Sweetwater Hill is for you if:

  • Quiet meeting space in a modern barn ignites your creativity.
  • The rural sounds of birds and chickens calling invite you to slow down.
  • Rolling hills, open sky, and wooded paths make your eyes smile.

 

Come here if you want:

  • To be off the beaten path, but close to amenities and nightlife in nearby cities such as Amherst, Holyoke, Greenfield, Northampton, and Springfield.
  • A getaway close to Boston, Hartford, Worcester, or New York.
  • Casual, family-style, and community vibes.

Sweetwater is not a good fit if you are:

  • Not working for or supporting social change through educational, cultural, or movement work.
  • Seeking total solitude away from any other people.
  • Looking for a full-service firm that offers event planning and services for hire.

Is Sweetwater Hill for You?

Do you long for space to dig into strategic questions with your people? Are you looking to learn new skills alongside fellow changemakers? Do you just need to be somewhere you feel welcome and accepted, where you can find solace and quiet?

Sweetwater Hill can help. Our space supports community and connection for changemakers like you, who: 

  • Seek a values-aligned venue for your retreat to turn your visions into reality.
  • Need space to recharge on land, with animals, or in the woods.
  • Gather groups for classes, workshops or parties

Testimonials

"I truly love this place. The barn is expansive and yet cozy. The warm lighting, with the beautiful big windows, and so much spaciousness- It was so perfect for my 40th shindig!"

“I had about 40-50 people at my gathering, and it didn't feel crowded. Everyone loved how tucked away yet accessible Sweetwater is. Plenty of parking and not close enough to neighbors to worry about bothering them.”

“Over the past two years, I’ve participated in farm events and hosted a cello concert at the barn. The property sits on a beautiful hillside surrounded by old oak trees and rushing streams. Upon arrival, every time I am greeted by one of the delightful children who is out roaming in the blooming gardens, harvesting eggs from the laying hens, feeding the pigs, or filling the air with fiddle, guitar, or rhythmic percussion as they practice their instruments”.
