What we do

In the Northwoods of Wisconsin, our property is on the Peshtigo River. We are located just outside the small town of Crivitz. There are over a dozen waterfalls & lakes in the area. Our facility was once a hotel with about 30 units. Each unit has its one bathroom and kitchenette. There is a common kitchen to share, as well.
We are looking to grow our Wellness Intentional Community. We desire to find practitioners in the healing arts, mindfulness, organic gardening, raising small animals, and other holistic practices. If you are not a practitioner, but enjoy this lifestyle and desire to live in a mindful and healthy community, you would be welcome, as well.
We typically prepare our individual meals together and then eat together. We will do pot lucks for holidays and special events. We focus on wellness and mindfulness. We have a workout room and a wellness room for therapies such as Myofascial Release, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Reiki, sound healing, and other energy practices. We gather for activities, drum circles, bonfires, and anything fun one wants to do. We host wellness retreats, wellness fairs, craft/art shows, and hold a space for the local community to host events.
We practice Qi-gong, yoga, stretching, the Feldenkrais Method, ecstatic dance, contact improvisation dance, meditation,
Our rooms can hold up to two people. One of the apartments can hold 3. We are open to all ages and abilities. We are ecumenical as to religion, or lack thereof, philosophy, sexual orientation, dietary preferences, and, at least in principle, politics. We respect and celebrate each others differences and everyone is expected to have an open mind and willingness to learn and accept new things and ideas.
Here is a description of the feeling we desire to create. We feel the joy of living in community with those desiring to grow as people and spiritual beings. We feel save with everyone we live with. Every day is fun and exciting. We are constantly creating new things and sharing new ideas. We spend much time attending to our bodies, our spirits, our emotions, and nature. We help each other out along their journey. We do not worry about money, food, or lacking anything. Real love is seen and experienced all the time. The place is filled with laughter. We all awaken our innate, natural gifts as healers. We nurse each other back to health. Everyone pursues their passions and the things that truly make them happy. We are very supportive and cooperative community, holding each other accountable to be a good human being. We allow others to speak into each other’s lives to encourage them to be the best version of themselves possible. We encourage the greatest good for the individual, as well as the community.

Our Mission

Provide connection & community, helping each other grow as people & spiritual beings, pursue our passions, and develop our innate healing abilities. Share life together in meals, activities, and laughter. To be mindful and help each other become the best version of themselves. To help support the greatest good for the individual and the community.

LOOKING FOR OUR NEW FAMILY OF CO CREATORS TO JOIN OUR ADVENTURE! Message us to schedule a visit! More about us and our vision below! Read on and we look forward to hearing from you soon if you feel in alignment with our vision! A forming and co-created spiritually-oriented intentional community and homestead nestled in the beautiful woods of Northern Michigan. We are focused on self-awareness, free and open spiritual/consciousness development, sustainable living, self sufficiency, growing organic food, building small energy efficient homes/dwellings, peace, and freedom in all things. We are looking to build a community of like minded souls that share in our vision of creating a harmonious and sustainable way of life that is close to nature and focused on living from the heart/soul. Seeking kind, compassionate, caring, and emotionally mature souls who are good at non violent communication, resolving conflict peacefully, and working together. The community property is well on its way to sustainability already with a fruit orchard with over 18 apple trees and a variety of plum and pear trees. The property also has 2 very large organic gardens covering around 3 acres in total combined size filled with organic healthy vegetables for community self sufficiency, farm market selling, and food preserving (canning). We have plans to build a couple energy efficient green houses in the near future! We are also getting 30-40 chickens for egg production within the next month. Also considering a couple cows or goats for milk. We currently have 3 houses on the homestead property that are available to new community members for rent or work trade or a combination of both! The main community house has potentially 6 bedrooms available as well. We have plans to build multiple small/tiny homes and cabins in the beautiful woods here for members that are energy efficient and off grid with renewable clean energy/electricity and rainwater harvesting. We are working on a community in
