Our Story
Greetings! My name is Corinna. Along with my husband Greg, and son, Dakota, we are pleased to welcome you to Ravenwood.
Ravenwood Retreats grew from over 18 years of experience working with the transformative powers of nature, in a beautiful forest named Ravenwood.
The first time I visited Ravenwood, I sat awestruck with my face glued to the car window. Snow capped Mount H’Kusam stood like an imposing sentinel watching over the Valley. Crystal-clear Salmon River ambled through the valley. And Forests, ancient groves of moss-covered Tree Kin bigger than any I had ever seen took my breath away. We turned off the junction, drove down the driveway, and entered a different world. One in which wildness still existed.
Today, it is our pleasure to share the beauty and transformative powers of Ravenwood with you.
​
Our Invitation
Enter the living story of Ravenwood through Corinna’s book Ravenwood: The Healing Forest — Indigenous Wisdom, Life-Threatening Illness, and Awakening the Heart. Come walk the forest paths, join us for a transformative nature retreat, attend one of our gatherings or guided tours, or stay for a personal retreat in the cozy Raven’s Nest Skoolie or Forest Cabin.
​
While you are here, we invite you to slow down and reconnect with the rhythms of the land. Wander the forest trails, spend time among our vegetable, herb, and medicinal gardens, and experience the quiet nourishment of food and medicine growing from the soil. You may also choose to receive a healing session with Corinna as your guide, or explore our ethically harvested, wild-crafted herbal products.
Whether you come seeking rest, healing, learning, or inspiration, Ravenwood offers a place to reconnect—with nature, with community, and with the wisdom of the land.
Ravenwood Retreats is located in the Sayward Valley, on Vancouver Island, on 40 acres of property bordering the
Salmon River.
We resepctfully acknowledge that Ravenwood is in the unceded traditional territory of the Laich-kwil-tach people.
