Oregon House is dedicated to transformational work in a small group context. Our mission is the realization of personal potential, power and uniqueness: the renewal of life as community; and the celebration of diversity and the one creative mystery behind it.
We have many years' experience of hosting and coordinating residential conferences and retreats. At Oregon House we are dedicated to providing a private, safe haven for deep process, focused work and relaxation for your group in a comfortable and intimate setting.
Groups are offered exclusive use of the Estate House, which features a magnificent, carpeted, second floor group meeting room with breathtaking ocean views, high chalet-style ceiling and central fireplace. The dining area and large kitchen, fully equipped to cater for groups of up to 40 people, are also located on this floor.
Groups may then book other apartments for single or shared accommodation, depending on the numbers and requirements of the group. A minimum of 25 people are required for exclusive use of the entire Oregon House property.
International teachers previously hosted include Chloe Goodchild, Andrew Harvey, Catherine Ingram, John O'Donohue, Sobonfu Some and Leslie Temple-Thurston.

"The setting of Oregon House is really special! Spirit Journeys utilizes numerous retreat locations throughout the country. None offer such a dramatic location: buildings perched up on a bluff overlooking 
the ocean with steps that take you down to a secluded beach. The staff at Oregon House were most accommodating in providing lots of little touches that helped make our retreat very successful. The participants praised Oregon House and its staff, many are eager to return to Oregon House for a future retreat or workshop." David Frechter, President, Spirit Journeys, Asheville, NC
