Wiawaka is the only remaining operational retreat center which
arose out of the women's rights movement of the early
twentieth century. Mary Fuller established Wiawaka in 1903 as
an affordable respite for women immigrants working in the
shirt-collar factories and laundries of her native
Troy and Cohoes, NY.

Today, Wiawaka
is a 501C3 nonprofit organization and continues as a summer
retreat for all women over 18 years of age. We offer
affordable vacations on a sliding
scale and enrichment programs which focus on health
and wellness, self expression and life skills.
Wiawaka
is now a tobacco free property.
