Ceremonies for the 3-month Winter Retreat will take place the weekend of Nov 15-17. Guests are welcome to come for all or part of the Winter Retreat. If you wish to come for the 3-months, please contact office@bluecliffmonastery.org.

For an extended stay, all guests register for their initial two weeks first. If your intention is to stay for the full 90 days, please mention that in the notes of your online registration. After your first full week on retreat here, you may write a request to extend your stay. If you follow the daily schedule of the monastery and are able to live in harmony with the community, there is a high rate of acceptance.
