Join a Retreat

Come on your own.

Every other retreat here is a private booking: you bring the group. These are the ones you can join as one person.

Why This Exists

You should not need to organise nine friends to go on a retreat.

Raven's Retreat is a private preserve: normally a group books the whole property. That works beautifully if you have a group. It leaves out everyone who just wants to come. These retreats are small, joinable, adults-only, and assembled by Raven personally, which is also why everyone joining one has a short call with her first.

Visiting Facilitator · Dates Confirmed

Sacred Beginnings, 14 to 18 January 2027.

Susan Gladden of Yoga Loves Susan brings her five-day women's retreat to the Sculptor's Art Lodge this January: gentle yoga, guided meditation, Intuition Painting®, sharing circles and group coaching, with plant-based meals and the whole 58-acre preserve to the group.

This one is Susan's programme rather than ours, so registration goes through her directly. We provide the lodge, the land and the kitchen.

  • Four nights, women only, all-inclusive from $2,190
  • Six private bedrooms, sauna, hot tub and fire pit
  • No yoga or painting experience needed
  • Booked and run by Susan Gladden

Also in the works: a chef-led food day on the preserve, built around foraging and cooking together. It is not on the calendar yet, but you can read what it involves or ask Raven about it on your call.
