Our retreat could not have been more serene, joyful and productive! Bailey Farms – all the beauty there and all the myriad of small touches that give the environment its magic – helped our group of 13 have a truly memorable and glorious time. Thank you.

Our group was looking for an intimate, warm-with- character retreat within an hour of New York City in a beautiful setting in which to meet for our very first alumni gathering. The meeting and dining spaces (both inside and out), the hammock, the trails, the bedrooms were all perfect for what we were looking for. We will be adding Bailey Farms to our 5 star list of retreat center locations and expect to be back in the future!
