About Us

For over 75 years the Dominican Retreat and Conference Center has  provided a contemplative, healing space for thousands of men and women. 

It is located on ten beautiful landscaped acres. Spacious  grounds and open courtyard border forty-five private rooms. A large  dining room, library and meeting room are complemented by one of the  most beautiful chapels in the area. The entire house is wheelchair  accessible.

The center is owned and operated by the Dominican Sisters of Peace, Columbus, OH.

We  are aware that some of the people who attend our programs and some of  our staff are very sensitive to scents.  This sensitivity can cause an  allergic reaction and difficulty breathing.

In light of this  awareness there have been some changes at The Dominican Retreat and  Conference Center.  Our housekeeping staff has been using scent free  products for cleaning.  They have also begun to purchase scent free  soaps for the bedrooms and bathrooms.  We are in the process of  improving the ventilation system in the bathrooms to lessen the need for sprays.

We ask that you join us in this effort. It would be  helpful, if before you come for a program, you refrain from using  products that are scented.  We are especially concerned with perfume and  after shave.

Our scent free environment would assure that all  people who come for a program could be comfortable and be able to enjoy  our facility.
