The Soul Institute

Fantastic time! Came for a weekend retreat with my mum - fit in lots of yoga and meditation time. Nice to get away from the city and loud noises.. the food was absolutely delicious (all vegan and nutritious) and Jen was a great host/teacher. Overall wonderful weekend and would recommend 100%. :)

Very nice place for camping beginner

Great getaway- we stayed in the fox cabin and enjoyed every minute of our stay! The wood burning stove was the perfect touch to the cozy cabin! The main house facilities are incredibly clean, modern and open for all your needs..our favorite part was the walk on The Art trail - we will be going back! Highly recommended for a couple but also families- disconnect and enjoy natures beauty Thank you soul Institute- we didn't want to leave!

Although we are not yoga enthusiasts at all, glamping at this lovely location was such a treat. The tents, the beds, the woodstove, the cozy lighting, the paths through the trees...just beautiful. Highly recommended. Great place to tour from to places like Port Carling, Bala, Gravenhurst, Bracebridge.

Just returned from a magical weekend at Pura Vida. This was my first yoga retreat (okay, it was the Yoga & Wine Retreat") and as a newbie to yoga

I recently attended The Joy Retreat at The Soul Institute and it was absolutely life changing! I would highly recommend their amazing sessions, retreats, beautiful trails and forest boutique. The accommodation are incredible and the food is marvelous!

If you want to disconnect from the world and connect with nature, this is the place. Jenn and Liz take special care of their guests, especially on a retreat, leaving your mind and soul relaxed, and your body nourished with delicious vegan meals.

Beautiful glamping retreat, the cabins are adorable and excellently maintained. The property was just magical, especially the art trail.

I attended the Fire and Ice retreat on Saturday, February 8, 2020 with a friend and had an amazing experience. This retreat blew me away. We connected to nature in a beautiful location, practiced meditation, yoga and went snowshoeing. The lunch was delicious, the facilities were beautiful and the owner and retreat guide was a treasure. We stayed in the Owl cottage which was super cute. It was uninsulated, but we had a hot water bottle, and kept the fire going all night. With the extra blankets in the room, I was toasty warm to sleep, despite the cold night. It was fun and invigorating. Oh, and can I mention again how clean everything was? I highly recommend the facilities at Pura Vida Soul Institute.

Had our first Glamping in Canada (November 2021). It was an amazing experience. We learned on how to keep the wood stove all night & it was snowing in the morning.
