Policies
Group Size
- When you book your retreat, you’ll be asked how many guests will be attending, but you’ll have a chance to change this number up to two weeks before the start of your retreat.
- Three weeks before the start of your retreat, you’ll receive an email asking you to confirm your group size. Then, about two weeks before the start of your retreat, you’ll receive an invoice based on that final number.
- Once we send your invoice, we are not able to adjust it or give refunds if your group size goes down or if members of the group cancel at the last minute. If your group size goes up at the last minute, you’ll receive a supplemental invoice to cover any additional guests.
Deposits and Payments
- 50% deposit is due at time of reservation. Your reservation is not complete until we receive your deposit.
- The balance will be due two weeks prior to your event.
Cancellations and Refunds
- For reservations canceled more than eight weeks before the event start date, 100% of the deposit will be refunded.
- For reservations canceled between four and eight weeks before the start date, 50% will be refunded.
- For reservations canceled less than four weeks before the start date, no refund will be given.
