Ava Land

 


We curate retreats on 300 acres near the foothills of the Adirondacks in upstate New York. The Adirondack Mountains boast more than 2,000 miles of hiking trails, over 3,000 lakes and ponds and 1,200 miles of rivers. Ava land features pavilions and hammocks, meditation yurts, an open meadow, and a 12,000 square foot event space. If you walk to the edge of the property you will find a peaceful point. We are a preservation space for the natural world, including wetlands and Monarch butterflies. Ava Land is home to our farm and garden. The land lends guests to hours of sun and forest bathing. Restore Forward also invites participants to journeys from more than five continents. The private retreats take people and communities on the seven pathways towards reconciliation: gender and culture, spirit and practice, ritual and ceremony, earth healing, racial healing, trauma and recovery, accountability and forgiveness.

Fish Creek 

 


The beauty of the natural landscape welcomes you from the moment you arrive at Fish Creek, just minutes from Ava Land. A procession of pristine oak trees invites you to explore the breathtaking falls and lush ponds. The 100 foot summit anchors the grounds, which offers miles of natural swimming pools. The retreat features an overlook, fishing, pavilions and ATV trails.
