What’s going on at The Glen
“For the peace that you seek”
Welcome to Durward’s Glen Retreat Center. We are a non-profit organization located in the heart of the Baraboo Hills, a beautiful corner of The Driftless Area of southern Wisconsin. Durward’s Glen is operated by a Board of Directors that seek to keep the property open to the public and provide affordable group lodging. Our grounds and trails are open to the public year-round from dawn to dusk to explore at your own risk.
The chapel is also typically open to the public from 9AM to 3PM during the week. On Tuesdays we offer the Rosary at 7:35am, Mass at 8:00am, and Bible Study at 8:30am followed by coffee, refreshments and fellowship.
Photographers and videographers are always welcome; we just ask that request your shooting time on our property in advance so that we respect our guests privacy and maintain a peaceful atmosphere.
We ask that you please submit part of your work (without watermark or humans) to us as a donation instead of Durward’s Glen charging a fee. Email your photos to us at theglen150@gmail.com.
