Great food, excellent service, wonderful location! Enjoyed the ayurvedic massages, frequent yoga sessions, walks in the woods, and the serene environment, all of which enabled us to reflect and relax and a little bit.

The retreat was as always wonderful. This was my third time here and I can't wait to come back soon. But next time I want to stay longer, maybe a whole week. I can say that Richard's retreat touches the heart and souls of people! It is a true gem.

What a lovely retreat center! I had let stress consume me, and I wanted to be healthy again. Just three days at this retreat center brought my body back into balance. The strength of this center is in the practitioners. For them, service is an act of love, and it shows. I felt instantly bathed in loving kindness from the... More

Ayurveda Health Retreat is a family owned and operated center where guests are treated as part of the family. The staff could not have been kinder or more helpful. I will be back.
