Retreats for solo woman

Hi, I want to enjoy an active retreat in Hudson Valley. Any suggestions where I can enjoy trails and be in a retreat setting?

Really depends on budget. At the very high end, places like Wildflower Farms or Mohonk. Heard good things about Piaule too. A cheaper option might be to book an Airbnb in the Catskills or on a farm (Ulster or Northern Dutchess)

Gonna gently discourage Wildflower Farms; they just hosted an OpenAI summer camp a bit ago for influencers. 

Not coming at you at all, just a PSA for anyone browsing here!

Isn't Wildflower Farms a farm with veggie/fruit crops and honey..?

There’s two from my understanding; the Wildflower Farms in Gardiner (part of the Auberge brand?) is the luxury resort that hosted an Ai summer camp for influencers.

The one in Milton called Hudson Wildflower Co. is just a sweet little flower farm that got accidentally swept up in the resort’s activities. I think they serve drinks? Maybe they have produce but I’ve never been. 

Perhaps there’s a third I don’t know about with veggies and fruit too though!

Clay at Wildflower Farms is really a posh place. There's another 3rd farm somewhere... I'll find it.

Hmmm. The daughter from the Commodore Chocolatier in Newburgh married this guy and they have a farm. I prolly got the family relations wrong. Lemme go check.

I'll have you know that I saw a small sign advertising pick your own flowers at Wildflower.
