It’s no secret how easily we can lose sight of what naturally grounds us. The 2026 Curious Rebels Autumn Immersion taps into the need to creatively express while being surrounded by nature. Located in Upper Hudson Valley at Owl’s Hoot Barn in Coxsackie, NY, this will be Curious Rebels’ second annual Fabul’ish retreat.
Enjoy an intimate tailored experience that combines a rustic boutique feel with the mindful practice of Developmental Transformations.

Owls’ Hoot Barn is located about 2.5. hours north of NYC. The property is vast and includes beautifully restored historic homes for our accommodations, rustic spaces with modern amenities for play, open fields, wildflowers, and a Finnish Spa with a natural cold plunge pool to be enjoyed before a relaxing evening at the fire pit.

Unique heritage accommodations and glamping options
Nestled in the beautiful Hudson Valley Region of the Catskill Mountains the old farmstead lays along the base of the Kalkberg Trail, a towering cliff of limestone that served as the pathway for the old Indian trading passage up to Albany.
Accommodations on the property complete the experience with antique-styled comfort and romance. The Owl’s Nest Cabin features period furnishings, a clawfoot tub, a Vermont Castings fireplace, and a private courtyard with hot tub and pergola for starlit evenings. Meanwhile, the Circa 1804 farmhouse boasts a chef’s kitchen, original brick hearth, curated antiques, and a bluestone garden patio—inviting guests to slow down, connect, and savor the timeless magic of this place.
Enjoy “on your own” breaks peppered throughout the weekend. Take advantage of the grounds. Journal with a cup of tea in an indoor seating area. Meditate in the shade. Practice yoga in an open field.
Curious Rebels understands the bond between you and your furry friend, and so does Owls Hoot! That's why our retreat is dog-friendly, allowing you to share this enriching experience with your beloved companion.
Throughout the Curious Rebels Autumn Immersion, we look to incorporate the themes of DvT into intentional group and private sessions, while also weaving them into the entire experience.
