Came for a weeklong tai chi retreat. I was fed like royalty and the staff were attentive to the needs of our very large group. Local walking trails were quiet and peaceful. Can’t wait to return!

This lovely retreat center is beautifully appointed, lovingly tended, cheerfully hosted and served the healthiest food striving to cater to preferences and allergies.
I hope I have the opportunity to visit again.

An idyllic and beautiful getaway in the south of Whidbey Island. It brings to mind images of Tolkien's Rivendell. Lush forest with wonderfully maintained grounds and trails winding through it. Definitely a must visit location.
