That depends on how many people you have, what type of lodging you use, and how long you stay. The specific amount will be set on your contract, but here are some common scenarios for many groups we host. 20 to 60 persons $450 per night 61 to 120 persons $800 per night 121 to 180 persons $1,500 per night 181 to 250 persons $2,000 per night 251 to 350 persons $3,000 per night 350 + persons $4,000 per night The deposit is generally due with your contract, 1-2 weeks from when you place a temporary hold.
To book a Retreat at Refreshing Mountain, please use the following steps: Contact us to discuss the type of retreat that you are planning, the approximate number of people that will attend, and available dates. It is also recommended that you come and take a camp tour (or at least scroll through our Virtual Tour online), especially if this is the first time that you have held a retreat here. Please call in advance to set up a tour time. We conduct tours daily except Sundays. Place a Temporary Hold on a suitable date(s) (this will hold for 1-2 weeks). At this point, we will send you a contract to review. Sign and return a RETREAT CONTRACT along with your DEPOSIT (the amount will be listed on your contract) . On the contract, you will be reserving space for a minimum and maximum # of people. Your final attendance number is due 2 weeks before the event start date. Once your reservation is confirmed, your space is secured. Usually, about 3-4 months prior to the event, we will begin planning the details of your schedule.
The minimum group size is 30 persons in bunks and 21 in lodge/private rooms. For cabins, there is no minimum group size (the cabins can be rented individually). The maximum group size (comfortably) is 450 persons, but we will allow for larger groups in certain cases (we have the capacity for up to 515 overnight guests). Talk to reservation staff for more details. If you have less than 20 persons and are interested in a retreat at RMC, please call and talk to the reservation staff at 1-888-353-1490. There are certain times when we will lower the minimum number of people in a specific group, and/or we can look at blocking several cabins to accommodate your group.
We take reservations up to 12 months in advance. This gives our existing groups the first option to rebook for the following year. If you are interested in booking a retreat more than 12 months in advance, you are still welcome to contact us to tell us about the retreat details you are looking for. We will place you on a “wait list” and then follow up with you once we know about availability.
Yes, with the exception of the pool area and activities like the Ziplines, Climbing Tower, etc. If you contract for a minimum group size of 351 persons, we will hold the retreat facilities exclusively for your group. Facilities refers specifically to the following: All lodging (Bunks, Lodges, Cabins, Private Rooms), all meeting rooms, both gyms, and the Dining Hall. Unless special arrangements are made, Refreshing Mountain reserves the right to rent campsites to patrons (the campsites are in a different area from the rest of the retreat area), to rent activities like ziplines, climbing tower, etc. to day guests (but your group will have the first option to book them if you are interested in these), and to have the pool open to the community. In all cases, we will make every effort to ensure that any other bookings we accept in addition to an “exclusive” retreat, do not hinder the accessibility of the facilities by the exclusive group.
We recommend booking these activities 2-4 weeks in advance, since they do often get sold out, especially on weekends.
Recreation Areas:
We have an easy to moderate hiking trail, a pond for catch and release fishing (we don’t supply any fishing equipment), and a large playground area. There is an outdoor court for volleyball and basketball, a soccer field, baseball field, and 2 sand volleyball courts. During the summer, the pool is also available during thehours that the pool is open to the community.
Typically, these extra activities should be scheduled well in advance of arrival, since they do often get sold out, especially on weekends.
All rates are subject to change without notice. Prices displayed are representative based on the group size and lodging type selected, additional discounts may be available depending on the season and time of week for your event.
