La Salle Manor Retreat Center - Plano, Illinois

Lasalle Manor is a beautiful place to gather for retreats, meetings, conferences, planning meetings, etc. the grounds are beautiful, and there is a great lake and a walking path around it. There’s plenty of equipment and fields as well as natural environments.

Inside there are lots of options for spaces… Small group rooms, a chapel, two huge and beautiful large group spaces that would seat up to 50 or 60 people, large dining space, and plenty of tech for needs.

The staff here are quite accommodating, kind, and helpful to create something for your needs.

I love this retreat center. It's located on a beautiful island of trees in the middle of an ocean of farm fields. Autumn is particularly spectacular, in my opinion.

The facility is rustic but clean. The log manor with stone fireplaces and accents is gorgeous. There are individual rooms for sleeping with dorm-style shared bathrooms. It's great to have your own little space! The food is excellent with options available for those with dietary restrictions if arranged ahead of your visit. The staff mostly leaves you alone but are nearby and quick to respond if needed.

The grounds include a pond you can walk around or use non-motorized watercraft on, a pool, a beach volleyball court, tetherball, and a large field for group games.

I've been here several times and always look forward to the annual women's retreat at LaSalle Manor. It's not a 5-star hotel but that's also not what I want or expect from a RETREAT center. I think it's perfect the way it is.

It was great. Brad, one of the team members who unfortunately got fired, really helped me spiritually and I was able to grow closer to God. That's not to say that the other team members didn't help. In fact, they were absolutely amazung. When I sprained my ankle they were all there for me

This place is really nice and absolutely beautiful

I've been going here twice a year for retreats for nearly 9 years (minus 2020 of course) and I love it here. The grounds are beautiful, the facility is cozy in the winter and energetic in the summer. They have a nice pool, a little pond to kayak and canoe on, walking trails, bee hives, beach volleyball net, and a quaint log cabin with individual rooms and dorm showering. Two floors so you can segregate men and women, two rooms available separately for non-binary. Several separate meeting rooms, a chapel, a large lodge that can accommodate a meeting of about 50ish people, a nice big screened in porch. And fireplaces galore! Including an outdoor fire pit for bonfires.

Bob, his family, and staff make it feel like coming to visit a friendly distant relatives to me! The staff is so friendly and helpful and yet they also stay out of the way and out of your business while on retreat but are available if you need them. So, in that way, they're definitely better than family haha.

The food is decent. The rooms are decent. It's not a 5 star hotel, but its hard to believe anyone looking to take a spiritual retreat is looking for luxurious accommodations. This place is comfortable and quaint, but the real magic happens when you participate in a community of people here.

I'm always super excited to return!

The Log cabin itself is beautiful, but the rooms to stay in are pretty disgusting. I found multiple bugs in my room and the mirror and sink was very dirty

Such a serene place to spend a weekend in retreat. A nice fire in the great room downstairs makes for such a relaxing evening.
