Frequently asked questions.

So, what is a Retreat like?

All of our retreats will be experiential and in nature. You will get as little or as much as you want out of our retreats. The goal is to provide time for self-care, connection and rejuvenation. We all need time and space to clear our minds. All of our retreats will be designed for connection and to promote healing and overall wellbeing.

We will start each retreat with a meet and greet followed by a welcome dinner. After dinner, we will be settling into our rooms and getting to know each other. 

The following day, we will gather and discuss our goals and expectations for the retreat.  We will discuss coping strategies and give you the tools that you need for your toolbox. Some of our retreats involve journaling and soft "suggestions".  Everything is optional as we want everyone to get exactly what they need from our retreats. We will gather together in small groups to discuss certain topics and to process. We will end each day with plenty of time for fun, reflection, relaxation and connection.  You may want to hang out by the firepit or read a book...

Are the retreats considered therapy?

This is not therapy. These are wellness retreats so sometimes retreats open up "big" feelings and a lot of stuff comes to the surface.  This can be very therapeutic and healing to work on in our small groups.

However, if you are there to focus on something particular, please feel free to let Kimberly know and she will gladly give you some ideas for your stay to promote healing.

What are some examples of a retreat?

Our first retreat in 2023 was focused on wellness and Women’s Self-care which included yoga, massages, artwork, journaling, walking, relaxation and connection.  Our 2023 fall retreat was focused on Couples intimacy and connection. 2024 retreats are focused on Grief, self care, overthinking and other therapeutic work. 

Are all the retreats the same?

Each of the retreats will look a little different and will be in different locations. However, they are all experiential and healing. Activities available at the retreats will be based upon location. For more information regarding the retreats and upcoming events like and follow our Facebook page.

What’s included in a retreat?

All retreats will include food and lodging unless specified otherwise. Travel expenses are not included.

Are these Christian retreats?

Yes, I am a Christian, however, our retreats are not Christian based and Serenity Nature Retreats welcomes everyone!  Our retreats are a safe and judgement free zone and we want everyone to feel loved and welcomed.  

Being out in nature for most people is a very spiritual experience, I always feel closer to God out in nature!  

Why out in nature?

There is nothing more healing to the eyes, the brain, and the body than being out in nature. It is our opportunity to let go of stress and worries that we face day to day, and to relax and breath in peace and calm. What better "medicine" than a quiet walk in the woods. The smell of fresh air, and a mild breeze to soothe your soul, or to sit by a warm firepit gazing at the night sky. 

Am I allowed to bring my spouse/significant other /friend to the retreat?

Yes, you may bring your spouse / significant other / friend if you have booked a private room with an additional upcharge of $500.

Are payment plans available?

Yes, we are offering payment plans for the retreats in four monthly payments after the initial down payment which is required when reserve your spot. However, you can request to pay in full or in 6 payments.
