Large house on 180 acres of beautiful mountain view lands

St. Francis House has some simple and unique features that some groups love: large gathering rooms for lively discussions or group activities, a fully equipped kitchen where groups can chose to prepare a home-cooked meal, a ranch-style house with some old-timey country charm, and separate accommodations upstairs and down. Nestled on the beautifully landscaped Center property, it’s an easy walk to the trails and other Center features. The house can sleep 13 on two levels, with each of the five bedrooms sharing two or three twin beds. The rooms are a little rustic, but that just adds to the experience and charm.
