We are here for YOU
We provide a space of rest and refuge for ALL women. I intentionally created Retreat in the Pines as a safe and sacred retreat space. Our retreats are "women only" and we deliberately keep our retreat size small, so you can find exactly what you need; whether it's connection, inspiration or self-discovery.
We are women who support each other. It's not about what you wear or if you can touch your toes. It's about time spent in conversation - sharing stories, laughter and sometime tears.
Here is what we're doing to make our space safe for you in the time of Covid.
You belong here. Jump right in and join us for a retreat. We'd love to have you! Or check us out first, join us on Facebook or Instagram.
Welcome to our community.
A limited number of guests at each retreat to create safety and intimacy.

Comfortable accommodations for the ultimate in rest and relaxation.

Practices for calming the mind and restoring the body.
30 acres of trees to allow guests to experience the healing power of nature.
"Our Mission is to provide the opportunity for ALL Women to find healing and a new perspective in our sacred space of friendship, respect and love. I'd be honored to support you on your journey."
Community and connection are the cornerstone of Retreat in the Pines. When you meet women and find common ground, in spite of different backgrounds, it's only natural to support and encourage each other - at the retreat - and into the future. The moments of healing you experience, surrounded by love, respect and encouragement, make Retreat in the Pines different from other yoga retreats. Each moment YOU choose - time alone or togetherness - taking what you need and leaving what you don't.
We believe ALL women have the right to a retreat; regardless of ethnicity, religious beliefs, age, physical ability, size, sexual orientation or income. Our Retreat Assistance program is for women who are facing financial challenges and need assistance. This is for YOU or someone you may know - we are committed to bringing the life changing experience of our retreats to all women.
Our guests are encouraged to be un-apologetically themselves at every step of the retreat. There's no need to wear make up. Showing up for breakfast in your pajamas is the way we roll. Sharing is encouraged. Laughter is embraced. Tears are welcome. Each member of our team has been chosen for her empathy and compassion, as well as her willingness to show up as her authentic self.
We reduce, recycle, re-use. Our seasonal retreat menus are created to minimize food waste. We compost table scraps, coffee filters, vegetable peelings and more. We shop local for produce, chickens and eggs and grow our own herbs. We believe in conserving our planet's resources - using rain barrels to water our garden and asking guests to be conscientious about their energy and water consumption. We support economic sustainability by paying all of our staff a living wage.
We create empowerment in our retreat space and by giving to local non-profits that support women. By joining us for a retreat, not only are you embodying personal change, you're also making a difference in the lives of other women. The Carmen Brantley Scholarship Fund is in honor of a former retreat guest and friend. Donations, along with our own contributions, provide retreats through our Retreat Assistance Program. We love everything about The Magdalen House, inspired by their mission and their love for women. We welcome giving opportunities, contact us.
