Location

Retreat Forward takes place at Potash Hill in the southern Vermont town of Marlboro (about 12 miles north of the Massachusetts border), between Brattleboro and Wilmington, off Route 9. It is a lovely 560–acre rural property with early 19th century farmhouses and modern buildings, expansive views, fields, private roads, and forests with hiking trails.

The campus buildings range from original farm structures to new award-winning designs. Our activities take place in the Reich Building and Serkin Center for the Performing Arts.
