At Presentation Center, we strive to provide the best possible experience for every guest, from the individual retreatant to the large group holding a conference. Our mountain setting provides numerous opportunities to enjoy nature, spiritual spaces offer places for contemplation and worship, and meeting rooms from small to large accommodate a myriad of conference and retreat experiences.

On cool days and evenings, the Fireplace Lounge provides a cozy fireside to read and visit byWelcome center with dinner bell in foreground. The coffee room is always open. Numerous recreational opportunities meet a variety of interests between meetings and sessions.

Two fascinating exhibits—one highlighting the striking features of our green building; the other displaying the colorful history of the property—provide interest and enjoyment. Nature trails offer good exercise, places for reflection or opportunities for quiet conversation. There are numerous niches and knolls on which to sit and ponder in the midst of tall redwoods or pines.

Readings in keeping with the themes and missions of the Center abound in the "Green" Welcome Center's straw bale-surrounded bookstore.

I loved having this retreat at Presentation Center—it was perfect. The kids loved it, and it went off without a hitch. Everyone on the staff was wonderful, and I couldn’t ask for anything that you didn’t have. You were there asking “Can I help you with anything? Do you need anything?” The food was great, and working with you has been an absolute pleasure.
