RMERC Personal Retreat Cabin Agreement
We are happy you will be doing a personal retreat at RMERC. Please carefully review the information and guidelines on the Personal Retreats page on the website, and contact us before booking if you have questions: https://rmerc.org/personal-retreats.
To use the cabin, all retreatants must
- be members of RMERC at the time of booking, and through the time of the retreat
- have completed two or more silent retreats with durations similar to or greater than the intended booking
- sign an RMERC waiver
Note that the cabin is exclusively for contemplative practice retreats, and the following restrictions apply:
- Only the people on your reservation are allowed at the cabin.
- No pets of any kind are not allowed.
- No fires, smoking, candles, or open flames of any kind, inside or outside.
- No recorded or loud music outside, out of respect for neighbors and other retreatants.
- No recreational drugs or alcohol are permitted.
If a retreat is underway at the center, you may not attend their teachings or events, and the lodge is off limits unless there is an emergency. All of the hiking trails are available to you, but please maintain silence.
Commitments. All yogis must commit to creating a safe and secure environment, and to be exceptionally senstive to the needs of others. The land and all living beings are to be considered sacred.

There is no cleaning, linen, or trash service at the cabin. Before you leave you are responsible to complete a thorough cleaning, using the checklist in the cabin, and take home all food and trash, except you may leave items on the staples list. We have bears: Leaving trash, food, or things dirty could result in a bear breaking in, causing expensive damage that you will be liable for.
Upon your departure, please let us know if we are low on stock items, such as toilet paper.
A cleaning and/or damage fee may be assessed if things are not found to be clean and in good order by the next guest. If when checking in anything is broken or not clean, please let us know immediately.
I agree to all terms and conditions above, and to leave cabin clean with no food or trash.
