Fat Joy June Retreat

Setting: 

Per our June 2024 venue host, "Escape to our charming log cabin, nestled amidst the trees of Columbia, NJ. Experience the peace and quiet of nature as you relax in the cozy living room, cook meals in the well-equipped kitchen, or play games in the gaming room. After a long day of exploring, unwind in the private backyard with a fire pit and hot tub.

Who Will Be There? 

This is intentionally a very small retreat - you’ll be staying with no more than 8-12 folks, yourself included.  Our hope is that this will facilitate deeper connection, allow for everyone to feel seen and supported, and still leave space to take a break if overwhelmed.

Sleeping arrangements: This retreat is modeled on the intimacy of a best friends' group getaway, meaning the tone of the weekend is more of a slumber party than a hotel.  The base price of the event includes as its default a shared room with a luxury double air bed (weight rating of 600 pounds).  Our venue has multiple options for accommodations, and you'll be able to select the one best for you at the final step of registration.  Private room options are limited.

​

Shared cooking: Many hands make light work!  We’ll divvy up meal prep, cooking, and dishes.  (Don’t worry - we’re talking very user-friendly food.)

Travel: 

The venue is located almost equal distances from both NYC and Philadelphia in Warren County, New Jersey.

​

We know - unless you already live in rural Northern NJ, this is a bit of a trek.  We are betting that it will still be worth it to join us in this warm, restful, secluded space vetted for sturdy furniture, privacy, and hot tub access…)

​

Parking: Our hosting venue can accommodate up to six cars. We will work together on travel options to make sure everyone can show up safely with as little stress possible!
