St Francis of the Woods

I cannot speak highly enough about my experience at Saint Francis of the Woods. I attended the Wildflower Festival this June and had a fantastic time. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful. There are about 2 miles of walking trails and the whole place is teeming with wildlife and native flowers and plants that are well cared for. Most importantly, the hospitality offered by Brad and Katherine during my stay is unmatched. They made me feel so welcome, and their hard work and upkeep of the place are truly appreciated. I was sad to leave and look forward to returning. It's a perfect place to visit for the day, or rent a cabin and relax in secluded serenity. I'm so grateful that this place exists in Oklahoma!

This is a beautiful retreat in the woods and a lovely little spot a bit off the beaten path in Oklahoma. I recently attended a festival they had and I had such a great amount of fun I didn't want to leave.

One of the best hiking trails near Stillwater! You need to drive a little off the road and there will be signs. There are two ways one is a bit easier, but actually both are not hard. A lot of animals around. Dears, armadillos, different birds. And the view is so pretty!

I had a wonderful refreshing stay at St. Francis! I was in the Bonaventure Cabin which is off by itself, and it was delightful! Jackie and Bradley were sweet and helpful. My cabin was very clean. The grounds are well kept but still give you the feeling of being way out in the woods. Only 30 minutes from OKC!! I plan to be a regular visitor.

I was delighted...a relatively short drive from anywhere in central Oklahoma. This is a welcoming oasis of peace and contemplation. Not a spa or a mega church, just a small loving and nurturing community on a wonderfully wooded space. Clean, modest, and well kept facilities easily accommodate individuals and small groups with charm and a friendly style. A delightful array of programs, or you can bring your own. This is the best kept spiritual development secret in Oklahoma. Got something on your mind or heart? - try a visit!

A hidden gem; caring, compassionate folks, a truly sacred space to feed your soul. The service is wonderful, down to earth yet ritualistic. The library is astounding, beautiful grounds, excellent hosts. I almost don't want the secret to get out how amazing this place is! ♥🙏😊

Had a family retreat here in the farmhouse. Very clean 60's decor we loved it! The trails are a real hike! Private and connected to Gods natural world. Highly recommend!

Services her are Eastern Orthodox, and are very peaceful and healing. There are cabins for overnight retreats 7 days a week that are fully decked out with kitchen supplies a n d a full kitchen including microwave, stove, and oven with a large refrigerator, linens and 2 bedrooms, a bathroom with shower, heating and air conditioning, and a full porch facing the west for watching the forest and the sunsets. The theological library is vast, covering works regarding Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, Judaism, a broad spectrum of Protestantism, Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, as well as other practices. The community center has a nice kitchen and dining facility. Beyond all that you can experience a forest, a prairie, grain and vegetable farming, and various small farm animals and purchase fresh eggs. St. Francis of the Woods is the perfect place for a retreat of one or a group of many!

FABULOUS labyrinths, library, chapel, trails, cabin, and community events. EXACTLY what we needed: quiet and comfortable.

Beautiful sacred communal place, to love , respect and enjoy nature and all those who practice loving others.

Went for a Rummage Sale last weekend and was just taken with St Francis of the Woods. It is so well-taken care of, clean and peaceful.

So very peaceful and just a wonderful place to visit!

Very beautiful. Didn't expect to see this in Coyle.
