OUR SPACES
The Freedom House
Situated on the iconic Underground Railroad trail to freedom, this beautiful Victorian home has been renamed the Freedom House. It has exquisite mahogany woodwork throughout the entire home which is just the beginning of the original character. The Freedom House is perfect for gathering your board of directors, a small team of leaders or a couples getaway. The home features two solariums one, perfumed with fresh, home-grown herbs and spices that you can carry with you into the kitchen for a wholesome meal. The other solarium functions as a yoga and meditation room or reading nook. Laundry facilities are on site as well. Craftsmanship like this is not found in modern homes – with detailing on knobs and hinges you won’t find today. First floor master suite includes a master bath and large three season porch. Two wood burning fireplaces are located on the first floor with wall to ceiling windows and mirrors that are complemented by arched French doors with etched glass that open all rooms and make the space warm and inviting. Upstairs you will find five additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms as well as an additional second story three season screened porch. There are two additional fireplaces on the second floor to keep guests cozy all year long. Wood floors throughout. The Freedom House sits on an acre in the village.
Ava Land
We curate retreats on 300 acres near the foothills of the Adirondacks in upstate New York. The Adirondack Mountains boast more than 2,000 miles of hiking trails, over 3,000 lakes and ponds and 1,200 miles of rivers. Ava land features pavilions and hammocks, meditation yurts, an open meadow, and a 12,000 square foot event space. If you walk to the edge of the property you will find a peaceful point. We are a preservation space for the natural world, including wetlands and Monarch butterflies. Ava Land is home to our farm and garden. The land lends guests to hours of sun and forest bathing. Restore Forward also invites participants to journeys from more than five continents. The private retreats take people and communities on the seven pathways towards reconciliation: gender and culture, spirit and practice, ritual and ceremony, earth healing, racial healing, trauma and recovery, accountability and forgiveness.
Fish Creek
The beauty of the natural landscape welcomes you from the moment you arrive at Fish Creek, just minutes from Ava Land. A procession of pristine oak trees invites you to explore the breathtaking falls and lush ponds. The 100 foot summit anchors the grounds, which offers miles of natural swimming pools. The retreat features an overlook, fishing, pavilions and ATV trails.
