Grail Springs Retreat for Wellbeing - Bancroft, Ontario

My daughter and I have just completed 3 magical days at Grail Springs. It was a transformative experience for each of us. ||We found Grail Springs to be an outstanding place for soul nourishment. It is thoughtful, caring and filled with peace and light. It is such a beautiful place. The Great Hall is outstanding for its beauty and comfort, the decks look out over a serene lake, and the individual rooms decorated lovingly with attention to all our possible needs. The hiking trails filled with surprises and meditation spots along the way. The staff are very kind and attentive.||We really enjoyed the yoga in the morning and the reflection/meditation at the end of the day. We had a number of wonderful treatments. ||People come back year after year, one woman had been coming for 19 years from Germany. Another had been coming 12 years from Ottawa. As the woman from Germany said, she comes each year to "refill her cup".||This is such a remarkable example of light manifested in the world. ||Thank You Grail Springs

I spent three days at Gray Springs, and it was nothing short of wonderful. The food was absolutely amazing — fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The entire experience felt deeply grounding and calming, allowing me to truly slow down and enjoy the moment. The atmosphere is peaceful, the surroundings are beautiful, and every detail seems thoughtfully put together.

If you’re looking for a place to recharge, enjoy delicious food, and connect with a sense of calm, Gray Springs is the perfect escape. I left feeling refreshed, centered, and already looking forward to my next visit.

Namaste ! I just came back from a 3 night solo trip to the Grail. As I sit in my office now reflecting on all the memories I have I want to express my gratitude for everyone who made me feel like part of a family. I want to thank everyone from the front staff Amanda and Adelka went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Thank you to your energy workers aka healers Laura, Carol, Tonya, Jason and the chakra balancer I apologize I did not catch her name but you all left an indelible footprint in my soul. I also had a very powerful thai yoga massage with Sandy. Sandy is very talented and intuitive something I would highly suggest you do if you have the chance.|From hiking the trails to canoeing on the non motorized lake to the incredible food you serve made with love I will not forget the grail. I feel truly at home here in fact so much so I booked 2 more visits in the next 2 months. The people who work here for the most part I would say over 90% actually love what they do for work and want to be here which is rare in todays world. Getting off the hamster wheel in life for a few days and letting go of Samsara opening up my crown chakra has really allowed me to come into my authentic power. I am grateful for the facilitators who have helped guide me and providing a sanctuary for me to practice this mindfulness. I want to thank the owner who I have not met yet as they were away this weekend for creating a space full of love and white light. Namaste! and you see you soon !

Our First Stay at Grail Springs – A Nourishing Retreat for Body and Soul

My husband and I just returned from our first visit to the Grail Springs Retreat for Wellbeing, and it was a truly wonderful experience. We spent two peaceful nights surrounded by natural beauty and serenity.

From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how beautifully the property is cared for — the rooms, the main building, the walking trails, and the surrounding grounds all reflect a deep respect for both nature and guests. Every detail felt intentional and nurturing.

The staff were exceptional: kind, professional, and knowledgeable, always ready to assist with a warm smile. As a Holistic Nutritionist, I especially appreciated the meals — they were nourishing, flavourful, and clearly prepared with thought and care.

This retreat was exactly what we needed to relax, recharge, and reconnect. We are already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you, Grail Springs, for creating such a sacred and healing space. Shawn Nisbet Aurora, ON

It’s always such a joy to escape the busy world and spend time at Grail Springs. The food is delicious, and the treatments are absolutely wonderful. A couple of small suggestions that could make the experience even better: it would be nice if treatment times were spaced out a little more during the summer so guests can enjoy the beautiful facilities in between, and paddle boats would be a great addition for those who don’t canoe or paddleboard. While the stay and spa treatments are on the pricier side, the overall experience and setting make it a truly special and restorative place.

A big thank you to the lovely ladies who made the experience even more wonderful: Amanda (manager at the front desk), Ashley, Cynthia, and in the spa; Joey, Jenn P, Sandy, La Verne, and Sumiko. Your warmth and care really stood out!

I enjoyed four glorious days at Grail Springs. The location is spectacular with amazing views of the lake. If you need to recharge and relax this is the place to go to. The staff are kind and professional, the plant-based meals are superb and the spa treatments are excellent. I will go back!
