At The Pine Ridge Room, we are a small, independent business with a close-knit team of just three employees. Each of us is compensated generously and receives quarterly bonuses based on the business's success—ensuring everyone shares in the value of what we create together.

While we deeply appreciate that some guests may wish to show their gratitude with a tip, we kindly ask that instead, you share your appreciation through honest reviews on public platforms. Your words go much further in helping us grow and welcome new guests into this experience.
