From mid-spring to early autumn Fern Creek retreats happen in the actively flourishing season at Fern Creek. For those yearning for an extended and immersive experience being outside in the company of old trees, napping in the hammock (strung between a White Oak and a Giant Leaf Maple tree), perhaps lying down in grass to gaze at summer night constellations, then plan a longer time away between June and October.
​
If you prefer the sound of rain on the roof of the gazebo around a fire or in the coziness of the Prayer Cabin on a still winter day, late-fall to early spring retreats offer a different texture of quiet in an equally enchanting way.
​
The guesthouse apartment has a full kitchen and living/study spaces and can be reserved for 2-7 days. These can be guided and include spiritual direction or not. Up to four individuals wanting to retreat together could do so in the guesthouse. The guesthouse has one bathroom, two bedrooms, and a pull-out sofa in the living room.
For these “minimally directed retreats” we help you set your intentions as you prepare to come retreat, and offer personalized suggestions and recommendations for engaging God during your retreat.
