Highlands Writing Retreat

Four days in the cool mountain air of the Southern Highlands — write, rest, and find your way back to the page.

Highlands, North Carolina sits at nearly 4,000 feet in the Blue Ridge Mountains — cool even in June, lush with rhododendron, and quiet in a way that makes writing feel possible again. This retreat is held at a private mountain property with sweeping views, communal meals, and enough solitude to hear yourself think.

This is a women-only retreat — a space held specifically for women writers to gather, share their work, and write without reservation.

What's included

• ✦3 nights lodging (double or single room)
• ✦All meals, prepared with local ingredients
• ✦Daily check-ins
• ✦Optional feedback sessions
• ✦Miles of hiking trails

Who this retreat is for

Women writers at any stage — whether you're starting something new, pushing through a difficult middle, or finishing a draft that's been waiting.
