Rejuvenating and beautiful
The cabins were surprisingly large, very clean and comfortable. The setting is serene, and we appreciated both the beauty of the surrounding nature in the day time as well as the unbelievable star visibility at night! Food was nutritious and tasty with plenty of options. We appreciated the meditation classes offered but also felt free to explore and take the retreat time at our own pace. The atmosphere is very uplifting and welcoming. We'll be back! Thank you to all the very kind staff!

Weekend Retreat at Ratna Ling
Absolutely the best. Serene, quiet, peaceful. I attended a retreat here led by Becky Vollmer and Michael Wilson. It was a truly transformational experience. The cottages are spacious and well stocked with everything you need. The food is so fresh and delicious! The staff is accommodating and welcoming. And nature surrounds you in all of her magnificence.

Forest Bathing with Ben Page
Well-planned, engaging, welcoming, thoughtful, restorative, stimulating experience. Ben was a perfect facilitator. Ratna Ling staff were terrific hosts, the accommodations sweet and comfortable, delicious food, the redwoods were inspiring and the meditation class and temple tour a joy (thanks, George!). Loved watching the gardeners across the street tend to the plants and grounds. Thanks!

Amazing day spent well, great introduction to Budhhist principles
I wanted to find a mindulness / yoga / meditation retreat for my birthday but could not find any 3 days ones in time. I stumbled upon Ratna Ling's 1 day 2nd Saturday retreat (9 am - 5 pm). The drive upto the location was so beautiful and the property is so serene and calming. This was the perfect introduction to Buddhist principles as we enjoyed the meditation practice in the beautiful temple followed by some Kum Ye yoga. We were served a delicious, vegan lunch with some great conversations with fellow patrons. The afternoon is free to choose activities, as I hung out in the library reading. I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere, the staff's friendliness and the ability to be alone with my thoughts. I would love to return for longer retreats in the future.

Beyond my Expectations
I had my first of what I hope to be many, visits to Ratna Ling for a Yoga and Mindful Money retreat. What stunning jewel of a place. The retreat was so lovely and educational. The yoga was fantastic for ALL levels, the gentle education about Ratna Link was wonderful. The accommodations were EXCELLENT. But the food was so good! Every little detail in the vegetarian (lots of GF options) offerings were delicious and plentiful. What an incredible resource we have right here in the Sonoma Redwoods. Looking forward to another retreat here.
