Two Beautiful Ways to Retreat This May
There is something about May in northern Minnesota. The light stretches longer. The lakes begin to shimmer again. The air carries that subtle promise of summer.
If you’ve been craving space: to breathe, move, rest, reconnect…we have two very different, equally beautiful ways to retreat with us this May.
Both are rooted in yoga, nature, and meaningful connection. But the feel of each experience is distinct.
We’re happy to help you find the one that fits where you are right now.
Lake Life Retreat
May 15–17, 2026
at Sugar Lake Lodge in Cohasset, MN
Best for: The one who wants comfort, privacy, and choice.
Lake Life is a relaxed, choose-your-own-adventure weekend. You’ll enjoy yoga classes, meditation, workshops, nourishing meals, and open space to kayak, paddleboard, swim, journal, nap, or simply sit by the water and exhale.
The setting makes this retreat especially appealing.
At Sugar Lake Lodge, you’ll stay in hotel-style rooms and suites with en-suite private bath. Thoughtfully appointed for maximum privacy and comfort. If your nervous system softens knowing you’ll have your own bathroom, quiet sleeping space, and resort-level amenities, this retreat may be calling your name.
There’s structure when you want it and freedom when you need it.
You can engage deeply, or you can simply rest.
It’s spacious. It’s comfortable. It’s lake life at its easiest.
Startlement Retreat
May 28–31, 2026
at Kona Kona Resort on Kabekona Lake in Laporte, MN
Best for: The one craving cozy immersion and shared lakeside living.
Startlement is a three-night, four-day retreat with a slightly deeper rhythm. The days are woven with yoga, meditation, specialty workshops, lakeside sauna time, campfires, and reflective conversation inspired by poetry and seasonal transition.
Here, lodging becomes part of the experience.
At Kona Kona Resort, you’ll stay in beautiful shared cabins with comfortable beds, well-appointed interiors, and stunning lake views throughout the property. The cabins invite connection. Morning coffee on the porch, shared time in sauna + lake plunge, laughter around the campfire, and the simple sweetness of shared retreat living.
It feels intimate and deeply grounding. A little like summer camp, but elevated. You’ll leave knowing the lake, yourself, and each other, more deeply.
