Stay for a few days, or plan ahead for your day visit - they often are booked for private events and you will get the most out of your stay if you are able to deeply relax and take in the full experience. I find the food to be nourishing and usually delicious. If seeing other people nude in the hot springs weirds you out, this may not be the place for you, and that's ok! The nudity is respectful, non-sexualized, and I have always felt 100% safe being nude her as a woman. Your nervous system will benefit from the deep peace, wonderful yoga/massage experiences available, and the respectful community. So grateful this precious haven has been rebuilt so beautifully after the fires several years back.

Surprised to see some poor reviews here. My partner and I booked a one night stay this past weekend…read more(Jan 2026) and had a lovely relaxing stay. A few things: 1. This is not the type of place you can just roll up to, you should def plan your stay in advance and read the website and FAQs before going. 2. Perhaps we hit it on a good weekend or during the low season, but fortunately, it was not super crowded for us. If you have the opportunity to visit in the evening, that prob would be best though as there weren't more than 2-3 other people in the sauna or hot spring at any time them. 3. I saw complaints about the food not being good - again, maybe we hit it on an atypical weekend, but for vegetarian and gluten free meals, the food was pretty good! For dinner, we enjoyed a pretty nice lasagna with some amazing, fresh greens for salad and the following morning we had frittata, oatmeal, fresh fruit, and hard-boiled eggs. Also, if you find the food bland, there were plenty of hot sauces, condiments, dressings, etc to season it to your taste. 4. I think a lot of people have the expectation that this is a luxury spa resort... it's not. You're not getting gourmet buffets or fancy lodging and beds. It's def pretty rustic, but we found our stay to be comfortable and the amenities to be quite sufficient and most of all, it offered the peace and respite from the real world that we were seeking.

I contacted the owners of Rushing River from my home in Georgia when I saw their listing on a…read morerental site. My young adult children were hiking the PCT and one had blisters and needed to stop until my husband and I arrived 48 hours later, but with closed roads due to fire rebuilding and no Ubers or Lyfts in service in this remote area with no cell service, I asked Teresa if they were able to provide transportation if I rented a room for my youngest. Despite being a complete stranger, Teresa and Michael made calls to the nearby park rangers to determine how to access my son as if I were a member of their family, even though my children's trailhead was at Olallie Lake almost two hours away. As it turned out, the older siblings stayed and camped with my youngest due instead due to a snow storm which preventing hiking further south as they had planned, but my family was so appreciative that this couple was willing to go out of their way to help, so we made it a point to travel to Rushing River Retreat to meet these wonderful humans. Our family of five adults stayed for two nights in three rooms: my husband and I stayed in the queen room with the balcony inside the home, my boys shared one exterior queen room and my daughter had a second exterior queen room (these exterior rooms are privately accessed outside and they share an exterior and/or interior bathroom available to all of the guests who stay in exterior rooms.) Teresa and Michael open their home up to their guests, so we sat on the couch and chairs in the family room next to the kitchen and enjoyed the view through the picture window of the beautiful rushing river. My sons went swimming and my husband enjoyed fishing. It was lovely after our travels to relax in the hot tub. We are used to renting private spaces through Airbnb when the five of us travel together, but the best thing about this stay was sharing the common areas and getting to know Teresa and Michael. As so many other guests have commented on multiple review sites, this couple welcomes you into their home and shares their lives with you very generously. My young adult children are at the point in their lives where they're figuring out what they want to do for a vocation, so they were very interested in hearing about the varied experiences enjoyed by these gifted and creative entrepreneurs. We spent two weeks in Oregon, and much of our trip had to be reworked due to the snowstorm that changed the hiking plans, and Teresa and Michael gave us wonderful recommendations that guided our entire trip. We even checked in with them after we left the property, and they continued to guide us as we explored their home state. We enjoyed two delicious breakfasts during our stay, and Teresa even shared some of her leftover dinner with my oldest son who was still hungry when the dinner we prepared for the family left him feeling hungry for more! This was a wonderful place to relax, and there are plenty of places on the property to enjoy privately, as one couple did during our stay who we only saw when they filled their plates at breakfast. Then there were others, including one solo traveler who used one of the glamping spaces, who joined us inside at meal time and played board games with us. Whether you want to enjoy a relaxing private space or connect with a friendly and engaging couple, Rushing River is a wonderful place to retreat, relax and restore. It is definitely more than a place to lay your head; Teresa and Michael create an environment that restores your soul.

Each one has built on the next and has become more fine-tuned each time. This divinely inspired event is thoughtfully curated based on specific energies that are coming forth and personalized to each of the individuals participating. This retreat is something I look forward to for many reasons. The private accommodations exclusively booked for a small group have access to hot mineral springs with healing properties. Activities and tools that enable openings for advancements. There is a perfect balance of self reflection or alone time and group time. Visits to known energy centers such as Joshua Tree, Integratron, Giant Rock, and Wind Walkers' Medicine Wheel provide connection to ancient wisdom and allow us to tap into knowledge beyond our human experience. At each retreat I've met incredible people that I still feel connected to regardless of our physical distance. After every retreat, I leave feeling transformed, transcendent, connected, and energetically at a higher frequency and vibration. I recommend this gift to individuals seeking breakthroughs and tools to create the life you desire. Make sure to book an extra night to allow time to absorb and integrate!

This review is based on a facial service I had with Haven Day Spa on NYE. I can't seem to forget…read morethe details, so consider this my "therapy". I had a $100 certificate as a gift from a March birthday. I stated to the woman who answered the phone that I had this certificate, made my reservation, and arrived on time. I have never had a facial before, so not knowing what to expect, I requested the Express Facial (a $65 service value). My appointment started late, because the receptionist (?) was busy upselling lotions to another client and allowed her to use the remainder of the gift certificate she tendered for payment. More on this later. One of the reasons I wanted to try a facial is because I have a few very large and noticeable blackheads on my face that I would love to have extracted. Do they perform this service? According to their website, absolutely. The person giving me a facial told me it wasn't necessary. Even after looking through a magnifier. Okaayy. Fast forward to the time for payment. I surrendered my gift certificate upon checking in for my appointment. Remember: GC = $100, service = $65. I paid the clinician a cash tip. When I went to the counter to check out for services rendered, the receptionist said "that will be it then!" I was a little surprised, so I took the bait of the upsell scheme, a $30 product, hoping she would do the right thing and use the remainder of the GC amount. Instead she asked for further payment. I left feeling as though this business must need the money more than I did, so it felt fine. As I have sat with it for a month and a half, it no longer feels that way. Should I have said something then? Absolutely, yes I should have. I didn't and I own it. $35 is not going to make or break me. The reason for this review? To put my experience out there in hopes it gets read and doesn't happen to any one else....especially if $35 is a vital part of a budget. The two stars are the clinician. I am still not sure what to expect with a facial.
