Cabins and Monkalows at Ananada Meditation Retreat

Tucked into the forest near Nevada City, California is a 72 acre retreat center that has been fostering meditation for nearly 50 years. Ananda Meditation Retreat not only has abundant gardens and ponds for quiet reflection, but you can also stay in several pretty, little cabins and even meditate in the center’s underground Babaji Cave.

The Swami Dome is for Kriyabans only, but the Kindness, Krishna and Patience cabins are just as quiet and basic. The Renunciation is a rustic yurt-style cabin that is $75 per night. It has a small kitchen and access to the retreat center’s shower house.
