Our accommodations are in our architecturally designed retreat center. The center is designed by Co-owner and Architect Scott Currie has a contemporary, rustic, country aesthetic that offers guests a special place to reflect on peace, awareness and rejuvenation in the ranches majestic and natural landscape. Purified spring water and an abundance of fresh fruit is always available. A cool cleanse in our outdoor shower is refreshing after yoga, or a walk on one of the nature trails. Our all-inclusive retreat is designed around a landscaped courtyard, where guests can enjoy their meals, or a glass of wine at sunset. At the end of the day relax in the hot tub or saltwater pool under our starry night skies.

I attended a yoga and pilates retreat and can attest that is a truly special place. Prior to the retreat, communication with Scott (one of the owners) was informative and super responsive. Upon arriving, I was greeted warmly by the property's caretakers, Rich and Hope. The property has absolutely everything you could ask for - beautiful grounds, lovely hiking trails, a pool with incredible views, a hot tub, and lovely, well-kept rooms. The yoga studio itself is spacious and has a beautiful view of the grounds.

I also cannot say enough good things about Nicole, our yoga and pilates instructor during the retreat. She is thoughtful, warm, intuitive, and super friendly. She made all of the yoga, pilates, and even Bollywood dancing (!) really approachable and open to all levels. She also led the group in fun activities like hiking and making our own essential oil blends. Nicole is awesome and we were so lucky to have her expertise and guidance throughout the retreat.

They also offer acupuncture, massage, and bodywork for an additional fee. I had a session with Hope that left me feeling so relaxed and centered. Such a gift!

Also, the food! The food is amazing. It is prepared with so much care and intention. It was all delicious, plentiful, and nourishing. It's all vegetarian and (I think) mostly vegan. They also seamlessly catered to a few dietary restrictions that existed within the group.

Lastly, the community that was built in just a few short days was really incredible. I think that's a testament to the environment they provide as well as the amazing people who work there. After this retreat, I felt so much more centered, connected, and peaceful.

Thank you, for an incredible experience!
