Wildwood Retreat Center
20111 Old Cazadero Rd, Guerneville CA 95421
The Wildwood Retreat Center offered for sale here is a rare and unique opportunity to own a wilderness retreat compound on 210-acres of pristine forest, meadows, streams, redwoods, and wildlife, all manicured with hiking trails throughout. Austin Creek runs through the property with private beaches, swimming holes, fish, and wildlife year-round.
The Wildwood Conservation Foundation operates this Retreat Center, making it available to organizations, groups and families for retreats, seminars, workshops, weddings, and family reunions. It has 18-guest rooms, a pool, indoor hot tub, 30′ x 60′ conference room, sun & view decks, …and so much more.
In addition to its tradition income from renting the property for events, substantial revenue is generated through receiving conservation grants awarded to this property each year due to its Wilderness Conservation efforts and non-profit status.
Wildwood has a use permit in place recently issued by the Sonoma County PRMD offices to operate as a retreat center, which has been its use for decades. There are remaining conditions to the use permit that need to be satisfied by a future owner to continue its long-established operations. The path forward is well defined with the cost estimates, and a plan in place, to satisfy the remaining conditions to the use permit and begin operations as a retreat center again.
The opportunity is now for the right new steward to bring this retreat to the next level and make it a world class destination, and potentially continue as a wilderness conservation organization, as it has historically been for so long. This is a very rare opportunity that almost never surfaces in Sonoma County.
The compound as currently improved is extensive with the following buildings and their gross square footage.

This is truly a beautiful area and a very rare opportunity to explore.
