Nestled in the hills of Shenandoah Valley, the South River Highlands Country Retreat and Heartstone Lodge & Retreat Center are just four miles from Lexington, Virginia and two hours from Washington D.C. Tranquility and clarity of mind envelops this 250-acre rural hideaway. 

Join visionary owner, Antonia Albano as she talks about the alluring destination that regularly attracts international yoga retreats, artist and writer workshops, the Heifitz International Music Institute, individual vacationers seeking something different, wedding groups, and much more.
