Favorite Retreats

Life is chaotic. What better way to calm and relax than by diving into the comfort of your favorite author with a soothing beverage, surrounded by the beauty of the piney woods.

A women only setting means you can show up as you are - physically AND emotionally
  • Makeup free. Comfy clothes. Hair in a messy bun.
  • No need to explain yourself or what you’re thinking.
  • Completely comfortable and relaxed.
Our guests share their favorite experiences at our Book Lovers Retreats
  • Talking about books and making new friends. I loved laying on the hammock in the sun reading for hours! So peaceful!
  • The openness of the schedule and no judgment! So much time to read.
  • I loved going to bed early to read and no one cared.
  • I love my time with Cecilia, she was INCREDIBLE, such a wonderful host. Shared amazing book recommendations based on what we were reading.
  • I loved this whole weekend. Cecilia really made this retreat extra amazing as she was the sweetest host and person. I really loved her yoga classes.
  • The connections I made. It was refreshing to have conversations about books and everything else and be away from screens.
  • The balance between structured activities and free time to read.
Enjoy All of This
