Wattle Hollow is a very special place - a beautiful, natural retreat with two large streams running through it. The retreat is used mostly for spiritual getaways and yoga retreats, with occasional special events like ours that fit the vision of Joy, the owner. The accommodations are comfortable but rustic (think summer camp). Rooms are well furnished and cozy, and some of the bathrooms are composting toilets - more than outhouses but less than modern bathrooms. (Joy is very proud of them!) Shower facilities are limited.  You can read all about the history and goings-on at the Hollow on their webpage - www.wattlehollow.com . We're confident that everyone who comes to Wattle Hollow will fall in love with its beauty and peacefulness.

Plan to arrive at XNA before 5:00 pm on Friday, and book a return flight for 3:00 pm or later on Sunday. Other nearby airports are Ft.
