Retreats in the Northeast US

A sunny view of a Northeast coastal retreat with a white lighthouse and shingled beach houses next to the calm blue water.

America gets its outdoors — and indoors — on in the Northeast. At Road Scholar Retreats from Maine to Pennsylvania, adventurers’ curious spirits are as stirred by hiking a snippet of the Appalachian Trail as by shaping clay at a potter’s wheel in central Massachusetts’ Pioneer Valley. And after invigorating discoveries in a variety of idyllic settings, the learning and camaraderie don’t stop. A porch-front rocking chair is the perfect spot to rewind stories of a day’s adventures.
