About

⚠️ Reservation required. Read below⚠️

This summer we are partnering with local farms and producers to host outdoor yoga classes in support of local businesses. We will lead a one-hour outdoor yoga class, followed by a tour of the property. You will have the opportunity to sign up for CSAs and buy local products directly from the producer after class.

Join us August 19th for a yoga class and farm tour of Rainshadow Organics. Rainshadow Organics promotes widespread regenerative farming and eating on their 200-acre farm. They produce certified organic vegetables, herbs, berries, flowers, pork, chicken, eggs, turkey, beef, and grains. Everything is distributed within 50 miles of the farm through CSA programs, local restaurants, grocery stores, farmer’s markets and their Farm Store. They are family-owned and community-based. We are proud to be working with Rainshadow Organics and supporting their mission. Learn more about Rainshadow Organics here.

This is a mindfulness-based, all-levels flow class that links breath and movement. Come practice in community, in nature, and support local!

🗓 August 19th from 9am-11am.

  • How do I get to the retreat?
    Summer Lake Hot Springs is located in the Oregon Outback, about 2 hours southeast of Bend, Oregon. Detailed directions will be provided after booking. We recommend carpooling for a more eco- and budget-friendly option. If you are interested in carpooling with another retreat attendee, please reach out.
  • What are the check-in and check-out times?
    Check-in is at 4pm on Friday. We will be waiting to welcome you, show you around the property and help you settle in. Check-out is at 11am on Sunday. We will provide you with our local area guide, with options to explore the Oregon Outback on your way back home.
  • Will I share a bed with someone I don’t know?
    We added tiered options for sleeping arrangements - you get to choose. There are three options for sleeping preferences ("personal camper," “shared/book together” and “solo”) and three kinds of beds (full futon, full bed, queen). Our most affordable option, the "personal camper" option is for those coming with their van, trailer, RV, truck bed camper, etc. Depending on the length of your camper, you can park in one of the cabin driveways or in the camping area, with access to the public restrooms/showers. The group cabin accommodation fee is replaced by camp accommodation fee charged by Summer Lake Hot Springs, factored into the price. The “shared/book together” option is for those who are booking with another person or for those who will share a bed with another retreat attendee. If you are booking this option for two people please keep in mind that each person will book separately. When booking for the second person please choose the same sleeping option. The “solo” option is for those who would like the bed to themselves. Any questions? Reach out to us!
