The Sanctuary can be a true vessel to hold our gathering. Upon arrival, you will feel a deep welcoming and appreciation for the sacred Earth. Our hope is that this weekend will bring about a renewal of the sacredness and divinity of all of creation. We believe you will feel deep peacefulness within this container.
With comfortable, communal accommodations; delicious organic buffet-style meals (made with love); and the Lotus Kiva cradled within the earth; SWS provides a curated container for going deep into transformative practices and spiritual ceremony — while discovering the spaciousness within and the sense of community all around.
Shared-access to the magical and historic lands including the meditative Koi Pond and deck, water-features, hiking trails, ancient cottonwood trees, petroglyphs, walking trails, and more.
The campus lies on 150 acres of somewhat hilly terrain. There is a gravel road as well as groomed walking trails between the rooms and the main lodge where meals are served. The road is lit at night for safe passage. It is approximately a 5-minute walk to and from most of the guest rooms and the main lodge.
