Women live increasingly busy lives, especially if you are a wife and mother. Between work, family, church, and school volunteer activities or running your children across town for their sporting events, dance lessons, and social events, you can lose yourself in everyone else’s lives around you.
Whether it’s a weekend getaway with a few girlfriends or a larger retreat organized through your church, getting away with the girls is important to deeper relationship development. Weekly Bible study can be rich in spiritual content but leave little time for chit-chat. A women’s retreat is a great way to get to know each other more personally.
A women’s retreat with your church group is an excellent way to take a much-needed break from your many responsibilities, enjoy the company of other like-minded women, and get away from your everyday lives.
The mountains of western North Carolina are a great place to hold a women's retreat because of all the area offers. The mountains offer many opportunities for women’s retreats, with one such retreat center being Tekoa Retreats in Hendersonville, NC.
Retreat Locations In The Mountains For Women
There is no better place for a women’s retreat than the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. The mountains of western North Carolina are magical during all seasons of the year. The high mountain peaks and deep, hidden valleys filled with rushing rivers and streams full of trout and cascading waterfalls are breathtaking, wild, and full of life.
The Blue Ridge Parkway travels through the area. Significant portions of the landscape are within protected government lands in national forests, state and local parks, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Small villages with unique characters, such as Bryson City, Sylvia, Cherokee, and Brevard, can be explored, as can Asheville, a center for art, culture, and food. There is an abundance of museums, cultural centers, and area attractions, as well as outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking, and rafting for the more adventurous women in your group.
