Details of this retreat
The kids are away. The parents and guardians must play…
If someone else is caring for your children at summer camp there will never be a better time to reset and recharge yourself.
This summer parents and guardians experiencing an empty nest can take time to make time for a staycation close to home. Dimensions’ adult summer camp dates also coincide with many of the neighbouring children’s camps’ “Visitors’ Day Weekends”.
Our all-inclusive accommodations and well-being services are elevated, discrete, and informed by a modern sensibility. Chef-prepared, plant-based, and protein diet menus are tailored to enhance each guest’s mind-body connection. Dining takes place in community at our Maple Lodge harvest table. Every stay is preceded by a consult with a member of Dimensions Retreat’s resident health and wellness team who will expertly design how your precious time could be spent on your well-being over the course of your stay with us.
For an additional fee of $250 per hour you can also book your own one-to-one psychotherapy session with one of our resident registered psychotherapists overseen by our Clinical Director, Donald Currie, RP.
