Play, Rest, Renewal: A Guild New Year's Retreat

This program starts December 28th and ends January 3rd.  A minimum 3-night stay during that window is required to register.

As the year winds down, join us by the river for a gentle and joy-filled New Year’s retreat!

This retreat is about slowing down and savoring the turning of the year during this lightly scheduled retreat.  Snowshoe at Lake Wenatchee, enjoy the holiday cheer in downtown Leavenworth, sleep in, sip coffee, ski the Plain trails, or simply cozy up with a good book.  Let us feed you soup and homemade bread while you rest, reflect, and reconnect. Families are welcome and encouraged—there’s room here for all ages.

Studio space is available for rent if you’d like dedicated space for a creative project.  Our evening gathering will include time for holiday crafts, a New Year’s Eve celebration, reflection, a snowy labyrinth walk, and – for the adventurous – a cold plunge in the river on New Year’s Day!

Whether solo, with friends, or with your whole family, you’ll be warmly welcomed.

Let’s greet 2026 together—with soup, snow, art, and community. Come for as few as 3 nights or stay for the whole program. However you join, may this be a time of gentle renewal and joy
