Northern
California Retreat Centers and Conference Centers |
All About Retreats was founded in 1998 in Northern California. The abundance of retreat centers, world-class wineries, redwood forests and miles of trails for hikers and mountain bikers is even more attractive with it's moderate climate all year round.
Whether your taste is for comfortable cabins in the
woods, a Wine Country bed and breakfast setting, or
a casual retreat in the coastal hills where..."The
fog comes on little cat feet... sits looking over harbor
and city on silent haunches, then moves on...."*
...you'll find it here, now.
