    Accommodations

    You’ll find our retreat house tucked at the end of a country lane in a small town in rural west Marin county.

    A converted Queen Anne Victorian that was a bed-and-breakfast for many years, the house combines century-old charm with modern comforts and a warm, uplifting atmosphere.

    Most rooms are shared with one other person. Couples always receive a private room. Linens and towels are provided.

    What to Bring

    The changeable weather on the coast can be sunny, foggy, windy, temperate, or even rainy, so bring appropriate warm and cool clothing, including something comfortable for meditation. Also bring walking shoes, a bathrobe, an alarm clock, and slippers or indoor shoes.

    For the workshops, please bring a blank book or journal for taking notes, a few pens, the book God Makes The Rivers To Flow, if you have it, and a book bag to carry your materials.

    Communications

    Cell phone service is not available in Tomales and there is no access to the Internet. There is a telephone in the retreat house which you are welcome to use with a calling card. Cards are available for purchase at the retreat.

    Friends and family can get messages to you by calling the Blue Mountain Center at 707.878.2369 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Pacific Time Monday–Friday, or leaving a message at this number outside office hours.

    The retreat house number should be used only for emergencies: 707.878.2359.

    Health Note

    If you have any symptoms of a cold or flu, in consideration of others’ health who will be attending, we would like to ask that you remain at home rather than come to the retreat.

    Please contact us to re-schedule or cancel your retreat. Should you become ill during the retreat, we have a standard protocol to take care of your needs, and to help keep everyone else healthy.

    Please let Blue Mountain Center staff know of any medical condition(s) that may affect your stay while you are attending a retreat here.

    Your Emergency Contact Number

    At the time of registration, you will be asked to provide the name and telephone number of a person we can contact in case of emergency. We will keep this number on file; it will be kept confidential.

    Cancellation Policy

    If you find you are not able to attend the retreat for any reason, we would be more than happy to refund your retreat fee in full or transfer your payment to another retreat.
