| The facilities have been designed
with our guests' comfort in mind. Bishop Cole Lodge,
the Cottages, Stewart Dining Hall, and the beautiful, pastoral
surroundings combine to make for a rewarding, pleasant stay. Guests
can let go of the busy schedules of their daily lives and focus on
the goals of their conference or retreat, enriched by the secure,
comfortable, and calming atmosphere of a place apart.
Accommodations
Every room is fully climate-controlled and sound-proofed to
ensure privacy. Overnight accommodations include our 11 lodge rooms,
all of which have two double beds and private baths; and our 16
cottage rooms, which feature two twin beds. Each pair of cottage
rooms share a private bath, so that the layout of the two rooms is
like that of a suite.
Want a more rustic experience? Camp Gravatt is available
for reservation by groups when camp is not in session. Use of
Camp Gravatt is recommended August through October and mid-March
through May, as tents, cabins and bathrooms are not winterized.
Meeting Facilities
Four meeting areas are available - the Cole Lodge Lounge, two
small group meeting rooms in the Cottages, and Stewart Dining Hall.
Cole Lodge Lounge comes fully equipped with coffee service,
refrigerator, an ice maker, and a fire place. This room will
comfortably accommodate up to 25 people. The meeting rooms in
the Cottages are appropriate for small group sessions, and Stewart
Dining Hall can handle a larger group for meetings or dining.
All rooms can be configured to a group's requirements. Standard
conference materials are available as well, including easels flip
charts of newsprint, markers, and tape; TV/VCR, and overhead
projector, all at no additional cost.
Dining
Perhaps the best-remembered feature of a guest's visit are the
delicious meals that are served in our dining hall. Group leaders
select meals in advance from a menu we provide. Dinners are
typically served "family style," with generous helpings available,
while lunches and breakfasts are more often buffet or cafeteria
style, with hot and cold options available at every meal. Staff
members are well-trained in making sure that every guest's needs are
met. Our commitment is always to provide our guests with real
hospitality and to ensure their comfort. |
