CAMPUS SPACES

Welcome to Cortes Island, the land that holds us as we gather.

Where the Salish Sea meets ancient cedars and lush forests, and the rhythm of the tides sets the pace. Soak in ocean views from the hot tubs and sauna, wander through breathtaking gardens, and savor a West Coast-inspired dining experience that nourishes both body and spirit.

We warmly invite you to explore the trails, gardens, beaches, and vibrant common spaces. Advanced bookings are required to attend programming and meals..

Gateway & Store

Home to the Hollyhock reception and store, Gateway is where you check in and get settled into your Hollyhock experience.

At Hollyhock Store, every product reflects our commitment to ethical sourcing and sustainability. We prioritize locally crafted and ecologically responsible materials, with many sourced from Cortes Island, Quadra Island and Vancouver Island. We also support women’s collectives in underprivileged regions worldwide. Our pricing ensures fair wages and high-quality ingredients, aligning with our values of community empowerment and environmental care.

The Garden

The Hollyhock garden, with its towering blooms, delighted buzzing bees, and an abundance of ingredients for the kitchen, has earned its reputation as both a place of awe-inspiring beauty and practical abundance.

Lovingly crafted by master gardeners, floral arrangements from this vibrant sanctuary grace the campus, thoughtfully prepared for each program block.

The Lodge

As the heartbeat of campus, the Lodge is a central gathering space where we break bread and connect over conversations. Eat and enjoy in wonderful company amidst a stunning ocean view of the Salish Sea.

Sanctuary & Bodywork

Tucked away, past the apple orchard you will find Sanctuary and the Bodywork Studio. The handcrafted cob Sanctuary, with quartz-laden foundation offers the perfect space for morning meditations.
