Join me in a writing retreat at Blue Springs Creek Retreats!

After a move from NYC and two years of renovations, my dream of opening a writing and artist retreat came to fruition—in 2022 my husband and I opened Blue Springs Creek Retreats, offering 5-night seasonal retreats for writers from near and far, and we’ve hosted more than 25 successful and often transformative retreats to date. Located just outside of Nashville on five acres of lush nature surrounding a full-flowing creek, our retreats provide a quiet space to write in a beautiful environment with plenty of private areas,
inside and out. While we have seasonal open calls listed on our Insta @bluespringscreekretreats, we are ALWAYS taking applications for future retreats, and we try to find a space for every good fit!

​

Days are free for uninterrupted writing, reflecting, and recharging—
dipping into the crystal-clear spring-fed waters, hiking, forest-bathing, etc.—
with designated time each evening for sharing work and stimulating literary conversation. All facilities are thoughtfully curated with loving care and thought put into every detail. The bottom floor of our home is a private, 2-bedroom boutique apartment, and across from the main house we have a truly unique space: a covered bridge converted into a guest house that accommodates two. Each space for retreaters has a view and a desk, and there is a 500-square-foot shared sunroom with panoramic views open to writers and artists during the day.

​

This intimate program is limited to four participants, open to poets, fiction, and creative non-fiction writers of all levels—and we are now offering
retreats welcoming fine artists! For more info and to apply visit @bluespringcreekretreats on Insta or email cgrotheim@gmail.com. Follow us for upcoming retreats and updates, and plenty of photos.
