Retreat Accommodations - General Information

LENGTH OF STAY
The ordinary length of stay at the priory guesthouses is from three days to one week.
REQUIRED CONFIRMATION OF RESERVATION
Confirmation of all reservations will be required in writing.
SHOULD YOU NEED TO CANCEL
Should it become necessary to cancel a reservation, notice should be given to the guestbrother as soon as possible, in order to make the space available to others.
COST
No fee is requested, but offerings are accepted by the guestbrother for the upkeep of the guesthouses. Persons unable to make a financial offering are always welcome.
PREPARING FOR THE NEXT GUESTS
Assistance with various house chores (e.g., vacuuming rooms, dusting, remaking beds) is a way to participate in extending hospitality to the guest(s) who will follow you. It also makes it possible for the brothers to extend hospitality to persons without financial means.
CLIMATE / CLOTHING
- May through October: The climate usually calls for some warmer clothing, such as a sweater or light jacket.
- November through April: These months are winter in Vermont; appropriate clothing is necessary.
- Informal clothing and rugged shoes are desirable most times of the year. Boots or overshoes are necessary in winter.
SMOKING
Out of sensitivity to other guests, including those who will be following you in the guesthouse, smoking is not permitted in the guesthouses or in the other monastery buildings.
PETS
We ask that you not bring pets with you. Please make arrangements for the care of your pet as you plan your retreat time.
