Madawaska Valley Retreat
Come back to nature
Let the sounds of the bubbling stream and the songs of the birds be the soundtrack to a peaceful sleep, a relaxing treatment, or reconnect with your true self by experiencing equine therapy.
This 64 acre nature retreat was the original landing place for early Canadians in the Madawaska Valley. Originally settled by the Mayhew family, this property had stayed in the same family for more than 120 years.
The property was purchased in late 2018 after being left unused for two decades and so the Madawaska Valley Retreat has been a labour of love to restore the original buildings, while offering the comforts that we expect in todays society.
Stay in the farmhouse as a bnb guest, take a sabbattical and write your book, or work on another creative project as you allow the tranquility of this space to inspire you.
We host regular events such as campfire sharing sessions, firewalking events, yoga and qi gong classes, community acupuncture clinics, weddings and more. Email lisa@meridiancarecenter.com if you would like to enquire about hosting your own event.
The Combermere area provides ample opportunity to explore local hiking, canoe/kayaking, visit gemstone mines, caves, or spend the day at one of the local parks and beaches. The Madawaska Valley offers seasonal events like a weekly farmers market, bi-annual studio tours, wellness events and live music.
