Some
of my readers will know that I like to feature retreats that are off
the tourist trail in remote or less-frequented places. However, you
don't have to go half-way around the world to find such places. Here is a
retreat center near Loveland, Ohio about 20 miles away from Cincinnati
called Grailville. It advertises, "A place of tranquility, spirituality,
transformation and respect for the natural world since 1944." The
scheduled retreats are quite eclectic - everything from aroma yoga to
writing as healing to meditation, all scheduled in April. They also
invite you to plan your own retreat, either alone or with as large a
group as the facilities will handle in their guest cabins.
Now,
more than ever, the world needs haven like Grailville, a sacred place
to experience the beauty of the natural world. A few hours or days at
Grailville can restore and rejuvenate you. We host retreats, programs,
meetings and events. Come with your group or individually to nurture
body, mind and spirit.
Our guests, often spiritual, education,
healing and arts organizations, are accommodated in our five guesthouses
which can host up to 75 overnight. Space for day meetings, workshops,
and special events (such as weddings or reunions) is available for up to
200 people.
We offer programs affirming our authentic selves,
creating space for the sacred, transforming our lives and addressing the
needs of the world. Join us for spiritual retreats and celebrations,
arts workshops, retreats and performances, women-only retreats that
inspire and inform, and hands-on skill building workshops.

The website description goes on to describe the name, Grailville.
We are a center of the Grail in the United States
and further the Grail’s vision of a world of peace, justice and renewal
of the earth, brought about by women working together as catalysts for
change.Grail members are connected by their spirituality. An ecumenical
community of women, the Grail supports and celebrates each other’s
spiritual paths. The Grail is committed to a shared vision of peace in a
global community.

and explore what is available. It says something that they have been in
existence since 1944, probably longer than many of their members' ages.
