Retreats
We design the experience of our retreats with care, so we do not provide day visits or drop-in Wellbeing Services. A retreat is your time away to reconnect, breathe, restore, and deeply relax. Discover our retreats thoughtfully dreamed up to nurture your being and indulge in the rejuvenating and uplifting energy of the Sanctuary. We have several retreat offerings or gift yourself a Personal Retreat.
Please note: Our 2026 retreat schedule is being developed, and additional retreats will continue to be added over time. Toward the end of January, you can expect to see more listings for the year. The Sanctuary is closed from January through February for the winter season.

What People Say
"I’m so grateful for what I experienced here this week and I can’t wait to come back!"
Thank you to all at Synchronicity 💐
I have been coming to Synchronicity for a few years now. I live in NYC where it’s loud and hectic. When I am at Synchronicity, the peace & quiet allows me to just be, to just relax, to look at my life and heal what needs to be healed on an emotional level!! The staff is Awesome! The Protocols they have available to us are cutting edge!! My favorite parts are helping out in their perfect commercial kitchen, getting a massage & going into the meditation room!! Slip on a set of headphones & be transported 💙
Give yourself a Gift and Go!
You can join a retreat or do your own retreat where you can meditate, read, write, eat well, sleep soundly and have a few great laughs with the team 💙

The environment here at the Sanctuary is just beautiful. I often come in the Fall just because I love to see the change of seasons. The walk through the woods from the Sanctuary Lodge to where all the buildings are is probably my favorite along with walking the mountain. Just the naturalness, hearing the leaves falling, the peace!
Martha Linn
Sanctuary Retreat Center is a wonderful place to step away from the stress of life to restore your spirit. The rooms are simply and beautifully appointed. The environment is heavenly in the Shenandoah mountains. It’s even lovely in the rain!
Jim’s food is Delightful and Delicious. Meals were fresh and colorful, prepared with love.
The staff could not have been more friendly or accommodating.
If you are craving multidimensional wellness services, This is The place!
Meditation your thing? Try this center’s high tech meditation space. You will not be disappointed.
I came for a four day workshop and spent an extra day. Truly did not want to leave.
Thank you All for a profoundly restorative experience. Happy New Year 2025 🥳

Nestled on acres of beautiful woodland, this retreat center is a little secret (not for long I hope) gem. The accommodations are simple but very comfortable and clean and the food is fabulous. There is a lot to choose from whether you are a vegetarian or not.
I tremendously enjoyed my walks in the woods, passing many of the little goddesses shrines along the way. Sweet moments of reflection and stillness.
A special note about the staff: they are amazing. Don’t think I have ever experienced nicer and more accommodating personnel at any other retreat.
I am so excited to be returning to Sanctuary Retreat Center in a few month and experience a different season and try some of their offered treatments.
