Retreats

St. Francis Springs Prayer Center is the perfect destination for groups seeking a peaceful environment for rest and spiritual renewal. Whether you're a corporate team, a group of friends, or a faith-based organization looking to come for the day or spend several nights with us, we welcome you.

Accommodations

Choose from our main lodge, cottages, or hermitages, each offering a comfortable and peaceful environment for your stay. All rooms have the necessary amenities to ensure a comfortable and restful experience. With one person to a room, we can accommodate groups of up to about 30 people; however, most of our rooms are also well-suited for two people.

Dining

We know it takes a lot to plan a group retreat, so we’re here to make things as simple and easy for you as possible by including meals in our rates. We’ll also work with you to accommodate your group’s dietary needs.
