I am currently opening a quilting retreat. I purchased a retired church that was built in 1870- steeple/ bell in the tower and all. I will be able to accommodate 8 quilters in two bedrooms of 4 guests each. The work room is quite generous in size with 8 foot tables and wheeled task chairs. My building is 100% ADA complaint with entrance ramp, roll in shower with seat, hand rails around the toilet, wheelchair space around the beds etc. My retreat will be self directed in that it will be up to 8 friends. They will prepare their own meals. I have a fully equipped kitchen. There are several restaurants locally as well as a grocery store. One restaurant has delivery available. All linens are provided. My cost is $35 per night per quilter. This is the same rate as another one that is within my demographic area. The other one is not fully ADA compliant, only houses 5 quilters and is horrible to get into in bad weather. I will open in September (fingers crossed). I enjoy going to similar retreats because the more organized ones usually have set meal times and I don't always like to stop just to eat. Also they always seem to be hosted on weekends that I have other plans.
