How the Pricing Works:

The Cost of the Retreat (which includes all the above activities, meals, and goodies) + The Cost of Your Room Selection = Your Price

The retreat fee is $555 per person, which covers the full weekend experience.
Room rates range from $500–$900 total for the weekend, depending on your accommodation choice—see the full room breakdown below. The property is one big lodge with seven bedrooms, each with their own full bath, and most with a private entrance from outside. 

You’re welcome to book a room for yourself or share one with friends. If you’re attending as a group, we ask that one guest select and pay for the room, then coordinate cost-splitting within your group. Please note that rooms are first come, first served, so we recommend booking early to secure your preferred option.

• NEW Olive Leaf Cabin (sleeps 1-3): ONE QUEEN BED AND SLEEPER SOFA (standalone cabin, full bathroom, private living space with fireplace, full kitchen, hot tub): $800
  
  • This private cabin is adjacent to the main lodge with bathroom, jacuzzi tub, bedroom, kitchen, and living area all on ground floor. Outside, you’ll find a covered porch, an open patio, and a hot tub. Guests staying in the cabin still enjoy full access to the lodge and surrounding property — this option simply offers a more private space to retreat and unwind.  Scroll through the carousel above to view photos.
