Private Retreats

Find the time for reflection and spiritual reconnection.

A private retreat of one or several days allows you to take some peaceful time away from everyday activities. This time can be spent in praying, reading, journaling, walking, resting, visiting our library, and other quiet activities that restore the soul. Your time here is your own.

Many of our guests come for the quiet peace of the land: 61 acres high above the Hudson River. They enjoy the gardens and trails, visit the Healing Hut and Labyrinth, and enjoy the magical views of the Hudson River and valley. Some enjoy the quiet corners of the center and explore personal relationships with God in the Chapel or reading room. You can choose to conduct your private retreat in silence, or not.

During your retreat, you can enjoy a comfortable, affordable, private guest room with a sink. Showers and bathrooms are shared in each residential hallway.

Planning Your Private Retreat

Plan to check in at the center after 1pm and 2:30pm on the day you arrive. Dinner is served at 6pm in the dining room.

Private Retreats are priced at $100 per weekday/night, and $125 per weekend day/night, as of 2023. This fee includes 3 meals: normally, dinner upon arrival, and breakfast and lunch the next day.  Please plan on checking out by 11am on the day you leave the center.

Please Note: We ask that private retreatants comply with the following before making a reservation:

  1. If you are new to the center, we ask that you please supply a reference or recommendation letter or email from a person or organization known to Mariandale. Please address this letter or email to the Registrar at Mariandale, 299 N. Highland Avenue, Ossining, NY 10562, or email to info@mariandale.org
  2. We ask that you make a reservation for a personal retreat at least 14 days in advance of your arrival, as our guest rooms are often filled quickly by our programs.
