Take a week - or even four - this winter to disappear into a fire-warmed Salmon Creek cabin in the coastal redwoods with the piles of books you’ve been intending to read and/or the project you’ve been planning to write.

Up to you, spend the entire time in complete and utter solitude, or engage with the improvised community of other readers/writers for a communal meal, an improvised writing workshop, readings, and a chance to get and give feedback on each others work.

The communal kitchen and dining room at Dawn Cabin will be available to the group for designated evening hours, the library at Orchard cabin will be open for limited hours on the first day to peruse and check out books, and the trail down to the creek, the outdoor kitchen, and the dance deck will be available for communal use any time.
