About this listen

What does it take to turn a crumbling wilderness lodge into a thriving retreat? In this episode, Jennifer and Aron Toland open up about their extraordinary journey of breathing new life into a forgotten property deep in the wild. From dismantling a lodge that was barely standing to painstakingly renovating cabins, their story is equal parts grit, vision, and sheer determination.

They share how teamwork carried them through setbacks—including a serious injury that could have derailed everything—and how building a greenhouse became a symbol of their commitment to self-sustainability. It’s a raw, inspiring look at perseverance, adaptation, and the pursuit of a dream.

And when you think the adventure couldn’t get more exciting, they drop a surprise announcement: an upcoming guest interview from the hit series Mountain Men. The date isn’t set yet, but the anticipation is already building.
