Up to 30 people stay in the lodge. Part of the group can camp on flat ground on the same property, a short walk from the door. Ask us first.
Leaders and the camp director sleep in the lodge, with five bedrooms, the Study, six bathrooms, and a kitchen. The lodge is set up for up to 30 guests. Campers use flat ground on the property, a short walk from the door.
There are no marked tent sites yet. Ask us before you book, and we will show you where the tents go.
An adult can reach a camper in the night without driving. You get one check-in, one set of keys, and one address. The bathrooms and the kitchen are in the same building as the leaders.
There is a wide firepit with seating around it, and a hose on a water supply beside it. We provide split firewood.
The field is level and cleared, and it takes a game, a large-group activity, or a tent. Use the forest behind it for stations, a night activity, or a quiet hour.
The disc golf course goes around the lodge. The sport court has pickleball and half-court basketball.
Check the Coconino County fire restrictions before you light anything. In the driest weeks, outdoor fires are banned, and the ban is enforced. You can always use the indoor fireplaces.
The kitchen is open, with an island, a full-size range, a dishwasher, and counter space for more than one cook. There are pots, pans, sheet trays, and mixing bowls sized for cooking in quantity.
The long table in the dining room is beside the kitchen. The deck seats a group outdoors and covers about 750 square feet, half of it roofed. Two propane grills sit on it: a 5-burner and a flat-top griddle.
Bring the food. The nearest full grocery store is 45 minutes away in either direction.
The property is 17 private acres and you book all of it. There is no other group on site and nothing is shared.
The neighbors are a long way off, and a lot of ground sits between the property and the nearest road. There is a gate at the entrance.
It is working forest. The hazards are uneven ground, wildlife, and fire. Brief the group on them.
Use the barn or the detached garage for equipment during a retreat. Ask when you inquire and we will leave them open.
Quiet hours start at 10:00 pm, for noise and for outdoor lights. Sound carries a long way here at night.

The lodge is set up for up to 30 guests. The beds sleep 20 adults comfortably. In a group of 30, children share beds, use the air mattresses, or bring sleeping bags.
RVs and tents on the property are not part of the 30. A travel trailer delivered to an RV site sleeps four to eight. If your group is larger than 30, ask us.
A much larger group can need county permits and other items, such as restrooms, parking, and access for fire trucks. Those add time and cost.

Group planner
After you book, we set up planning pages for your group at no cost. You send one link to the group. Each person adds themselves and the people with them.
