Rest. Restore. Receive.
A Different Kind of Retreat
Summer Lake is a little quirky, beautifully rustic, and wonderfully removed from everyday life. Think glamping getaway rather than luxury spa retreat, with warm mineral springs, wide-open desert skies, and the freedom to do as much or as little as you like.
Wake when you're rested. Soak as long as you want. Wander desert trails with new friends, curl up with a book, or spend an afternoon doing absolutely nothing.
We'll offer optional morning yoga, walks, and restorative movement. The rest of the day is yours to explore, relax, enjoy a massage, or simply be.
As evening comes, we'll gather for a nourishing dinner, conversation, fireside time, and soaking beneath the stars.
A Little Rhythm to Our Days
Thursday: Arrive, settle in, and join us for dinner around 5:30 PM, followed by soaking and stargazing.
Friday & Saturday: Optional morning movement, free afternoons, and group dinners around 5:30 PM followed by relaxing evenings together.
Sunday: Enjoy a slow morning, one last soak, and head home feeling rested and renewed.
Everything is optional. There's room for both solitude and sisterhood here, and no pressure to follow a schedule.
Come as you are, settle in, and enjoy a few days that belong entirely to you.

Comfortable clothes, walking shoes, and warm layers. A flashlight or headlamp. A favorite book, journal, puzzle, or anything that helps you relax.
