Kindling Words at Highlights

 

Come join us at Highlights Foundation campus for a retreat.  There will be delicious, locally sourced meals, with snacks and beverages throughout the day.  This retreat will be low-key and unstructured and a time to connect as a group. The Highlights Foundation campus has ample opportunities for walking, hiking, bird watching and gorgeous sunsets as the campus is surrounded by nature and farms.  This setting is sure to ignite your creativity and inspire you well beyond the retreat experience.

You may check into your lodging any time after 3pm on arrival day.  If you arrive prior to 3pm, you may enjoy the grounds and various work and gathering places around the facility as your room is being prepared. The first meal on campus will be appetizers at 5:30pm and dinner at 6:00pm.  If you arrive late, we can save dinner for you with advance notice.

Lunch on the final day of your stay is included, but we ask that you check out of your lodging by 11am. You are welcome to leave your packed bags by the door of your room/cabin while you enjoy lunch and say your goodbyes. Housekeeping may enter your room during this period to begin cleaning and prepping for our next guests.  Thank you for your consideration.

Lodging and Other Info:

Accommodations are on a first-come, first-serve basis, and the price reflected is for a five-night stay, single occupancy. If you would like to add one or two days to your stay, you’ll find that option during the registration process.

If you are interested in sharing accommodations with a friend, one person should register and pay a deposit, selecting the “General Lodging – Double Occupancy” option, setting the guest count to 2. You will be prompted to enter both you and your roommate’s basic information. In the comments section of the registration form, please indicate whether you require one queen or two twin beds. After registration, we will adjust your rates accordingly so each person’s total bill will cover half of the total cost.

The Highlights Foundation is near to a couple of area airports and bus stations. You may read more about planning your travel at Getting Here page.

There is also free parking on site if you drive.
