BEFORE YOU GO
The experience, in more detail
Choose a location and a date
LIFE lists Sundance, San Diego, Asheville, Texas Hill Country and St. Augustine as retreat destinations. The current calendar has a September 30–October 3, 2026 retreat in Sundance. Texas and St. Augustine have no retreat planned; future dates for the other destinations are not listed. In Sundance, couples stay in a private bedroom and bathroom suite in a mountain cabin.
Changing your dates
The published terms allow payments to move to another available retreat within 12 months when a change is requested at least 21 days ahead. A change inside 21 days carries a $499 fee. This makes the booking date and travel commitments worth coordinating before you pay.
Cancellation is a separate policy
A permanent cancellation more than 30 days before the retreat is refundable less $299. Within 30 days, LIFE describes case-by-case charges that increase closer to arrival. Ask for the terms attached to your specific booking, especially if you are arranging flights or taking time off work.
