Our Retreats

Intentionally designed experiences for couples and singles who are ready to grow, guided by licensed therapists in destinations worth traveling to.

Couples Retreats — Reconnect Where It Counts

A Renovo couples retreat is not a vacation and it is not couples therapy. It is something better than both. It is a carefully designed experience that gives you and your partner the time, space, and expert guidance to actually work on your relationship — while exploring some of the most beautiful destinations in the American West.

Most couples don't struggle because they don't love each other. They struggle because everyday life never gives them a real chance to reconnect. Renovo removes you from the routines, the to-do lists, and the unspoken frustrations — and replaces them with adventure, honest conversation, and the tools to build something stronger.

Led by Susan Pennington, LMFT and Michele Haynes, MA, LMFT, every couples retreat is structured around proven communication frameworks, shared experiences, and genuine connection. You will leave with more than memories — you will leave with a renewed foundation.

Benefits:

  • Expert-led workshops facilitated by licensed marriage and family therapists
  • Small group sizes designed to keep the experience personal and focused
  • Curated destinations chosen to inspire growth and adventure together
  • Structured communication exercises that create real breakthroughs
  • A balance of intentional work and genuine rest and enjoyment
  • A community of like-minded couples investing in their relationships
  • Practical tools you can bring home and use long after the retreat ends

Singles Retreats

You do not need to be in a relationship to invest in your love life. The Renovo Singles Retreat, Lessons in Love, is designed for individuals who are ready to do the deeper work: understanding their patterns, building healthier connections, and showing up differently in their relationships.

Whether you are navigating dating, healing from a past relationship, or simply ready to grow, this retreat meets you exactly where you are. Guided by licensed therapists who specialize in relationships, every day is built around honest self-reflection, practical tools, and real community with people on the same journey.

This is not a self-help seminar. It is an immersive experience in a beautiful destination with a small group of people who are serious about growth and ready to have the kind of conversations that actually change things.

Benefits:

  • Licensed therapist-led sessions focused on love, connection, and self-awareness
  • Small intimate group settings where real relationships are built
