What time should I arrive at the monastery for an Introductory Retreat?
Please plan to arrive between 1:30 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. unless you have made other arrangements with the Guestmaster.

Can I share a room with my spouse or partner? Our Guesthouse does not have rooms for couples.

What airports are closest to the Abbey?
There are airports in Redding, CA (60 miles from Mount Shasta) and Medford, OR (89 miles from Mount Shasta). Please arrange to make bus connections from these towns to Weed, where we can pick you up at a pre-arranged time. Car rental service for the roundtrip is available at both airports.  

Can we talk at meals?
During retreats our meals are eaten in silence. During non-retreat times there are both formal (silent) and informal (talking) meals.
