Retreat Types

We host a variety of different types of camps and retreats throughout the year. We encourage you to look through this page to see whether BCC could be the venue to host your next event!

BCC is a great location to host a couple’s retreat!  With excellent facilities, friendly staff, great meals, and package rates, we think you’ll agree.

  • Campfires are a favorite activity for many of our groups.  We have 5 campfire locations.
  • For quiet places of reflection, we have 2 gazebos, a prayer walk, a nature trail, and a number of red Adirondack style chairs around the campus.
