Mother/Daughter Retreat
Join us for our mother/daughter retreat! This three-day weekend will provide time to build stronger relationships, make fun memories together, and grow in the Lord. It will be a mixture of worship, sessions, and lots of fun activities including canoeing, games, crafts, hiking, and more! You will also have the opportunity to develop relationships with other like-minded families.
The relationship between mothers and daughters is hugely important. Most daughters look up to their moms when they are little. They want to imitate them and be just like them. As they grow older, a strong bond of love and respect can develop. But this relationship does not just happen. It needs to be cultivated. One way of strengthening your relationship is through shared experiences and doing something special. Our mother/daughter retreat allows your relationship to strengthen and will give you an opportunity to create life-long memories with each other. You do not want to miss out on this experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you accommodate dietary needs?
Yes! Our kitchen staff has years of experience accommodating different allergies and dietary needs. There is a place on the registration form to indicate if you are gluten-free, dairy-free, or have other dietary needs. If for some reason, we feel we cannot safely or adequately handle your needs, we will talk with you about how to accommodate those needs and make it so you can come.
Can I bring my daughter-in-law or granddaughter?
We welcome all your “daughters” whether they have a suffix or prefix to the name. If your granddaughters are under 18, we will need their parents/guardians to fill out a form indicating that they are alright with you bringing them. It is merely for legal reasons to protect you and us.
Can I come if I do not have a daughter?
We welcome all mothers and daughters to our retreat! If you do not have any daughters of your own, feel free to come and enjoy a time away and a chance to refresh. You could also “adopt” a daughter for your time here.
Are little ones welcome?
If you have a small child who is nursing or is not old enough to be left home, they are more than welcome to come! You do not need to register them, but it would be helpful if you let us know beforehand that you will bring an infant so we can plan accordingly. If we know that some infants are coming, we will try to have child care during some of the activities.
