Restorative and healing
These Hermitages have everything you need for some quiet alone time. I appreciate the thoughtful details. The little deck to look at the trees, the outside space and creek to wander in. The kitchen that is simple yet has everything you might need to prepare simple meals. I always come away refreshed and grateful for this space.

Exceptional
The couple of days and nights I spent at the Hermitages were absolutely wonderful; restorative and refreshing to my soul.
The accommodations and setting were perfect. The hermitage was cozy, immaculate, and inviting. I will definitely be back, and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a private retreat. Thank you!!

Weekend at Franciscan Hermitage
From start to finish, my weekend was wonderful. I was filled by the beauty of nature, the silence, and solitude! The comfortable furniture and small but well- equipped kitchen added to my experience. By Sunday I felt rested and renewed by this sacred time with God.
I was grateful!

Wonderful restful and peaceful retreat close to home
The hermitage at the Center was simple, clean, and comfortable. And beautiful because of that. I sat on the balcony in the comfy chair and looked out onto the woods and listened to the birds. I sat there during a rainstorm. I read and wrote and felt the surroundings put me at ease.
Everything was well organized. The Sister who checked me in was attentive, and then left me to my privacy. Perfect balance of care and solitude.
I'm definitely going back!
