Scenic nature trails wind through the surrounding forest, providing space for prayer walks, reflection, and small group conversations. The Creekside fishing pond offers a quiet place to enjoy the stillness of the mountains.
Mill Creek flows quietly alongside the center, creating a peaceful backdrop for reflection, prayer, and small group conversations. It's one of those simple, unhurried spaces that often becomes a highlight of the retreat.
