Gentle Earth Retreats, Ithaca, New York
Our retreats are held at a quaint 1890’s bed and breakfast style farmhouse. There are six rooms that accommodate six to eleven people, so the participants are sure to enjoy a very peaceful and private stay. The grounds are completely surrounded by tall pines and are nestled in the quiet farmland area in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. There is a fitness room with cardiovascular and resistance equipment, a hot tub, a large pool, an infrared sauna, mountain bikes, a large movie and fiction library and a lovely country pond with a paddle boat. A bright yoga room accommodates daily yoga or Pilates classes and is available anytime for stretching or meditating. Large grassy grounds with walking trails surround the center for strolling or relaxing on one of the benches.
For those who choose to wander, the surrounding area has much to offer. We often take organized trips to enjoy the many things the fingerlakes region has to offer. There are several waterfalls, majestic gorges, and the beautiful Cayuga Lake within 15 minutes. The City of Ithaca is nearby, a stop that many enjoy for its unique artisans, shopping, natural products, museums, science center and the beautiful Ivy League campus of Cornell University. The Cayuga Lake Wine country sports charming vineyards, antique and craft shops, and lovely views!
