Single Day Retreat or Meeting
OLPH offers conference facilities, seated dining, and use of our chapel for up to 125 individuals for a single-day retreat. The Retreat Leader may choose to manage and conduct all facets of your retreat or meeting, or may request for OLPH's priests to present conference topics and/or celebrate Mass. The minimum number of attendees required to host a single day retreat for your group is fifteen. This includes facilitators, attendees, instructors, chaperones, etc.If you are unable to meet the minimum number of participants (i.e., 15 participants), please consider bringing your group to the OLPH Monthly Day of Prayer, offered the second Sunday and second Wednesday of each month from September through May.

Multi-Day Retreat
Our campus includes four villa buildings available for overnight accommodations of retreatants, totaling 20 private bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath. Each room has one double bed and one single bed, providing for double occupancy that allows up to 40 overnight retreatants in a shared-room. Each villa has a communal gathering space and kitchenette. The kitchenette is furnished with a toaster oven, Keurig coffee maker, microwave, and refrigerator.
A minimum of twelve (12) rooms must be booked for OLPH to accommodate your overnight retreat. When determining your estimated number of participants, please include all leaders, facilitators, attendees, instructors, care givers, chaperones, etc. Click here for more information on deposits, rates, and cancellations.
A multi-day retreat generally has a duration of 2-3 days. Retreatants check-in the afternoon of the first day, followed by dinner in the Dining Room. The following days include a full breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Full use of the conference center and the chapel can be made available to the group.
