What is a READtreat?
Imagine a long weekend of reading by the lake, connecting over shared stories, and reflecting on what truly matters. READtreat is a retreat for book lovers and their people filled with quiet time, creative activities, themed meals, and a community that values rest, curiosity, and joy.
Our Retreats
Read
Slow down and get lost in a good book. Whether you're diving into an old favorite or exploring something new, our retreats offer quiet, cozy time to read without interruption.
Connect
Share stories, meals, and moments with fellow book lovers of all ages. From book circles to collaborative puzzles, connection is at the heart of the weekend.
Reflect
Step back from the noise and reconnect with yourself. Through journaling, conversation, and calm, our retreats create space to make meaning of what you read and how you live.
Upcoming Reading Retreats
Each retreat is a thoughtfully curated, all-inclusive experience. From the moment you arrive, everything is designed to help you slow down, settle in, and savor the weekend.
Your registration includes cozy lodging, nourishing meals, snacks and drinks, all retreat programming and materials, and a few special surprises along the way. Whether you’re joining us solo, with a friend, or with family, you’ll find everything you need to rest, read, and reconnect. No planning or prep required.
Fall Family Camp: Book Lovers Edition
Part storybook adventure, part cozy camp, READtreat is a long weekend getaway for kids ages 5+ and the grownups who love them.
Set at South Shore Resort in Twin Lake, Michigan, this all-inclusive retreat blends family fun with meaningful connection through themed book adventures, crafts, nature walks, cozy read-alouds, and a special book-to-movie night.
Enjoy three nights of lakeside lodging, delicious meals, and screen-free magic built around the joy of reading together. Bring your favorite books, your curiosity, and someone you love. You’ll leave with shared memories, a few new stories, and a heart full of joy.
Winter READtreat for Adults
This winter, give yourself the gift of stillness. Our adult-only READtreat is a cozy, soul-nourishing weekend designed for readers, introverts, and burned-out helpers who crave connection, reflection, and a little quiet joy.
Held at South Shore Resort in the quiet of winter, you'll enjoy roaring fires, warm meals, long stretches of reading time, and thoughtful conversation with a small circle of book lovers. Whether you come solo or with a friend, this retreat is a chance to unplug, unwind, and reconnect with yourself, with your love of reading, and with what matters most.
Expect curated book lists, cozy touches, and slow, gentle days. No pressure. No agenda. Just rest, reflection, and really good books.
