Something BIG is happening at The Refuge! 👀
And this is Step One.
After many years in the house, the piano made its grand exit. 🎹 Getting it out was quite the production, but clearing this space is the first step toward something new at The Refuge.
What are we making room for? 🤔
We’re not telling you just yet… but we think our crafting guests are going to be pretty excited about what’s coming. ❤️✂️🧵
One piano out. One big change on the way.
Stay tuned for Step Two!

🍽️ The heart of every great retreat isn't just the craft room... it's the kitchen. ❤️

Some of the sweetest retreat memories happen around the table—sharing morning coffee, laughing over dinner, celebrating finished projects, and enjoying late-night snacks with friends.

At The Refuge, we've created a kitchen that's fully equipped for your group, so cooking together is easy, gathering is natural, and making memories comes effortlessly. From crockpots and charcuterie boards to coffee and common spices, we've thought of the little things so you can focus on what matters most: connecting with the people you came with.
