Have you ever felt like:

I don't pray enough.

I can't figure out what to do.

There just too much to do.

Yeah, we've felt that way too!

So, at a Signpost Inn Retreat, prayer is not another task, it’s a restful response to God’s delight in you. We offer authentic—not programmed—relationship and reconnection with God and others.

Signpost Inn Retreats

Are all-inclusive weekends full of grace, prayer, rest, and incredible natural beauty.

Re-engage with God

You don't need to ask God to be present. He already is. Learn grace-filled prayer practices that can re-enliven your connection with Jesus.

Enjoy the Colorado Rockies

Hosted at Starry Peaks Lodge in Westcliffe Colorado, we have over 700 acres of pine trees and gorgeous views. Hike, hammock, or sit on the porch and let God minister to you through beauty.

Discover a new direction

We offer free spiritual direction at every retreat. One-on-one, confidential, and compassionate. Someone to listen to God with you and help you discover the next step.

Disconnect from distraction

There's no hurry, and there's never pressure. We don't have a program, instead we offer friendship and support as you take a break from distraction and attend to God.

Spring Retreat

April 26-29, 2024

Our spring retreat is for anyone beginning to learn the powerful practices of stillness, silence, and solitude. It's the perfect balance of structure, teaching, and freedom.

3 nights of rest

Friday - arrive between 5:30 & 6:30 pm
Monday - depart by 11:00 am
Airport shuttle service to and from the Colorado Springs Airport is available for a $50 fee.

All inclusive

$550 includes delicious home cooked meals, bedding, and towels. It also includes our printed comprehensive support guide for prayer, and a free spiritual direction session. The only thing you need to bring is your heart's longing for rest and reconnection with God (and your toiletries 😄).

Extra support

Our spring retreat includes 5 interactive teaching sessions on prayer, understanding ourselves in light of God's grace, and integrating faithful theology into our practice of prayer.

All of our sessions are optional because building a relationship with God is not about knowing more or doing it "the right way." It's about gently attending to the reality that Jesus is for us with the entirety of his being.

So, whether you want lots of help or just the space and support to spend time with God on your own, you are welcome here!
Please note: Availability is extremely limited, we intentionally keep our retreats small.

Fall Retreat

August 30-September 1, 2024

Our fall retreat is less structured, there is a lot more time set aside for solitude and private prayer. We still offer support, but it's perfect for someone who is comfortable with more freedom.

3 nights of rest

Friday - arrive between 5:30 & 6:30 pm
Monday - depart by 11:00 am
Airport shuttle service to and from the Colorado Springs Airport is available for a  $50 fee.

All inclusive

$550 includes delicious home cooked meals, bedding, and towels. It also includes our printed comprehensive support guide for prayer, and a free spiritual direction session.  The only thing you need to bring is your heart's longing for rest and reconnection with God (and your toiletries 😄).

More freedom but still with support

Our fall retreat includes 2 interactive sessions and lots of time for you to explore, pray, and spend time away with God. We make sure you have everything you need so you can talk–and listen–to God honestly.

Again, all our sessions are optional, so veterans of silence and solitude can go deeper without interference. At the same time, our spiritual director is on-site and available so beginners are never without support and direction.
Please note: Availability is extremely limited, we intentionally keep our retreats small.

Our primary purpose is to encourage you to practice prayer rather than talk about it. Our sessions are therefore optional and mostly practical. For example, we explore what prevents us from praying, how to overcome distractions, and some new and old prayer practices.

But we don't have a program! We believe that prayer is a response to God not a system or method. Simply put, prayer is saying back to God, "I love you too."
What do you believe?
We are grounded in Scripture and believe in the trinitarian God of historic Christianity. Our statement of faith is simply the Nicene Creed.

We are not affiliated with a specific denomination and are an independent and interdenominational Christian ministry. You can read more about us here.
Do I have to leave my phone at home?
No. While we we encourage you to disconnect from the distractions of phones and computers we don't require it. You decide how you are going to spend your time at a retreat, we support you.
