Retreat Rates

Retreat groups are required to rent at least the two log cottages (Light Of The World and Bright Morning Star). This would be a group size of 12, if all of the rooms are being shared.

The two log cottages each rent for a “flat rate” of $840 (6 % room occupancy tax included), for two nights’ lodging for up to 6 guests. If a group needs an extra spot (or two), one additional spot is available in the large bedroom of each of the log cottages at $140 each.

The two small cottages (Faithful And True and True Vine) each rent for a “flat rate” of $420 (6 % room occupancy tax included), for two nights’ lodging for up to 3 guests. If a 4th person stays in the cottage, the rate will be $560.

This "flat rate" approach will allow you to determine room assignments and also accommodate those in your group that might like their own (private) room. If everyone in your group is wanting to stay at the lowest rate ($140/person for two nights), the following table shows one possible layout.

Cottages Required For Everyone To Stay At Lowest Lodging Rate

For retreats longer than two nights, additional nights are charged at half of the corresponding two night “flat rate”. Notice that “partially filled” cottages will still be charged at their “base” amount.

We can prepare morning/evening meals for your group in our commercial kitchen. Meals from our basic menus are $13/meal (6.75 % sales tax included) for each person. Our meals feature freshly prepared entrees, home baked breads and desserts (at evening meals). With advance notice, we can usually accommodate special dietary needs and/or food allergies (e.g., vegetarian, Atkins, lactose intolerance, etc.). We require at least 10 people to provide meals.

There are a number of restaurant choices in the area for lunch, or you are welcome to "brown bag" your mid-day meal. There is an undercounter refrigerator and a microwave in all the cottages, as well as the meeting room.

Retreat Policies

Retreat reservations require a non-refundable $250 deposit at booking. Cancellation with at least 30 days notice allows the deposit to be credited toward another available date within the following six months.The balance of your group's lodging, meals and applicable taxes is due no later than 14 days before arrival. No refunds will be given after the final balance payment.

We accept credit cards (American Express, Discover, Master Card & Visa) using PayPal, and will gladly accept personal checks or cash.

The conference center will be ready at 11 AM. Guest rooms will be available for check-in at 3 PM. Check-out for all guest rooms and the conference center is noon. If it will work better for your group, these times can be "pushed back" by four hours: the conference center/guest rooms will be ready at 3 PM, and check-out will be 4 PM. If you would like the "best of both" (come early at 11 AM & leave late at 4 PM), this is available for an additional $200 "facility use" charge.

Due to food service regulations and insurance liability considerations, we are unable to make our kitchen available for guest use. All of the guest cottages, as well as the conference center, have an undercounter refrigerator and microwave oven for your use. You are welcome to bring your favorite snacks and drinks, but no cooking is permitted in either the conference center or the guest cottages. If you have us provide at least two meals during your group's stay, we will also provide ice and coffee service at no additional charge.

A Light Unto My Path is a strictly smoke-free campus (guest rooms, conference center, porches and all grounds).

No children under the age of 13 at retreats except by prior arrangement. No pets are allowed.
