Available Packages

Double - Window Zen Pod
Deposit: $500
Available until October 9, 2025Sold Out

Price is Per Person.  Double Occupancy Shared Queen Bed in a Window Zen Pod. Enjoy the view of autumn leaves from your window and wake up to sunlight streaming through the fall foliage.


The Zen Pods are housed within a circadian rhythm cabin designed by award-winning architecture firm GWWO.  These Circadian Rhythm Wellness accommodations are oriented to realign guests to the body’s natural rhythm. Rise with the sun shining through expansive floor to ceiling windows, fall asleep nestled in your glamping pod, and rest easily from nature's calm. The thoughtful design reduces stress, enhances creativity and clarity of thought, and increases your connection to the environment. 


Modern Zen pods ensure each guest has their own space to unwind while together. They are the best of both worlds - together, with space.  Each cabin room has two shared bathrooms for 8-10 guests housed between 12 zen pods.  Each zen pod has a cabinet with a lock, light, and plenty of floor space for bags and personal items.  A thick privacy curtain closes the door of your pod from the rest of your cabin. 


Price reflects Early Bird $150 Savings through 6/13/25.  Rates increase by $150 on 6/13/25. There is no coupon code needed the discount price is reflected in list rate.


Nota Bene:  The Zen Pod is a cozy space and this option is for one shared queen bed, with a thick privacy curtain separating your Zen Pod from the a communal meadow cabin.  This option is best for friends, not lovers (check out the yurt for more privacy) and I cannot pair folks in a shared bed, you must register with a friend to secure this rate since you are sharing a bed.

Nota Bene:  The Quad Glamping Yurt is more private than the pods in the Meadow Cabin for those who want to have a slumber party vibe with a close knit group of friends. I cannot pair folks, you must register with all three friends/roommates to secure this rate since you are sharing 2 roomy queen beds for quad occupancy in the yurt. To qualify for the quad occupancy, you must register and indicate the 3 guests you are registering with.  If your guests do not register, I will notify you and change your reservation to a double yurt or a zen pod in the cabins and can pair you with a buddy if needed.

Lilly’s retreat was thoughtfully organized and displayed exceptional attention to detail at every step. Her intentional approach reflected a deep understanding of the intricacies involved, creating a supportive and nurturing environment throughout the experience! - Cat

Immediately upon arriving to the Osa, I felt the magical pull of the jungle and the sea. It felt so easy to decompress and reset. The morning practices were powerful and inspiring. I enjoyed winding down with somatic practices to get deeper into myself. I appreciate your flexibility and willingness to stay open to any schedule shifts. The Osa and Nereus were perfect retreat destinations - I loved the journey to & from, the Yoga Shala, every single meal, and spending the days floating in the ocean. I would live this retreat over & over again; thank you!

This retreat was impeccable! From the beautiful fall foliage at River Mountain, to the cedar spring hot tubs to soak in, to the twice daily yoga classes, Lily created an experience and getaway that was truly restful and allowed me to come back home to myself. Lily is not just a skilled yoga instructor, but a skilled retreat leader, and her two decades of leading retreats really shows! Lily has a calm yet commanding presence, and works to ensure all details are thought through and taken care of. She's able to troubleshoot and problem-solve on the fly with the retreat center for those last minute changes, and the way she curated this experience allowed me to truly simplify. Thanks, Lily, for a great retreat and reset!
