The Mountain serves as a year-round host facility for a wide range of conferences, workshops, programs, events and retreats. Our sales and marketing associates are skilled professionals who provide assistance for designing a total experience for your group. We offer a wide range of on-site activities for outdoor adventure, guided nature walks, creative workshops, music programs, rope courses, leadership courses, community building, peace and justice initiatives and interfaith dialogue or just pure relaxation. We host events both casual and formal. Our modern facilities include lodging and meeting rooms for 10 to 140 individuals plus a Dining Hall, game room, outdoor amphitheater, a lake, labyrinth, campfire rings and numerous hiking trails. (See top menu — Bringing a Group.)

The Mountain offers healthy, humane and environmentally-conscious food choices with wonderful wholesome meals to satisfy any appetite. By implementing practices that will help reduce excessive packaging and food wastes while increasing efforts to recycle, compost, create organic gardens and purchase locally produced food, we hope to create awareness and foster healthier living habits.

Our 80-acre site is nestled among ancient white oaks perched atop granite cliffs. The elevation is 4200 feet, and the weather is cool and moderate — especially in the summer months. Guests enjoy the quiet atmosphere surrounded in nature while rocking comfortably on a deck with spectacular views. Incredible stargazing at night is best from our 4-story Tower that straddles the Continental Divide. We look forward to sharing this incredible place with your group!
