Group and Family Cabins

“I will take my children into the wilderness and there I will speak tenderly to them. I will restore their fruitfulness and turn their valley of trouble into a door of hope.” Hosea 2:14-15a

“Jesus withdrew to the wilderness and prayed.” Luke 5:16

As God used the wilderness experience to teach, train and speak tenderly to the children of Israel, so it is our desire that you will sense God’s tender voice speaking to you. Therefore, the purpose for the group / family cabins is to provide a place where you can seek an ever-growing and deeper relationship with our Lord Jesus, as you bask in the beauty of God’s creation. Whether you come for a time of retreat with your group or a time to create family memories, it is our prayer that you will leave this place refreshed and renewed, having heard God’s tender voice and feeling a new sense of hope, purpose and commitment to God’s loving call on your life.

Cabin Information

Each of the three Group/Family Cabins can accommodate about 18 people.

A three-season shower house is within walking distance and available to all three cabins during spring, summer and fall. It is located near the Lakeside camping area. Outhouses are in close proximity to each cabin year-round. The cabins have no running water but have water pumps located close by to meet your drinking water needs year-round.

Firewood for campfires is available for purchase on site.

Group Cabin Policies apply to any Group Cabins reserved by a group. Our definition of a “group” is a group of people who are mostly not an immediate family consisting of a dad, mom and their immediate children. In other words, they are affiliated by organization, not necessarily related. Example: youth group, church group, young adults, organized club, scouts, etc.

Family Cabin Policies apply to any Family Cabins reserved by a family. Our definition of a “family” is simply that unit made up of Dad and/or Mom and their own immediate children. For example, 2 brothers and their wives and children would be considered 2 families.
