Enjoy the company of fellow craft lovers

One of the best things about taking a craft workshop is enjoying the company of fellow craft lovers. There is nothing quite like being surrounded by people who share your passion for crafting. You will have ample opportunity to get to know your fellow crafters and make some new friends. We have some crafters who have made arrangements to attend more craft retreats together. 

And you know––sometimes crafting can be a very solitary activity, so it is always nice to have some companionship while you are working. At Big Raven Farm craft retreats you will be in such great company. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, you’ll enjoy your time away. The joke at Big Raven Farm is that time moves differently here than anywhere else. You’ll walk through the doors, you’ll blink, and before you know it you’ll be packing up to head home. 

Relax at our charming country estate nestled on 10 acres in the breathtaking Driftless Region.

 

From the moment you walk through our doors you’ll be enveloped in comfort. Our guest rooms have been curated for your comfort with the luxurious linens, bedding and peaceful décor. Throughout your stay our in-house chef will surprise and delight you at all 8 meals. With fresh ingredients, whole foods and elevated menus we promise you will be nurtured and satisfied. You will sleep well, eat well, and be well taken care of–it’s an easy promise to make because you are guests in our home.
