Both tents have a comfortable queen sized mattress and are equipped with lighting and a charging station for your phone, ensuring you can stay connected to the outside world if needed.
The brand new bathhouse at both our glamping tents is a beautifully designed structure made with local sawmill wood and repurposed tin. It features a lighted walking path for easy access.
Inside, you will find a hot shower with benches, hooks, and storage areas for your belongings.
The floor is adorned with natural stone, giving it a rustic and natural aesthetic.

Susan is an exceptional person who has created a place where she can feed and nurture the mind, spirit, and body. Due to the pre-work Susan sent me, everything about my experience at the Farm was unique to me and what I needed. I truly appreciate the time and effort she spent getting to know me and my goals for being at the Farm. The setting is picturesque, and the accommodations are peaceful and quiet. Thrive Farm is my Happy Place!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I’ve never been to a retreat before. How do I prepare?
Do things that make you feel more relaxed, such as practicing mindfulness meditation, yoga, or walking in nature. The more you can ease into a relaxed state, the more receptive you are likely to be to the experience once you arrive.
On a more practical level, have weather appropriate clothing (check the forecast for Lafayette GA). For working with horses you will need closed toed shoes that fit snugly and securely on your feet. You will also need to bring some yoga clothes, boots, comfortable walking shoes. Plan to dress in layers as the temperature can fluctuate throughout the day and we’ll be doing indoor and outdoor activities.

A maximum of three people can book a Breakthrough Weekend together at one time.
