The Quiet House has been a steady presence above Laity Lodge since 1978, and the time for repairs and renovations has come. We’re excited to reopen this special place, hopefully in early 2026. Watch this page for updates as the process unfolds.
The Quiet House is a secluded retreat house, built in 1978 under the direction of former Laity Lodge director Bill Cody. Just a short hike from the Lodge, it offers space for silence, stillness, meditation, and prayer—welcoming individuals or married couples seeking quiet and renewal.
This one-bedroom limestone cottage includes a queen-size bed (with all bedding and linens provided), a cozy living room, a small loft, a bath with tub and shower, a fully equipped kitchen, and a breakfast room. The kitchen contains an oven, stove, microwave, refrigerator, coffee pot, dishes, utensils, and basic provisions such as coffee, tea, sugar, salt, and paper goods.
Outdoors, guests will find a porch swing, gazebo, hammock, and barbecue pit—simple comforts that invite unhurried time in nature, whether for rest, reflection, or a shared meal under the trees.
