2024 RETREAT DATE:
Oct 27 - Nov 02

This is the land of wild horses, southern charm and the sea.  The drive to the Northern Outer Banks will leave you breathless as your cares disappear as the Atlantic Ocean and Pamlico Sound stretch as far as the eye can see on both sides.  The huge sand dunes will remind you of remote beaches that have gone untouched.  This couples retreat is conducted in one large house with each couple having their own private master suite and shared common space in a luxury home that sits in the remote 4×4 access area of the Northern Outer Banks.  Participants that have a 4 x4 vehicle are welcome to drive out, all other participants will be shuttled in for the week.  Excursions will be planned to enjoy the best of this area.

The financial environment of not having to pay for anything was a huge stress relief, and that is priceless.
