Ayahuasca — also known as the tea, the vine, and la purga — is a brew made from the leaves of the Psychotria viridis shrub along with the stalks of the Banisteriopsis caapi vine. This drink was used for spiritual and religious purposes by ancient Amazonian tribes and is still used as a sacred beverage by some religious communities in Brazil and North America, including the Santo Daime. Traditionally, a shaman— an experienced healer who leads Ayahuasca ceremonies — prepares the brew by boiling torn leaves of the Psychotria viridis shrub and stalks of the Banisteriopsis caapi vine in water

We have an outdoor heated shower (which is really cool to shower while looking up at the trees) and portable bathrooms are available until our permanent bathroom facilities are built. We ask that you refrain from bringing any toiletries with fragrance or toxic chemicals. We will provide biodegradable non-toxic soap to shower with.

Unfortunately we are unable to accommodate RVs at this time.

Yachats is located on the Central Oregon Coast and is a two hour drive from the Eugene airport and a three hour drive from the Portland airport, both drives are beautiful.

Our retreats take place on 15 acres of pristine old growth forest in Yachats Oregon, with  the Yachats River running through the middle of the land. This land is sacred and has been dedicated to the sole purpose of plant medicine and healing.
