The Lodge

One lodge. Seventeen beds.

Your team is the only group here. Every room, every porch, every acre is yours. Built for boards, founders, and leadership teams.

The Water

A 13-acre pond, full of big bass.

Our guides take you out at first light. Kayaks wait at the dock. Clear thinking happens near water.

The Table

Every meal is cooked for you.

A private chef runs the kitchen all weekend. Long-table suppers under the lights. Oyster roasts and Lowcountry boils. Coffee is on before the sun is up.

Fully staffed

You just show up.

We meet you at the airport. We cook, we clean, we guide. Our team is on site all weekend.

Why this place exists

Your weekend gives pastors rest.

This land was built as a refuge for pastors. A thousand pastors come here each year, for free. Corporate weekends keep that promise funded. That is why this place feels the way it does.
