Retreats & Campouts
Our facilities are perfect for retreats and campouts by groups of families, corporations, youth groups, clubs, and churches.
Week-long and weekend packages provide lodging, meals, and activities in addition to specially-designed meetings or programs required of our staff.
The participants who share in these weekends of recreational programs, group work and team building activities have the opportunity to create their own schedules, take part in traditional camp fun or spend undisturbed time with family and friends. Weekend programming is planned to meet every group's specific needs, selected from a wide variety of activities that are simultaneously refreshing, motivational and relaxing.
We are able to accommodate your needs. Please call to discuss other options and ways to customize your trip.

Each of our staff is dedicated to the outdoors, to education and to the children and adults they serve.
