Hope Springs Institute - Inspiring Inner and Global Peace — Local services in West Union

Amazing! First retreat experience this weekend was really special. Mary B and Mary M are wonderful, giving, and gracious facilitators who provided a space where authenticity was celebrated and expression encouraged. I am grateful to have found this place and look forward to future events here. Definitely check this place out if you are looking to connect with yourself, the heart of our Gaia, and other spiritual humans of all faiths.

Additionally, the accommodations are so outstanding. I stayed in the farmhouse which was large yet cozy, and they provided all of the comforts of home down to a bathrobe! Meals courtesy of their dining staff were of the highest quality and boasted such freshness and variety - I've been warned this may have ruined me for other retreat experiences, haha. I'm okay...

I have been attending retreats at Hope Springs for over ten years. It is hands down the finest retreat center in the midwest and beyond. Besides the gorgeous grounds and comfortable ammenities, the atmosphere is that of care and love. The food is spectacular....organic and local. All food preferences are beautifully accomodated. When I am at Hope Springs I feel that I am in the care of the Great Mother, and want for nothing. If you are considering a venue for your mid-west event, do not fail to visit...

Did a silent Meditation/Yoga retreat here, cannot recommend this place enough. Secluded little oasis, very beautiful, great hiking trails. The Food was my favorite part, never been a vegetarian only eater, and can confirm, Chef Blake killed it. Gwen did a great job of running the place and making sure we had everything we need, and Chip, just a ray of sunshine and all around pleasant guy...
