What should I expect at the Retreat?

Guests:

Our retreats are intimate gatherings of 5-15 book lovers, ranging in age from 20s to 60s. Our shared passion for reading brings us together! Whether you're an introvert seeking quiet moments or a social butterfly, you'll find your fit!

Our Retreat Venue: A serene lakeside retreat, steps away from Lake Erie. Stroll along the beach, soak in the views, or get lost in a good book. There will be plenty of room to gather and discuss our latest book obsession, or escape to a quiet corner for some peaceful reading time. There is plenty of parking available. The exact location of the venue will be included in your welcome package following your registration.

What's included:

• Two nights accommodations - Every guest has their own bed within a shared space.

  • If you are travelling with a friend and would like to share a bed, please contact us before booking for a discounted price.

  • If you are travelling with a friend and would like to be placed in the same room (but not share a bed), there is a spot on the registration form to include their name.
