Winona is a beautiful city on the Mississippi.

Our base of operations in Winona will be Goodview Haven. It’s located in Goodview, the city adjoining Winona to the north, just three miles from our downtown venues. This house includes a large meeting hall where we will do our work; this is a plus as we will not have to travel between venues for meals and meeting spaces. The address is 3655 W. 6th St., Winona, MN 55987 (Map + Directions). The floor plan is at the bottom of this page. We will have three bedrooms with two beds each, and two bedrooms with three beds each; a large communal kitchen and a great room that can hold 40 people. The outdoor space is large and accommodating, too.
