Conference & Event Facilities
We invite you to consider renting our facilities
for either daytime or overnight use.
Our beautiful Thomas Berry
Hall  houses
three meeting rooms offering wireless internet
access throughout. The Great
Hall will seat up to 150 people comfortably
in a lecture environment, 120 at circular tables
of 8-10 per table, or up to 70 in a circle arrangement.
The hall itself is 1800 square feet of exquisite
wood craftsmanship, featuring a large stone fireplace,
vaulted ceiling, warm wood flooring, sound system,
audio-visual equipment and theater lighting.
The Dining Hall,
approx. 600 sq. ft., seats 48 people at eight
5' X 3' wooden tables. Additional seating for
meals is located in the hall, on the veranda and
outside at covered picnic tables. Features include
stone hearth and gas stove, and panoramic view
windows on three sides. Not only for dining, this
hall is also an ideal break-out space or meeting
place for smaller groups.
Our new Sanctuary
has been described by one poetic guest as a place
"where the echoes of the forest meet the
stillness of the heart and the spaciousness of
Spirit." Master crafted from sustainably
harvested regional timber, and designed for sacred
space, this 1450 sq. ft. building encourages inner
stillness and mindfulness. Appropriate uses for
the Sanctuary include sacred gathering, services
or ritual, music, prayer, or meditation.
Our fully restored, late 19th century
Farmhouse is used for both overnight accommodations
and daytime meetings. The relaxed and casual living
room, featuring hearth and large woodstove, comfortable
chairs and couches, A/V equipment, and picturesque
windows, is a favorite among small groups of up
to 20 participants. Other features include a large
country kitchen, covered porch, expansive outside
deck and two meditation lofts. This is country
charm at its best.
Granny's, a short
walking distance from the center of Chinook, provides
accommodations and meeting space for 12. With
a wood-burning stove, full kitchen, and dining
space, it is perfect for more informal meetings
or breakout groups.
- The Fire Circle
is available for large and small groups.
- Our Finnish Sauna
will allow stress and tension to melt away.
- The popular Labyrinth
is designed for personal or group use. Take
the opportunity to meditate in a meadow surrounded
by pristine natural forest-an unforgettable
experience!
- The Artbarn, organic
flower and vegetable gardens and outdoor Picnic
Shelters offer groups additional places
to relax and socialize.
