"The path away from the parking lot, and street, invited me slowly into a deeper place - a place I needed. Then, there was the cottage, as simple as it should be, as welcoming as I desired. Thank you for thoughtfully preparing such a place as this." - a cottage guest

A cottage is available for individuals or spiritual friends to reserve, providing space for rest and reflection. This is time to put aside cell phones and calendars to be attentive to the presence of God in your life. The cottage may be reserved for a few hours or a full day. It is equipped with a propane stove for heating in the colder months.  It is furnished by a desk, chair, and a bed.  A dry sink includes drinks and snacks, and screened front porch provides a perfect place to listen to nature. It does not have running water or electricity, so lighting is done the old fashioned way with lanterns and battery-powered lights. Guests are welcome to use the refrigerator, microwave and bathroom in the Retreat House.  A state-of-the-art composting toilet outhouse is available for guests close-by (the outhouse is closed during the winter season). Here is a list of local restaurants. 
First time guests, please find information about arrival here.
For help in structuring your retreat, feel free to use our Guide for First Time Retreatants.  We also have many other prayer resources available on our Prayers and Practices page.

I met God here today.  A friend told me to come and expect that God would already be here waiting to pour our hospitality for me.  That happened.  The thin blanket of snow and deep red cardinal greeted me as I approached the cabin.  Reading several of Paul’s letters enlivened my heart.  A Play-full life was a good read…listening to the voice of a mentoring colleague.  –a pastor
