  • Rest & Recharge:  Cozy up in our charming accommodations – from woodland cabins to a a variety of other farm properties.  Each space is designed for comfort and reconnecting with nature's rhythm.
  • Adventure Awaits: Hike through lush forests, swim in hidden swimming holes, hike in nearby hills, gather around the campfire for s'mores and stories. Or, simply lose yourself in the pages of a good book while taking a moment for yourself. 

Why Choose Tops'l Farm?

  • Sisterhood of the Wild: Connect with like-minded women, forge new friendships, and create a community of support and laughter.
  • Permission to Play: Give yourself the gift of carefree fun and rediscover the joy of being truly alive.

Staying at Tops'l Farm

For a full FAQ about staying with us, please visit our website FAQ page. 

Lodging.  Lodging options listed for this weekend are in both shared and private options at the Tops'l Farmhouse, Farm Cottage, Woodland Cabins and the Cider House (located .5 miles down the road from Tops'l Farm).  Please review the different options in our pricing page and choose which one might be best for you! Some are private rooms (just you), some are "private shared" (you and someone you know) and some are simply shared just like summer camp! Please reach out if you have any questions on these lodging types.

-Food.   All meals and snacks included. A focus on simple, nourishing meals with seasonal ingredients. Breakfast and lunch will be casual offerings that you can enjoy in a group setting or take to eat quietly somewhere on the farm.  Dinners will be in our event barn space & shared family style.  If you have dietary restrictions please let us know in the notes section on checkout and we will do our best to accommodate. 

- Misc. Alcohol, phone use, etc. We are not enforcing strict rules around these things. Our goal is to help create a space for yourself to truly recharge and reconnect with yourself. We highly encourage you to drop your phone off with us for a period of time. If that brings you severe anxiety, then of course this isn't the right choice for you. Same goes with choosing (or not) to have this time on the farm be spirit-free - we know you will make the best choice for yourself and we will honor that space!

-Cancellation Policy. 

Please note that because all retreats on the farm are by design limited to a tiny number of attendees, our cancellation policy is in place to help guests and us alike work together sharing costs that may arise from unexpected cancellations.

HOLD DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. 

Hold deposits ARE transferable to another attendee found and assigned by original attendee.

Cancellation requests submitted within 30 days of retreat date, 50% of total amount (less deposit) will be refunded.

Within 14 days of your retreat: sorry but no refunds given, no exceptions. If you find yourself in this spot, please find someone to gift it to. 

Any refunds allowed will incur a 3% processing fee.

No one books an experience like this with the intention of cancelling it, but unexpected events do occur, so please consider purchasing travel insurance. By booking a spot on our retreat you assume responsibility for reading and understanding our cancellation policies. Exceptions cannot be made for any reason, including weather,  injury/illness, or personal emergencies. No refunds or credits for failure to attend or failure to complete the retreat, or for arriving late or leaving early.

This retreat was so much better than I even imagined. The farm is beautiful, and every detail was perfect - from the incredible meals, to workshops to thoughtful facilitation. I can't wait to go back again. Highly, highly, highly recommend.
By Molly M for October Petite Pause - Retreat @ Tops'l Farm on Oct 22, 2024
Tops’l was the perfect place for our wedding! Every detail was thought of and we truly could relax and enjoy each moment as could our family and friends. The accommodations are perfect and we couldn’t be happier with the venue and team!

I cannot possibly give Tops’l Farm enough stars—for the beautiful setting, the delicious food (I honestly don’t think I’ve ever had more delicious salmon, but certainly not salmon that was prepared for over 100 people), and most of all a stellar staff that was super thoughtful, fun, responsive, and a joy to interact with. The guests remarked all weekend long on what a perfect experience it was.
By Elizabeth S for Mackenzie & Alexander Wedding Lodging on Jul 16, 2024
Tops'l Farm was a lovely venue for our daughter's wedding! The accommodations were comfortable and the Farmhouse offered a great space for the bridal party to get ready before the wedding. We were comfortable and enjoyed the views overlooking the ceremony space. Thank you for such wonderful hospitality!

I was gifted the "Petit Pause" May 8/9 2024 and knew very little about where I was going or what we would be doing, I just knew that a break sounded well needed. Well, I have to say that it was perfect! Jane's "no pressure" attitude towards relaxation and unplugging made it feel like you could really make the weekend into whatever you felt you most needed. Sneak away from dinner to get some hot tub time in, sure! Skip the yoga because you want to sleep in, sounds great! Lay in the field, read a good book, journal or make some new friends. Enjoy a glass of wine with some delicious appetizers! Dig a little deeper into tarot, human design or foraging, if you'd like. There was the perfect amount of structure and down-time to make the weekend feel full and robust, but also deeply relaxing. I came home feeling like a had the support of 30 new wonderful women friends, some new tools for self-discovery, and had gotten some serious relaxation in. What more could I ask for? Can't wait to come back again. Thanks Jane!
