This option may be of interest to someone wishing to spend a few quiet days at the monastery. Those on a personal retreat participate in the daily activities or remain in seclusion. Meals are taken in community or brought to the guest's room.

Meditation instruction and interviews with a teacher may be arranged. It may be possible to stay in the Retreat Hermitage depending on availability (see images).

The cost is $55 per-night. Please note personal retreats are contingent on our schedule.

To request a personal retreat please call the monastery or email kojun@greatvow.org
