Parents and caregivers, take a well-deserved break and let us pamper you! At this two-day immersive retreat, you’ll explore the golden fall landscapes of Pepperwood and rejuvenate yourself through hikes, yoga, and massage and stay overnight at our Bechtel House retreat cabin. Treat yourself to a weekend away from it all, among fellow nature-lovers.

Saturday afternoon, we’ll embark on a hike to connect with nature led by Holland Gistelli, Education Program Coordinator and naturalist. Along the hike we’ll observe the various flora and fauna that call Pepperwood home, and enjoy refreshments overlooking 360 degree views of the region at Three Tree Hill. We’ll spend the late afternoon relaxing on the wraparound deck of the Bechtel House, with options to enjoy an herbal foot soak, art activity, and a massage with licensed massage therapist, Michael Walsh (for an additional fee). The day concludes with a catered dinner, time to relax and enjoy the sunset, and the option to take a night walk under the stars! We invite you to bring your musical instruments or a favorite game to share.

On Sunday, we will greet the day with a delicious breakfast with a view. Our retreat concludes with a nourishing yoga practice led by a certified yoga instructor. Bring your camping gear to sleep under the stars, or reserve a bunk bed in the Bechtel House (first come first served, for an additional fee). Camping gear may also be provided upon request (tents, sleeping pads). Saturday dinner and Sunday breakfast are included, and you are welcome to bring your own favorite snacks and beverages.
