What to Expect
Guided by the horses, you and your partner step into honest, somatic connection.
Sessions blend reflection, interaction with the horses, and facilitated dialogue that helps each person speak truthfully and listen with openness.
This is immersive, gentle, and profoundly clarifying.

Your private suite includes an oversized bedroom, living/dining area, luxury kitchenette with Breville appliances, and a sunrise-facing deck with two grills + fire pit. Quiet, private, and designed for restoration.

Why it Works
Horses respond to your nervous system in real time, reflecting tension, emotion, or disconnect with total honesty and zero judgment.
This work is embodied, experiential, and grounding.
As your system settles, clarity comes forward naturally.
Guest Reviews
“Erika is such a kind soul… I had such a powerful breakthrough that has now given me my joy and freedom back. I will always be grateful for the powerful work Erika and her beautiful mustang partner Ana did for me.”
“Amazing experience! Very spiritual! We left that session with a greater understanding of ourselves and a deeper peace than we thought possible. If you have a chance to stay here, do it. It’s well worth the money and you will leave with an experience money can’t buy.”
