A Creative Getaway Just Steps from the Sea
Escape to a hidden gem in Florida’s Nature Coast with Sunshine Dreams’
women’s artist retreat where creativity flows as freely as the Withlacoochee River.
Nestled in the charming Old Florida towns of Inglis and Yankeetown
just five miles from the Gulf— you’ll find a tranquil and quiet space to relax, recharge,
and reconnect with your inner artist in a cozy, comfortable and safe environment.
🥐 Wake up to a complimentary continental breakfast, freshly ordered each morning
from a beloved local bakery. It’s our way of adding a little extra sunshine to your stay.
🛶 Thanks to our special partnership with Kayaking with Sassy, you can enjoy unforgettable experiences like swimming with manatees or a magical night paddle under the stars.
(not included in package but discount available).
Whether you’re painting under the oak trees or sipping coffee on the screened porch,
Sunshine Dreams is all about slowing down and letting your creativity breathe. We can’t wait for
you to join us for a weekend of painting, laughter, and laid-back connection in a welcoming,
art-filled atmosphere. No experience needed—just bring your imagination and your flip-flops.
