The price does not include transportation to Louisiana or to and from the airport.

    • Transportation to Louisiana or to and from the airport is not included.

    • If you’re flying in for the retreat, you will need to rent a car. 

    • We will connect guests who are flying from out of state so they can coordinate ride shares.

  • The Retreat Center is one hour away from the Greater New Orleans area, and a little less than 1.5 hours from the French Quarter or airport.

    Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) is the closest major airport.

  • Each guest has a private room (unless they’ve requested otherwise). Three of the bedrooms have an en suite bathroom, and each house has two bedrooms that share one bathroom.

    • Clothing: The “weight” of the clothes will depend on the season (we send a message ahead of each retreat with advice for that), but in general, bring comfortable clothes and shoes for lounging, playing with art supplies (we do provide aprons), stretching, and walking. And of course, your jammies and/or robe. Bring “easy” shoes, flip flops are fine in warmer months, but you will need to bring tennis/walking shoes for the walks between the houses and the walks on the property. 

    Q: Can I bring my own art supplies?

    A: You can, but know that you may not have the opportunity to use them. 

    Q: Should I bring my laptop?

    A: It’s not necessary and you won’t use a laptop during the art and writing sessions, but feel free to bring it for use during free time and at night.

    • We provide six meals during your stay.

    • Beverages include coffee, tea, water, and other beverages (depending on the season). 

    • Light snacks will be provided between meals and will be available during our initial meet and greet, and during art sessions.

    • Before each retreat, we collect dietary requirements (including dietary restrictions or allergies) and preferences so that all guests can be well and safely fed during the retreat.

“Accommodations were really nice- they did a great job doing that. The food was off the charts, they will far exceed anyone’s expectations w/ the food. They blew that out of the water.”
