The Why
Becoming an angel investor in any business or endeavor is an important decision. We hope you consider some or all of these factors in your decision making.
Climate change and economic forecasts predict that land near Lake Superior - the largest fresh body of water in the United States, is only going to increase in value over time as reported recently in the Wall Street Journal and New York Times. An investment here, is creating a generational opportunity for you and your family.
Social Impact. Testimony after testimony from guests that WRR is a place of profound healing. The impact we are having creating sanctuary, respite, ritual and connection is an investment in human capital.
Sound Investment. Economic forecasters are demonstrating that even with a pandemic, hospitality, and wellness travel in particular, is a sound and growth centered investment.
Returns. Modest returns and dividends are predicted in year 3 of fully realized operations with a growth strategy on par with a social impact investment. If the land option is also executed, additional returns from real estate appreciation and potential for rental income may increase ROI exponentially.
A No Hassle Cabin in the Woods. If Investors choose to exercise the land option, having a skilled team of developers, architects, and managers build and manage your home makes for the absolute best way to “have a cabin on the lake and in
Shared Values Community. Wild Rice Retreat brings a community of like minded stewards and guests. As you may already know - friends are made so easily at the retreat. Investing here provides you with both a personal sanctuary and a circle of new friends.

My soul is at rest there…
I truly believe Wild Rice Retreat is a spot for us to come and lay down our weary souls and find rest. It is a place to feel provided for, yet there are no expectations placed o you, the day’s agenda or lack of one is completely in one’s own hands. I felt this on my first visit, which is why I have been back several times. When the opportunity arose to be a part of investing in and furthering the mission of this place, I was drawn to be a part of it.

A year-round respite on the shores of Lake Superior in Bayfield, WI, Wild Rice Retreat brings a new, transformational way to travel. Founded on the pillars of expression, movement, and nourishment, Wild Rice offers guests both personal travel and guided retreats that nurture individual creativity and human development.
PHASE ONE
INCLUDED:
OUR HOSPITALITY is rooted in ensuring guests feel nourished, cared for, and celebrated.
OUR BRAND reflects nature, light, and healing space.
OUR BELIEF SYSTEM grounds itself around rest and ease; creativity and curiosity.
OUR ECOSYSTEM promotes nature-lead, sustainable and regenerative travel and living.
Mission
Wild Rice Retreat creates an environment for grounding the mind, body and spirit. We do this through integrative artistic and holistic life experiences, providing a safe and vibrant space for creativity and human development to thrive.
Background
In its first two years of operation, Wild Rice Retreat has become one of the top destination retreats in the country. Named by Condé Nast Magazine as the #3 Top Resort in the Midwest, we are quickly securing our place on the map for exemplary hospitality. As a woman-owned business, we are creating a new way to travel - rooted in rest, rejuvenation, and connection to nature.
Our regenerative and restorative impact on the people passing through our doors is profound. It takes a village - and nimble capital - to bravely forge a new way of living, traveling, and being.
To support our continued growth, we solicited $1M in Angel Investors who value our pillars and believe in Wild Rice Retreat’s vision, its impact, and want to support our continued growth. While our goal was reached in summer 2024, a small additional round is now open.
These investors will be shareholders and stakeholders in Wild Rice Land, LLC - the Real Estate Holding Company & Developer. Wild Rice Retreat is a leasehold tenant to Wild Rice Land, LLC. Profits to shareholders are derived from profits from Wild Rice Retreat and future land sales, land development and management fees for the homes.

It is a must.
When this opportunity to support a healing retreat, protect land, invest in real estate and enjoy environmentally conscious vacation rental properties presented itself, all within the framework of a women led business legacy, I didn’t think twice.
