Review:

Mount Madonna Center is a destination for scenic retreats or conferences, located on mountain-top redwood forest as well as grassy overland spanning 355 acres of land in Northern California. Visitors have the choice of rooms in hotel-style buildings, some of which include shared bathrooms, but no TVs or phones to help disconnect from the external world.

There are also cabins within a forest grove, with heat and electricity, and a separate shower house. During the summer months, you can use a Mount Madonna Center tent or bring your own. Personal retreats give visitors the option to attend the daily yoga classes, walk along the hiking trails, or relax in the hot tub.

There are also 12-week residential service learning programs to help guests learn about living within intentional yoga communities.

Guests can also select one of the other programs of varying durations, such as yoga teacher training, bodywork, and silent retreats. The Kaya Kalpa Wellness Center offers traditional massage, body therapies, and Ayurveda therapies.
