PERSONAL RETREATS
There are times when we need to be alone, to be away from
the demands of our lives - to be in a place where we can relax,
let go, and be still. Easton Mountain offers an ideal environment
for a personal retreat. Guests may explore our two hundred
acres of paths and trails and enjoy the energy of being in
nature. You can read quietly, write, collect your thoughts,
pursue your art, sit in contemplation or walk through the
woods. A retreat can be an opportunity to spend time with
the outside world at a distance or to bicycle through the
countryside surrounding Easton Mountain.
For those who want a little more structure for their personal
retreat, an Easton Mountain community member functions as
the Personal Retreat Director. Various services may be available,
such as massage, reiki, coaching, energy healing and spiritual
direction. The fees for these services are not included in
the fees for the retreat. Please call 800-553-8235 to schedule
a telephone interview with the Retreat Director who will help
you create the retreat that's right for you.
All Personal Retreats are subject to space availability
- not all events appear on our website calendar as some of
these events are rentals to outside groups. Please call ahead
to ensure the time you'd like to visit is available.
MEALS & ACCOMMODATIONS
All programs at at Easton Mountain include tuition, three
meals daily, use of our facilities and your choice of accomodations.
First choice of accommodations are available to those who
register early.
To see images of the accommodations, please see our Amenities
page.
Guesthouse rooms range from Semi-private
(2 beds) to Quad (2 bunk beds), each with a private bathroom.
Garden Cabin space (large room with many
bunk beds) with shared bathroom faciliites in the main Lodge
is also allocated based on early registration.
Camping is available as the weather allows.
There are many beautiful spots throughout the campus that
are suitable for setting up a tent. You will need to provide
your own camping gear.
Private rooms may be available on a limited
basis. Be sure to check the individual program page for availability.
Meals are provided three times daily - breakfast,
lunch, and dinner. Breakfast is usually served continental
style, with assorted breads, bagels, and cereals available,
along with oatmeal, yogurt and fresh fruit. Once in a while
there may be eggs or pancakes available as well. Lunch and
dinner are usually hot meals with fresh bread and salad available
at every meal. We do serve meat - usually in the form of chicken,
turkey, and fish. A vegetarian option is also available at
each meal for vegetarians - we ask that the vegetarian option
be reserved for vegetarians only as there is not enough of
the vegetarian option prepared for everyone to eat. PLESE
NOTE: WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE SPECIAL DIETARY
REQUESTS FOR FOOD ALLERGIES. If you have specific food allergies,
we suggest you bring special food for yourself to supplement
any food that we serve which you can eat. Refrigerator space
can be provided for you if needed to store your special food.
Should you have any questions about the food we serve here
to help you decide what special food to bring, please contact
the front desk at (518) 692-8023.
Snacks such as fruit and nuts, along with
coffee, assorted hot teas, chilled water and iced tea are
available 24 hours in the dining room. And you may be lucky
to find some leftover dessert to snack on from the previous
meal as well!
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
Financial assistance is available in the form of
work-study and scholarship for most programs. Please contact
us for information. Donations
to our financial assistance program are also greatly appreciated.
REGISTRATION
Call (800) 553-8235 or (518) 692-8023 or pay with a credit
card online using our secure
registration form. Some events do not have online registration.
If online registration is available, it will be indicated
on the individual program page.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Should you decide to cancel for any reason, there
is a $50 non-refundable fee for processing the payment should
you cancel one week or more before the start of your program.
If you cancel less than a week before the program starts there
is no refund.
For Living Full Out retreats, the cancellation
policy states that the deposit is non-refundable unless
another participant registers in your place. This is due to
the fact that Living Full Out retreats are limited to only
14 people, and multiple cancellations at the last minute can
negatively impact the effectiveness of the retreat and the
facilitators' compensation. If your space is filled by a subsequent
registrant, you will be notified, and you may then request
a refund according to our cancellation guideline above, or
you may apply the deposit to a future Living Full Out retreat.
EARLY REGISTRATION DISCOUNTS
From time to time, we may offer early registration discounts
for certain programs. Discounts apply for only the programs
indicated. Registration deposit must be submitted before the
date specified. Discounts will be applied by registration
staff at the time of event free processing. Discount does
not apply to minimum deposit.
