About this property

Entire place

A New Kind of Philanthropy

Erik’s Retreat is a nonprofit organization that offers upscale guest accommodations run by young adults with autism. They are concierges. Chefs. Tour guides. All for whom meaningful careers are scarce.

You're part of the solution.

When you stay with us, you’ll be centrally located with wonderful amenities, all while providing living quarters, social opportunities, and significant work for our members. This is charming and spacious with one queen bed, a walk-in closet, a desk, a sitting area, a Keurig, and an elegant European-style 3/4 bath. For each executive room, a single rollaway bed is available upon request. These can comfortably accommodate up to three guests.

Every room offers a Smart TV, Wi-Fi, complimentary coffee and tea, breakfast delivery, and daily housekeeping.

Welcome to Erik's Retreat. Where vision knows no bounds.

COVID-19 Response: Just like you, all of us at Erik’s Ranch & Retreats are working hard to keep everyone comfortable and safe. You can rest assured that our rooms are cleaned spotlessly after check outs, and that our crews are safely masked and gloved. We are taking every precaution to keep our staff, members, and guests at ease during this uncertain time. Here is what we are doing between stays, as a commitment to our guests comfort:

1. Sanitizing all hard surfaces including handles and floors.

2. All bedding—including comforters cleaned prior to each visit.

3. Will provide you with disinfectant on site so you can design your own comfort.
