Welcome to the Resonance Retreat

We are delighted and honored that you will be joining us for this experience - especially because we know how hard it can be to put yourself first, set aside all that’s on your plate, and dedicate real, meaningful time to your own wants and needs. Thank you for choosing to spend that time with us!

This is your landing page for all things Resonance, and we will be updating with additional details and materials as we get closer to November 14th. If there is any information that you don’t see here or on our FAQ page, please do not hesitate to reach out to either of us directly. We look forward to seeing you in just a few short weeks!

Warmly,

Christy & Meg

To support everyone’s clarity and safety during the retreat, please download and sign our retreat waiver, available here:

As always, please reach out to us directly with any questions or concerns!

Accommodations

Room Details: The Cottage

You will have a private keyed hotel room with either two Queen beds or one King bed (depending on your requested room occupancy at registration) and an ensuite bathroom. The common areas in the Cottage include a great room, kitchen and game room. Floorplans and room layouts can be viewed here.

Check in: Thursday November 14 as early as 5:00 p.m. Check out: Sunday November 17 at 10:00 a.m.

Extending your stay

The Cottage will only be available from Thursday - Sunday. If you’d like to add onto your time away to take advantage of the resort and spa (which sounds like a fabulous idea!) you can book a hotel room at the Geneva National Resort through their site.
