November 5-8, 2015 [Thur-Sun]
Vallevue Estate in Morristown, New Jersey
Peaceful Vallevue Estate is our home away from home. Its stunning grounds, open fields, vegetable gardens, gentle farm animals and walking paths are the perfect backdrop for our retreat. November’s fall colors, daytime sun and vibrant sunsets are the breathtaking view from Vallevue’s meeting and dining space.
At Vallevue each large bedroom will sleep two to five women, and each has its own bathroom. Wifi is available. Vallevue is two miles away from the local Jewish community in case you’d like to join shul services on Saturday morning. If you’re feeling adventurous, rigorous hiking trails are closeby.
Travel to Vallevue
If you’re flying in for the retreat, book your flights in and out of Newark Airport (EWR), about an hour’s drive from the estate. Plan to arrive by 2 pm on November 5. Plan your departure after 3 pm.
Vallevue is easily accessible by train. From New York City, take NJ Transit and stop at Morristown Station on the Morris Line. We’re just a few minutes from the station and will pick you up.
