It all was wonderful! Comfortable accommodations, great leadership, well organized, and a good balance of activity and free time. I would definitely recommend this trip!

Gillian’s guidance, knowledge, facilitation, expertise was essential to our experience. She and Brian ensured that every detail of our days and well being were attended. Our spiritual immersion in the lives of St. Francis and St. Clare exceeded all that I had hoped for.

10 out of 5 stars! Lovely accommodations, beautiful grounds, caring staff, great food, numerous carefully curated niches to encourage prayer and contemplation, extensive and well maintained walking paths... I could go on and on, but suffice it to say I will most definitely be returning in the future!

IT was a great workshop. I would like to tell you about the noise from what I assume is the HVAC. Comes from a building to the side -and near the Lodge. The noise is very loud and disturbing. I've heard it before on retreats and generally just avoid that area- I don't go to the stations of the cross, the natural labrynthe due to the noise. But this trip the noise was everywhere - I could hear it everywhere outside and in my room as well (in my room - not so loud - playing radio could help) I am sensitive to noise, so this would bother me perhaps more than the average person. But I am sure it bothers others. Thanks Victoria Welborn

It was wonderful. I'm so glad to know that this place of retreat and renewal exists. I will absolutely be returning.
