2023 Summer Family Camp: Week 6
About 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 take the time to plan and coordinate it all?
Forest Home Family Camp strives to be the experience your family needs to reconnect, rediscover, and relax. Best of all, we have it all planned out for you!
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 week long!) You will finally be able to sit down during dinner to enjoy seventeen 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 all-inclusive week away at Forest Home.
When we say all-inclusive, we truly mean it. Your stay will be Sunday to Saturday – six whole days! For approximately $200 per day (depending on housing) you will get 3 full meals each day, all the fun activities and programs, daily worship, engaging Bible teaching and enlightening workshops. Guess what – the child care is included in the price too!
Yes, you read that right.
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 those all-inclusive rate packages. This really means that you won’t pay extra for meals, meeting space, and recreation. Pay once. Enjoy for a week. Remember for a lifetime.
