Prairiewoods Franciscan Spirituality Center is a sacred space where people of all faiths and cultures are invited to explore and nurture their relationships with the Source of all Being, Earth, Self and Others, with an increasing awareness of the story of the Universe. Prairiewoods’ 67 acres of woods and prairie offer a haven for those in search of solitude and a connection with the natural world. Guests have opportunities to enjoy the woods and prairie with its network of trails and meditation areas. The grounds also include a cosmic walk, a food forest and edible landscaping, and a labyrinth.
Prairiewoods’ Guest House provides clean, simple air-conditioned rooms for guests who wish to stay overnight. While each of the guest rooms has its own sink, a bathroom with shower is shared between two double rooms. Prairiewoods also has two Hermitages, or small cottages on the edge of the woods, for people who want more quiet and solitude. Each of these simple one-room buildings is a self-contained living space for one person, equipped with a stove, refrigerator, bathroom, and other amenities. A ceiling fan and portable fan are provided for warm weather. There is no air conditioning in the hermitages.
Healthy, fresh meals are cooked on-site. Many ingredients are sourced from Prairiewoods’ gardens and local farmers, honoring the rhythms of the land. Prairiewoods is happy to accommodate a range of special dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options with advance notice.
