Day Passes (2012)
Day pass options are the farthest off because we need the infrastructure to create the draw and justify charging for a day at One Community. That said, once One Community is thriving it will have 5 complete pods and a community of 80-100 full time Community Members and 20-30 seasonal members. The pods will be attractions in and of themselves as they will each consist of 8-15 single or double residences intelligently designed and themed after one of the five elements with a population of part and full-time artists offering their wares from small shops that are part of their homes.
Think of it like a year round festival/renaissance faire atmosphere. Daily classes, swimming, picnicking, dining on home grown food, touring the eco building options, horseback riding, hiking, adventure tours and just walking the property and looking at the art will all be options for a Day Pass holder.
Overnight Stay Options (2011)
Visitors will have a selection of eco-homes to choose for their stay or the option of luxury accommodations at The Center of Peace. Eco-homes from different pods will be completely different with their own feel and look creating a Bucca Di Beppo "Pope Room" exclusivity appeal that will bring people back again and again to try out the different room options or to stay in their favorite one. These homes will be complete homes with kitchens, full bath, etc. The Center of Peace offers a different type of stay with top of the line rooms in the central building of the community. These rooms will be more like what you'd expect at the Hilton only with bed and breakfast service, private patios, easy access to hot tubs, pool, dining, and live music. They won't have their own kitchens and will instead be a full service stay experience including meals, massage, all classes, tours, etc.
The Center of Peace will be the first building completed so overnight stay options will be available winter 2011.
Festival Options (2011)
Festival options are still under discussion as we want to be absolutely sure we honor and protect the land and the property so the size and theme of festivals is of huge consideration. Whether or not festivals are going to be a part of One Community will be discussed in 2011.
