The venue is beautifully simple and rustic in design. All rooms and group spaces are open air.

It has been an absolute dream come true to host retreats together, witnessing the power of getting away, relaxing, recentering and spending time connecting with your creativity.

Emily is a licensed art therapist with a bachelor of fine arts. A traveler extraordinaire & passionate about creative mediation and mindfulness.

Kind Words 

“Thank you Jen and Emily for an exceptional retreat! You are both exceptionally talented and your warm approach created an environment where creativity flourished and friendships were forged.  From the exceptional location, cuisine, and engaging activities, every aspect was thoughtfully curated- just a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure- can’t wait to do it again!”

Kim

from previous guests 

“Self care is often advertised as going to get a massage or a manicure but I would argue that a retreat with Jen and Emily is the ultimate self care experience. You get to show up and be pampered with time to reconnect with your creativity and your authentic self. I left the retreat with a renewed sense of self and inspiration to continue to create! Thanks for a wonderful weekend of art, friendship, and rest!”

Adrian

“I couldn’t have asked for a more varied art/wellness retreat: painting &creating with a variety of mediums, creative writing and reflections, yoga and meditation wellness, and a chance to enjoy the outdoors. The retreat was one of the best I have attended, and I cannot wait to join another”

  • We promise that all of our workshops will feel accessible to all levels of experience. We truly believe that everyone has a creative side and we’d love to help you explore that.

    Our focus will be on creativity and enjoying the process. While we offer instruction to those who would like more instruction, the retreat will not be heavily focused on formal instruction.
