“Helping people heal through sacred spaces on a journey towards wholeness”
Welcome to Silver Lake Retreat
Nature, water and peace will surround you at the Silver Lake Inn. Our beautiful lake is a gravel-based, forty-seven acre, spring-fed body of water. This quiet lake only allows boats without motors like canoes and kayaks.
About 1/2 mile around the bend, within walking distance, is a 42 acre park. It is a dedicated Illinois Preserve with nature trails through serene wooded ravines.
Winter has its own special appeal. When the lake freezes over, the ice is alive with hockey games, figure skaters, cross-country skiers, ice fishing and warm bon fires.
This is the perfect setting for days of reflection, solitude and time away. Retreats vary in length: a few hours, a day, an overnight or longer. Just let us know how we can best provide the experience your soul needs.
We invite you to come sit by the still waters, spend time in prayer or contemplation, journal, read, sleep or simply rest and be silent. Take time to pause and allow your soul to catch up with you.
“it was so good for my soul to be at Lisa’s place. the lake, the surroundings, the lodging was exactly what i needed to reset and re-calibrate for ministry. i would highly recommend anyone who is serious about soul-care to take advantage of this place. you won’t regret it!
