A retreat for your inner child

A retreat for your inner child *
Where women come to remember who they were before the world told them who to be.
September 18-20, 2026
Lyons, Colorado
Located along the St. Vrain River in the foothills of the Colorado Rockies, 1-hour from Denver International Airport.
THE INVITATION
You are competent and capable and you handle everything. You probably handle too much. And somewhere between all the handling, something in you went quiet.
Not broken. Not burned out in the dramatic sense. Just... muted. Like you can't quite remember the last time you felt genuinely, recklessly, unproductively alive.
This is a weekend for the part of you that used to run through sprinklers and stay up too late and laugh until your stomach hurt. The part that didn't need a reason to feel good.
We're going to the river. We're going to play. We're going to remember.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF…
From the outside, you look successful, together, functioning — but inside you feel like you're running on fumes and going through the motions.
You can't remember the last time you did something just because it was fun. You're craving something real — real connection, real rest, real you — but you're not sure where to even start.
You've been waiting for permission to slow down, to play, to feel something again. Consider this your permission slip.
THE SETTING
Five acres on the St. Vrain River, nestled at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains — red sandstone cliffs, forested trails, the sound of moving water everywhere. Lyons sits at the Gateway to the Rockies, close enough to Denver to get to easily, far enough away to actually leave your life behind.
Eleven private cabins with fireplaces, full kitchens, and living areas sit along the river's edge, plus a gas fire pit and hot tubs.
Sprawling grounds covered in trees.
Multiple spots to sit by the water and do absolutely nothing.
Most guests will have their own private cabin. Shared cabin guests have their own private bedroom — no shared rooms, ever. Everyone gets their own space to exhale.
September in Colorado means the aspens are turning. The golden light is extraordinary. The river is still swimmable. It's the best possible weekend to connect in nature.
THE WEEKEND
We're not going to tell you everything — yet. This full itinerary will be mailed to you because that’s what this is all about.
What we will tell you: we obsess over the details so you don’t have to.
Movement. Stillness. Play. Creative expression. Guided reflection. Nourishment. Connection. Time by the water with nowhere to be. A Little Wild weekend holds all of it.
There will be moments that crack you open in the best way, and moments that feel like exhaling for the first time in years.
WHAT TO EXPECT
You will be fed — really fed. Meals that feel like someone thought about you.
You will be guided but never pushed. Every experience is an invitation, not an obligation.
You will meet women who get it. Who are carrying the same quiet exhaustion, the same hunger for something real.
You will have space that's entirely yours — to rest, to wander, to sit by the river and think about nothing.
You will leave feeling like yourself again. Maybe a version of yourself you forgot existed.
*EVERYTHING* IS INCLUDED
LODGING
Two nights in your cabin, located on 5 acres along the dreamy St. Vrain River. Every cabin has a full kitchen, bathroom, and living area, plus hot tub and fire pit access.
MEALS
All meals are chef-prepared and seasonally-inspired, made with ingredients from our local Colorado farmers, ranchers, and purveyors. We’ll keep you well-nourished from Friday dinner through Sunday morning.
PROGRAMMING
The weekend includes movement, journaling, outdoor activities, games, crafts, workshops, and plenty of free time to rest & relax.
