Where wellness comes naturally

Welcome to Elm and Hearth, a retreat designed for rest, renewal, and connection. We're so glad you're here. The elm tree has long been a symbol of strength, wisdom, and renewal- it's deep roots and expansive canopy remind us to stay grounded while reaching for growth. The hearth, the heart of the home, represents warmth, nourishment, and togetherness. Together, these elements embody the essence of your stay: a place to recharge, find stillness, and reconnect to what truly matters.

Feature amenities include steam shower for 2, radiant floors inside and on patio, AirDoctor air purifier, filtered water, hot tub, steam shower, outdoor shower, putt-putt green, and panoramic barrel sauna. We are located on a dead-end of a gravel road about 0.3 miles off pavement.

Whether you're here to soak in the serenity of nature, embrace the healing warmth of the sauna, or simply pause and breathe, we hope Elm and Hearth provides the peaceful escape you seek.
