    What motivated you to choose The Neighborhood Hotel for your yoga/wellness retreat? 

    Finding the Neighborhood hotel was very serendipitous. I was looking for a location on the other side of the country and wasn’t finding anything that felt quite right. A good friend of mine suggested The Neighborhood and connected me to the team and I’m so grateful she did! I knew it was the perfect location immediately after speaking to Matthew and hearing about the Grand Beach property. At first it was the proximity to Chicago, as a large part of the Your Inner Babe community lives there, but once I learned more, it was the atmosphere of the hotel in general and the intimate nature of it all that really sold me.

    What were your favorite amenities of The Neighborhood Hotel to meet your retreat needs? 

    The common area was so spacious and comfortable. Our group fit well in the space. It was incredibly easy to rearrange in the ways we needed to for the different planned workshops, activities and meal times. The hanging chairs in the common area were loved by our clients, and were a favorite spot for journaling and sipping hot tea. Having a kitchen area in the common area with a large counter was extremely helpful for prepping and serving meals as well!

    The Fire pits were a perfect place for our group to gather at the end of their sessions, to relax and unwind after a full day of workshops. It’s all so cozy.

    In what ways did The Neighborhood Hotel enhance the experience of your retreat? 

    The grounds are so beautiful and the hotel is super cozy. It felt like our home for the weekend, because the space easily allowed us to do so. Having everyone stay under the same roof and then be able to come together in common areas really kept everyone close and connected throughout their stay. The surrounding areas – all of the trees, and the short walk to the lake – gave people the chance to roam a little and enjoy nature together. 

    What did guests say about their stay at The Neighborhood Hotel?

    Our guests loved the hotel! The cozy, beautifully designed rooms were comfortable and definitely made them feel like they were at their home away from home. They loved being surrounded by nature and the feeling of being disconnected from the rest of the world. 

    Any tips for future retreat hosts?

    The hotel staff was amazing and was easy to communicate with before our stay, helping us to get what we needed before hand. Even though the hotel is close to town, letting them know ahead of time what you’ll need for your specific retreat is recommended.
