Spring 2027 Watercolor Retreat

from $150.00

Watercolor Retreat: A Serene 3-Day Experience

May 21st-23rd | Goguac Lake in Battle Creek, MI

Price: $700

After two wonderful years of retreats, I am so excited to bring this offering back for a third year, this time with an elevated experience. Each gathering has grown into one of the most meaningful and inspiring experiences I host, and I cannot wait to build on that magic this May.

This two-night watercolor retreat is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with your creativity, and immerse yourself in painting alongside a small group of fellow artists. Set in a stunning, luxurious lakefront home on beautiful Goguac Lake in Battle Creek, Michigan, this retreat blends guided watercolor instruction, outdoor painting with sweeping water views, delicious homemade meals, and plenty of space to relax, reflect, and connect. Beginning Friday evening and wrapping up Sunday morning, you’ll have extra time to settle in, unwind, and savor every moment of a spring weekend by the water.

Whether this is your first retreat or you’ve joined me before, this experience is designed to feel special, inspiring, and thoughtfully curated from the moment you arrive. All artistic levels are welcome, including beginners!

What’s Included

  • Guided Watercolor Workshops: Skill-building lessons and creative exercises designed to take your watercolor practice to the next level.

  • En Plein Air Painting: Experience the joy of painting outdoors with the serene lake as your backdrop.

  • All Meals and Snacks: Fresh, homemade meals and snacks provided by a private cook to keep you fueled and inspired.

  • New Art Materials: Handpicked watercolor supplies for you to use and take home.

  • Lakeside Setting: The retreat takes place in a peaceful lake house with breathtaking views of Lake Goguac.

Accommodations

This retreat will take place in a beautiful, luxurious lakefront home on Lake Goguac in Battle Creek, Michigan, with generous space for everyone to stay and enjoy the full weekend experience. With five spacious bedrooms featuring comfortable queen beds, the house is designed so you can rest and recharge in comfort. Rooms are shared to create a sense of connection and community.

  • Bedrooms: Each bedroom has multiple beds, so guests will share a room with fellow retreat participants. Friends or groups of 2 to 4 attending together are welcome to request to room together.

  • Traveling solo? No problem! I’ll happily pair you with fellow artists, and many guests find these are the friendships that make the weekend special.

If you’re not comfortable with shared accommodations, you are absolutely welcome to arrange your own lodging nearby and still enjoy all retreat activities, meals, and experiences.

Due to the shared bedrooms this will be a female only retreat.

I want everyone to feel at ease and have a relaxing, inspiring time, so if you have any questions about the accommodations, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
