Memorial Weekend Family Retreat
RegisterAbout this retreat
Wouldn’t it be great to have a break from cooking meals, cleaning the dishes, and entertaining your tribe? Could you imagine some time away that allowed for quality time with your spouse, spiritual renewal, and bonding time with the whole family? Wish you could get away for a week-long retreat, but you just can’t swing that much time off work?
Memorial Weekend Family Retreat strives to be the experience your family needs to reconnect, rediscover, and relax. In a picturesque mountain setting, your family will be engaged by dynamic speakers to challenge your spiritual walk. Your children will be loved and taught in fun, age-specific programs throughout the day and tenderly cared for in your cabin in the evening by your family’s very own Child Care Assistant. (No, you’re not dreaming! A personal babysitter all weekend long!) You will finally be able to sit down during dinner to enjoy nine hot, delicious meals prepared by our skilled staff and take that much-needed break from the chores. All of the major perks of a Summer Family Retreat are condensed into one spectacular three-day weekend away at Forest Home.
Whether you feel like plunging down the Zip Line or journaling in the chapel, going for a hike or indulging in a milkshake, Forest Home offers a unique blend of experiences for your whole family to make memories that will last a lifetime. Love to swim? We have pools and a lake. Got a competitive streak? Challenge your kids to a round of miniature golf or horseshoes. The possibilities are endless!
A unique feature that distinguishes Forest Home is our all-inclusive rate packages, which means you won’t pay extra for meals, meeting space, and recreation.
