrapbook retreat here. Everything about the experience was exceptional! The furnishings, the decor, the scrapbook room setup, proximity to charming McKinney, the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, grounds...we lacked for nothing! It was like a (better) home away from home! LOL!

We can't wait for our next retreat and have one already planned! We were thoroughly impressed each of our previous visits and loved every minute. This is a very comfortable place for a scrapbooking or crafting retreat or just a getaway with girl friends. John & Monica's attention to detail is amazing!
