Located in the Old Village of Niagara Falls, near the entrance to the State Park and Goat Island, the Lavinia Porter Manse provides one of the most convenient access points to the waterfalls and major attractions. A short 100 yard walk places one within the park along the upper rapids. A three or five minute walk will then take you to the American, Bridal Veil or Horse-shoe waterfalls. The manse is the oldest mansion in the downtown tourist zone. It was built by Lavinia E Porter, the former Lady of the Mansion and owner of the waterfalls. The manse is decorated to reflect early American life.

The Lavinia Porter Manse is an ecumenical Christian facility operated by independent Christian missionaries and is offered to fellow Christians and others of peaceful faiths to partake of the facilities for retreat, assembly, and guidance while on pilgrimage to the Waterfalls at Niagara.
It provides a perfect setting for quiet, silent individual retreat.

Welcome to Harmony Hill Lodging & Retreat Center
Where Mountains Meet Magic© Come for retreat or recreation
Our New York retreat center is located on 70 pristine acres nestled in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. Stay in our upscale tree house yurts for a unique lodging experience.....or just come for the day. Bring friend or family ......or journey on your own private tranquil retreat.
Harmony Hill's eleven circuit labyrinth patterned after the one in Chartres de Cathedral in France and the Grace Cathedral in California was handmade and took one year to complete. We used our own homegrown fieldstone on the property....harvesting, cutting, laying, and setting them into their new home within the 44 ft labyrinth in the corner of our healing meadow.

On Going Events at the Lodge
A Course In Miracles Study Group
Date: Monday Mornings Hours: 9:30 AM
Whether you are new to the Course or been at it for years, if you would like to study ACIM, come join us. Just bring yourself and ACIM book if you have one. The basic concept of the Course is that we are all equal Spiritual Beings, connected to our Source. The Course is here to assist us in releasing our attachment to guilt, judgment and fear, and to realize that love is who we are, and love is the only thing that is real. We explore concepts of the Course such as:
* If you will accept yourself as God created you, you will be incapable of suffering.
* What is God's belongs to everyone, and is his due.
* Spirit knows no difference between having and being.
* Sin is defined as "lack of love".
* There is no order of difficulty in miracles.
* Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God.
Cost: No charge
