I never put much stock in “being at the right place at the right time” but feeling differently this year. Eternally grateful for these women and their stories; our “fireside” chats; lazy meals in the cabin; and of course yoga.
We’re back from an amazing long weekend retreat at rivermountain !
Our retreat focused on the intention of Sadhana- the concept of connecting with the truest and deepest part of yourself.
Each of us learned about ourselves and each other and what we do to find our Sadhana.
We enjoyed vinyasa, restorative, and Qi-gong classes as well as guided meditations. We made our own mandalas, took a guided hike, had bonfires and made s’mores, and even had a stargazing tutorial!
Check out our stories today for more pics from the weekend 💚

Just on the other side of fear is love. Sometimes getting to that point is just too difficult for us because we all have our own traumas and a lifetime of bad advice and negative guidance. We can choose to stop, take a breath and work through our egos to find that Love and if we consciously choose to do so the outcome is nothing short of MAGIC, pure fucking MAGIC. Taking time hitting pause on the world and creating a space to be vulnerable let’s love flow in abundance. Our time rivermountain allowed us to be truly present with one another more so than we’ve been able to in a while! Strong communication and Love can conquer all! #plantbased #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #healthylifestyle #consciousness #philly #coaching #relationships #love #breakingpatterns #emotionalintelligence

They take such thoughtful care of everything! River Mountain is a gem. I love true roughing it camping so I wondered if this might not do for me. I was wonderfully proven wrong! To head into the woods without having to think much about food or gear is incredible! The food was excellent, plentiful, and easily gotten. The location is pure magic - woods, a creek, a meadow - so you can see stars, hear tons of birds, take great hikes. and listen to a burbling stream. The staff were terrific - present, resourceful, helpful, then vanishing like magic! It’s complete luxury to have your own bathroom regardless of what style of accommodation you choose plus spotless, private, hot showers! Amazing! Even in the rain this was a tonic - so relaxing and super fun. I can’t wait to go again!

This place is like a meditation hideaway, a nature retreat and an oasis from the noise of life. Such a utopia.....i think those are the best ways to describe this place. My fiance and I love it so much we are making it a regular getaway. The caretakers of property and guests make you feel like family and welcome you with open arms. 10star rating on our part!

Just left and had to write a review right away! What a fantastic getaway for the family. Location is unbelievable, think Nottingham first meets hunger games meets a sci-fi wonderland. We rented a full cabin so we had plenty of space and beds, but next time coming back for the tipis which looked super cool. The team was so nice, fun and helpful. Made us feel at home in the forest. And the BBQ grilling was perfect. Highly recommend all around!
Airbnb Review
Near D.C., Baltimore & Pittsburgh -- Yet a World Away
River Mountain is located between Bedford, Pennsylvania, and Cumberland, Maryland, in the heart of the Allegheny Mountains. Our property is secluded and remote, yet easily accessible from the city.
Your Hosts
This endeavor started a couple years back. We caught ourselves spending too much time at the office and not enough time doing what we love -- being outdoors doing cool things with cool people. Our team is here to deliver a great experience -- comfortable, safe, secure, helpful, welcoming, and unforgettable. We look forward to your visit and hope River Mountain becomes a second home for you, just like it has for us.
