PLEASE READ BEFORE VISITING:
We are very happy to have you visit. We love to see our old friends and to make new ones. We are still working on our schedule of events for 2026. If you wish to be notified about our retreats and other news, you can add yourself to our mailing list on our website. If that doesn’t work, you can email us and we will add you.
We do not have a staff member whose only job is to give tours. The Ridgely staff all have many other responsibilities here at the retreat. We live in the Manor House, the focus of any tour. For that reason it is not possible to give yourself a tour. All tours need to be scheduled at least 2 days in advance by calling (845) 687-4574. We will find a mutually convenient time. Once a time is set, please arrive promptly.
If you do not wish to take a tour, the shrine and grounds are open from 6am-7pm almost every day. The one exception is Sunday, when we close at 5pm.
If you wish to book an overnight stay, you must schedule at least 5 days in advance by phone or email. Please be aware that we don’t allow children under the age of 17 to stay overnight at the retreat.
