Meals: We do not prepare meals. Retreatmants may prepare their own meals using our kitchens. There are grocery stores and restautrants nearby. Retreatants are responsible for ensuring that the kitchen facilities are returned to their original condition after use.

Noise and Observing Silence: We strive to maintain an environment that is as quiet as possible. Please do not use any radios, CD players, stereos or other similar devices while on retreat. You may use private listening devices at a volume level that does not disturb others. If you wish to maintain silence please wear an “observing silence card” around your neck to alert others not to speak to you unless necessary.

Smoking: There is no smoking inside any of our structures nor in the forest. When you smoke outside, please be mindful of others and dispose of all refuse safely.

Housekeeping: When you leave, please strip beds and place used linens and towels in pillowcase and leave outside your door. Remake beds using linens provided in dresser drawers. As you do so, you might take a moment to be mindful of or pray for those who will come after you. Please leave kitchen and bath clean, putting away dishes, pots and pans, and utensils. You may leave your keys in your room on the bed or bring them by the office.

How quiet is it here? Please be sure to talk with us about the level of quiet and solitude that you require. On most days, the property is very peaceful however; there are regular events that bring people to the property. On most evenings there are small classes or meetings and the day camp has occasional winter programs.
