Lazy Pond Bed & Breakfast

Participants in this long weekend intensive retreat will write and relax at the Lazy Pond Bed & Breakfast in Liberty, New York, located about two hours north of New York City, in Sullivan County. 

Sprawling across 12 acres, the Lazy Pond boasts personally groomed gardens, a pond, and a gazebo. Luxuriate in a fresh, complimentary breakfast each morning, as well as a queen bed and private bath, all while receiving expert instruction and the solitude necessary to think and write.
