Zouky Cabin Retreat

For sleeping, there are two cabins. One holds 22 people and the other holds 10. There is a mixture of full beds, single beds, double beds, and bunk beds. Rooms are usually separated by gender to the best of our ability.

The retreat is September 24–27, 2027, in Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania.

The retreat is limited to 30 guests total.

Your ticket includes lodging, all meals and snacks, all workshops, and carpooling arrangements. Dinner upon arrival on Friday, 3 meals on Saturday and Sunday, and breakfast on Monday. Meals are a group effort: at registration you join a cooking team or the cleanup crew, everything planned so the work stays light.

Yes, and it's one of the fun parts. At registration you pick cooking team or cleanup crew. Each day's crew, menu, and tasks are planned in advance, so everyone does a small share. Recipes and ingredients are laid out ready to go, matched to your comfort level. Cleanup is just as light: rinse your plate, wipe your spot.

No. The tiers are display-only, and the active tier is based on how many people have been approved. Applicants do not select a tier.

Apply through the application form below. If approved, you will receive follow-up questions and payment instructions.

If spots are available, you will hear back within 1 to 3 business days. We have a small team, so please be patient while we review each application.

If the retreat is full, you might not hear from us until a spot becomes available. You are always welcome to message @zoukycabin on Instagram to ask where you are on the waiting list.

The $200 deposit is refundable until January 1, 2027. It is due at booking and secures your spot.

Yes. Three private rooms are available, each for two approved guests, for an additional $150 per person on any tier. You choose the second guest, and that person must also apply and be approved. If you would like a private room, just mention it in the registration form after you are approved.

Yes. After you are approved, the registration form asks about vegan and vegetarian needs, food allergies, and all other dietary restrictions. We plan the recipes and ingredients around the group's needs so everyone has food they can enjoy throughout the weekend.

No, ticket transfers are not allowed because the group is specially curated to maintain a balanced lead-to-follow ratio, and everyone is specifically selected based on what they can bring to the cabin.

The $200 deposit is refundable until January 1, 2027. The full remaining amount is due by Friday, July 23rd, 2027. The remaining balance is refundable until Wednesday, August 25th, 2027, and non-refundable after that date, but the amount paid can be transferred as a credit toward the following year's cabin ticket.
