Welcome to Indigo Zen Garden, a serene forest retreat tucked away in the heart of Caledonia, Wisconsin—just minutes from city life, yet worlds away in spirit. Nestled within a private woodland sanctuary, our glampsite invites you to reconnect with nature through birdsong, healing trees, and the tranquil reflections of our quiet pond. Whether you’re escaping for a romantic weekend, a unique family getaway, or a peaceful solo retreat, Indigo Zen Garden offers an enchanting blend of comfort and wonder. Only one booking - but THREE themes to choose from! Whether booking for 2 people or 8- there is plenty of space to relax and unwind. Choose from our clear geodesic Stargazing Dome, the romantic Moon Chaser bell tent, or the whimsical Dream Catcher children’s play tent—each thoughtfully designed for a cozy, rejuvenating stay. Let the magic unfold as you explore our butterfly and fairy gardens, gather around the fire pit under a starlit sky, or watch your little ones laugh and play in the sandbox and rock kitchen made just for them. After a long day, rinse away the world in a hot outdoor shower beneath the stars, slip into a soft robe, and enjoy fresh-baked cookies as butterflies, bees, and birds fly around you in the golden light of dusk. Just a short drive from Lake Michigan, Milwaukee, Kenosha, and Racine, our location offers access to stunning lake views, charming historic landmarks, and vibrant cultural experiences. But when you’re here, time slows down—and peace takes center stage. Enhance your stay with one of our curated experience packages, including: • Romance packages for date nights, proposals, or intimate micro weddings • Nature therapy and forest bathing walks • On-site yoga and guided meditation At Indigo Zen Garden , we provide everything you need—from fresh linens and cozy bedding to locally sourced amenities—so you can simply clock out from work, arrive, and unwind. No setup, no stress. Just serenity, starry skies, and the soothing embrace of the wild. Indigo Zen Garden —where nature heals, and magic lives.
