    A lovely, pastoral retreat center run by incredibly friendly and accommodating nuns. Beautiful…read moregrounds with wide open lawns rolling down to the Monocacy Creek. Fair warning: lots of crosses, statues, paintings etc. of Christ, the Virgin Mary, various saints (esp. St. Francis). If you're Catholic (our group wasn't) or you're not too bothered by all that, then this is a nice place to have a retreat, or probably even a wedding. The rooms were quiet and very comfortable, with two beds and a sink in each. Avoid the south-facing rooms in the summertime if you're sensitive to sound: the building's AC unit, in the south parking lot is very noisy. The shared bathrooms were very clean. A good range of comfortable, carpeted, small to mid-sized break-out rooms including chapels, a small library with a computer, a TV room with a video library. Wireless access throughout. The whole place felt warm and cozy, even though it's a 1950's style square brick building. The main manor building next door is far more architecturally interesting: the original old summer mansion built by a Bethlehem Steel magnate. The dining hall is run by an outside food service. Those folks are also very friendly and they tried really hard to be accommodating. The menu tended to be a bit simple, and heavy on the carbs and eggs, with very little vegetable protein. They did make tofu and other special request meals. If folks in your event don't eat meat, dairy, eggs, gluten, some combination of those, or have any other dietary preferences/restrictions/needs, bring your own food to supplement, or see if you can give them complete recipes in advance. Lots of birds and wildlife, esp. catbirds, robins, jays, deer and groundhogs, and some of the most amazing firefly displays I've ever seen. There was also a beaver and a muskrat in the creek. Railroad tracks across the creek seem to be used by trains less than once a day, and make for great walking if you can walk the tracks, and are really the only way to stroll along the creek, or through the small fragment patches of woods. Note: Google, Yahoo and some other services (including Yelp, initially, but not mapquest) incorrectly put this on the wrong end of Bridle Path Rd. St. Francis is on he south side of where the Monocacy Creek flows under Bridle Path Rd., WEST of Center St. (turn RIGHT if coming down Center St. from Rt. 22).

    From the owner: The mission of St. Francis Center for Renewal, Inc. is to glorify God and to witness to the Gospel…read moreby providing a Christ-centered environment of hospitality, caring and love as an oasis of peace and healing for all God's people. The Center, founded and staffed by the School Sisters of St. Francis, is built on the tradition of ongoing conversion of heart through prayer, reflection, liturgical celebration and contemplation. St. Francis Center for Renewal is located on 55 acres of natural beauty. The grounds, with wide open spaces for walking, are embraced by the gentle flow of Monocacy Creek.

    This is a review for The Phoenix Banquet Hall at this same address. We had a 25th Anniversary…read moreParty at this Banquet Hall. The Banquet Manager, Lisa B., worked with us on the table arrangements, the appetizers, the dinner entrée, the drinks and no details were left unturned. Lisa and I remained in contact, via phone or email, about a month before the party until the day of the party. This type of contact made me feel very reassured that this party was going to be a great one! We agreed on a time for the bar to open, a time for the appetizers to be served, a time for the dinner to be served and a time for the cake and coffee to be served and every time was met perfectly, on the dot! The attention to detail by the bar and kitchen staff was second to none. The entire staff was very friendly and extremely accommodating. The appetizers and the hot buffet were delicious! Our guests had nothing but compliments regarding the food and the staff. The drinks were perfectly made, not too strong and certainly not watered down, like some places do. The prices were very reasonable compared to other Banquet Halls that we looked at. We will certainly have other parties here in the future. We can highly recommend this The Phoenix!

    Have attempted to schedule events and make inquiries via telephone and email. Calls are never…read moreanswered by a live person and voice messages are never returned. The food served at events is so bland that cheap pizza or fast food would be preferable.
