Welcome to The Retreat House

A Place to Reconnect with Yourself and Nature.

Whether you're planning a yoga retreat, a team building experience or a workshop for your students, our space is designed to accommodate all kinds of one-day retreats.

See For Yourself…

Let Nature Nourish You.

In today’s fast-paced world, retreating or learning in nature is more important than ever - it gives us the chance to slow down, be intentional, and focus on what truly matters.

Thanks to its unique location and surroundings, our Retreat House promotes well-being and the right environment to learn, making it the perfect setting for you to bring your transformative one-day events to life.

Embracing Nature

When we built the Retreat House in 2016, we made sure that the beauty of nature was always at the forefront; the central gathering space is filled with natural light, with panoramic views of Lookout Mountain through floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, creating the perfect setting for your gathering.

Enjoy All the Retreat House Has to Offer…

Since we built our Retreat House in 2016, it has been used for various retreats, team-building activities, training sessions, classes, workshops, and more. 

We are not a wedding or a party venue; instead, we focus on hosting small events that revolve around wellbeing, human connection, relaxation and healing through nature.

So if you have been brainstorming a workshop, a business or team outing, or a one-day retreat.

Reach out to us today to plan your day between the mountain and the creek.

Thoughts From Our Clients

  • “We had our mission retreat at Rising Fawn Gardens again this year, our team's favorite place to be together. We enjoyed the outdoors, hiking, exploring the creek, our yoga class, and the fellowship, just being away from our phones for a while and in nature together. It is absolutely breathtaking and I love bringing new people out and seeing the look on their face when we pull into the Gardens. Karen and Amanda go out of their way to make you feel right at home!”

    -Sherry Campbell & Team at Welcome Home

  • “Thank you for providing a refuge for renewal, restoration, and healing. What a beautiful community and retreat house, thank you for the blessing of your hospitality.”

     - Morgan Gilley

  • “I would give them 10 stars if I could! Our family went on a Tree Identification hike and every one of us loved it. We all learned something and stayed interested and engaged the whole two hours.”
