Mountain Conference Center

The Mountain Conference Center occupies the highest elevations of the Abode's 400+ acres. It houses dining halls and meeting spaces, along with shared bathroom and shower facilities.
Sixteen Private Huts populate the mountain top. They are simple, rustic retreat huts, not holiday cabins offering modern amenities.
Private Huts at the Mountain Conference Center do not have electricity or running water. With some, there are nearby outhouse facilities for convenience.
Two buildings, similar to each other, comprise the Shared Cabins, a total of twenty rooms each housing two people. They are located within easy walking distance of the dining and meeting facilities.
Tenting capacity is basically unlimited along the trails of the mountain top.
