Join Us in Sustainable Living Lost Horizon is more than a retreat; it's a unique safari hideaway that showcases sustainable and comfortable living through modern technology and permaculture principles. One last thing, the only "chore" that we ask of our guests is to take the trash out of the tent and deposit it in the bin on your way out and that's only to help prevent critters from trying to get in! There's none of that long chore list stuff - you're here to relax, not work. :-)
