Association Retreat Center

The Association Retreat Center (ARC) is located in the beautiful St. Croix River Valley of Northwestern Wisconsin. Just 45 minutes from the metropolitan Minneapolis-St. Paul area, this former USAF radar base turned retreat & conference center offers year-round lodging and a wide variety of recreational facilities both on campus or within a short driving distance.

For over 40 years, the ARC has drawn people from all over the country for retreats, conferences, family reunions and more. We offer people from many different faith and ethnic groups a place where they can 'Come Away and Rest Awhile' in a safe, relaxed atmosphere so they can be re-energized to make a difference in their homes, churches and communities.

We offer our guests a wide variety of on campus amenities including buildings for meeting space, the largest of these can accommodate as many as 700 persons. We have lodging in motel-style, dormitory style or lodge style buildings as well as two houses that can be used for lodging or meeting space. All this and a full kitchen to serve up some great food!

Recreational options include:

•  Man-made swimming lake with 2 water slides
• Walking and hiking trails
• Challenge course
• Prayer walk
• 9 hole disc golf course
• Human foosball court
• Gaga ball pit
• Three playgrounds
• Three athletic fields
•  Full-sized gymnasium
• And more.

In the winter months guests enjoy tubing, broomball, snowshoeing, or our full-sized gymnasium. Others have taken advantage of nearby ski areas, tubing hills, ice fishing or snowmobiling!

Whether you visit us in summer or winter, the ARC is a great place to host your next event!
