Because we're a nonprofit retreat center with a focus on wellness and evidence-based mind-body techniques, we encourage all groups to choose one or more wellness sessions to include as part of their group rental. These sessions enhance your meeting with a change of pace, give your group an opportunity to experience or learn about helpful tools that can reduce stress, enhance well-being, and take advantage of both our facilities and expertise.

Groups can choose one or more wellness sessions from these options:
