• The Labyrinth is a gorgeous haven in a natural, hemlock-ring cathedral where we practice a simple walking meditation. 
• Trails for guided nature walks through woods, wetlands, waterfalls, and tree farms.
• Our barn kitchen and lounge offer delicious snacks and beverages throughout the day as well a quiet space to rest and relax between equine experiences.
• The Rings open their home to invited guests for special meals and fireside drinks by special arrangement. 
• Our fire pit is a lovely after-hours gathering spot.
• Our expansive lawn is ideal for outdoor games.
• Hammocks are hung under trees for guests who choose a brief rest between meetings.

Find a sense of connection.  Our ancient land is part of the Blue Ridge Mountains, home to the Cherokee, and a center of spiritual renewal for generations.

Retreat from the daily grind.  Step onto the property, and feel the outside world’s demands slip away….  And, yet, within a 10-minute drive, you’ll find a 5-star inn, superb restaurants, upscale and quaint shopping, medical and emergency services, as well as groceries and business services.

Relax in nature, with comfort.  We have designed our buildings with an eye for capturing the spirit of Appalachia in an elegant, comfortable, and modern setting.  Our facilities are state-of-the-art, complemented by antique furnishings with cozy cushions and throws.  This is back-to-nature, but it is not ‘roughing it.’

We are the premier equine coaching facility in the American Southeast.  Our covered arena is a place of architectural wonder! In the arena, on the ground with a horse, you will experience the power of connecting with these magnificent animals.  Doing ground work with horses opens up a myriad of opportunities for self-awareness, problem-solving, and teamwork.  And, it’s fun!
