The experience here used to be so much better before the pandemic and before they built the new building. I was excited to see the new meditation Hall but really disappointed to see it packed to the gills with attendees sitting in hard chairs. Gone were the blankets and cushions from the old days. There were a few people sitting on the floor in front but the majority were in very hard chairs. It felt like a very uncomfortable church. It used to be a very authentic place to learn about meditation, but it just feels like a huge cash grab now. They had 200 attendees at a one-day retreat recently, each paying $200 to spend a good portion of the day walking around the parking lot with 200 people doing walking meditation. That is $40,000 of revenue for what looked like something from an undead movie. Thank you for the old days when things were authentic and not overpriced and over commercialized.

Excellent retreat and instruction program. Shifted my practice and grounded me. My level of inner quit has significantly improved. Learned walking meditation technique. Great local for spending time in nature. Meals were outstanding.

The residential retreat was exceptional- the teachers were incredibly talented learning facilitators and the retreat organizers are impeccable. And I can’t say enough about the food. If you’ve been thinking about a residential meditation retreat, you should try spirit rock.

Spirit Rock is a great place to center yourself. Whether for a day program or a week long silent meditation retreat you’ll find what you need on their beautiful property. They have amazing food as well for those on their silent retreats!

A wonderful week-long retreat experience. Dorms are comfortable, walking trails are plentiful and the food is exceptional! With so many wise teachers and communities practicing here, there is great energy and space for quiet and deepening presence.
