OUR STORY

adventure meets heart

Rooted in Oregon's rugged outdoors New Jersey's beautiful farmland, our family's path to Oak Creek Retreat is one of adventure and service. As a former Marine who served globally, from Afghanistan to Japan, I brought my love for nature and sense of duty to this endeavor. My wife, a compassionate occupational therapist and ultra-marathon runner, adds her strength and determination to our vision.

In 2023, we welcomed our daughter, Willa Ryan Marshall, whose spirited nature embodies our family's adventurous spirit.

Oak Creek Retreat is where our passions converge - a haven where our love for nature, commitment to service, and thirst for adventure come to life. We've created this space to share our slice of paradise with you.

Oak Creek Retreat:

passion meets place

Our love for unique, locally connected vacation rentals led us to create Oak Creek Retreat. Inspired by our global travels and disillusioned by cookie-cutter accommodations, we sought to offer something extraordinary.

In 2022, we discovered the enchanting banks of Oak Creek in Cornville, AZ. This magical spot inspired us to craft a retreat that goes beyond a typical vacation rental – a place where travelers can truly connect with Central Arizona's natural beauty and community spirit.

Oak Creek Retreat is the realization of our vision: a haven that transforms a stunning locale into an immersive experience. We invite you to discover the magic of this place and make it your own, just as we have.
