Oregon House as Retreat Center

“I have been doing workshops at retreat centers for almost thirty years on five continents. Oregon House is the best I have ever been to. The setting of the sea coast and forest is deeply nourishing, physically and spiritually. The group room is comfortable, intimate and workable” – Ron Kurtz (founder of Hakomi Institute).

Oregon House’s natural beauty and spiritual energy make it the perfect venue for group retreats. During the past ten years international teachers in the human potential movement, such as Andrew Harvey, Sobonfu Some and John O’Donohue, have held retreats here. Local groups of international spiritual organizations such as Yogananda’s Self Realization Fellowship and Thich Nat Hahn’s Sangha hold regular meditation retreats. Schools and Colleges such as Lewis & Clark College, Portland State University, National College of Natural Medicine and Linn-Benton Community College bring students, teachers and staff for focus retreats. Retreats are held in yoga, qigong, reiki, shamanic journey and breathwork and other healing processes. Being non-aligned, Oregon House has hosted retreats by Methodists, the United Church of Christ and the Santo Daime church. Women’s groups are a regular feature as are corporate and family groups.

Oregon House has been a center for healing for many years. Historically the land was used for healing by Native American Indian medicine women, who used the herbs that grow naturally on the grounds. There is evidence that the land was approached by boat as there is a trail leading up to the land marked by a bent sappling – now a tree which marks the trail to the beach.

Oregon House features a magnificent, carpeted group meeting room on the second floor of the Estate House with incredible ocean view, high chalet-style ceiling and central fireplace. Accommodations can be provided for groups of up to 35 participants. The Estate House kitchen is equipped to cater for groups who may choose to bring a caterer or to self-cater.
