It is an amazing place, full of nature that inspires to have a true communion with the Creator! Being here I feel part of the wonderful creation that God put on this earth! Not only is it a place for a physical rest ... but it is a place where my soul and spirit have a supernatural rest !!
Hallelujah!!

Going to Mount Hermon is a yearly tradition for our family and we absolutely love it! There are so many activities for the whole family to do. The speakers are always amazing and the grounds are absolutely beautiful! It is always a very refreshing experience for us. Highly recommend! You will never regret a week spent in the mountains with your family.

This is the best retreat location I have ever been to. Food is amazing. The staff is friendly and hard working. They have a ton of activities for free time and the meeting Halls are fully equipped for sound and multimedia. In essence, no distractions and very easy to get away, focus, and fellowship. Rooms are spacious and the ones we stayed in were recently updated. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Visited this place two years in a row and hope to visit more often. Great for solitude reflection, rest, prayer, families. My deepest desire is to spend a week here away from the grind of the city to do nothing but pray and write.

I have attended this conference four times, and recently brought my teen daughter to the teen writing track. I have always felt that I had a great experience and received full value for my investment. It's a beautiful campus in the coastal redwoods, conveniently close to Santa Cruz, the recreation options I took were fantastic (charter sail boat, ocean kayaking), and the teachers for the writing conference top notch.

I've stayed here twice via my church. I love the environment they've created here. It's so peaceful and beautiful. I will return as often as I get the chance because it's close to home, but feels like a world away.

I've stayed in a couple of the buildings. I highly recommend the Gwinn building as it's right next to the conference center, which makes it very convenient if you're part of a group using that complex. The room was also cozy and had a nice view of massive trees just across from the small patio.

The dining hall is expansive with kind and attentive servers. The food is plentiful and tasty. Not fancy, but more like comfort food. I ate a hearty meal with each sitting.

Week-long camp for 6th graders. Fun, enthusiastic counselors and some of the best accommodations I have seen when making the elementary camp circuit. One immense problem was very poor food, and no kidding, serving a turkey meat derivative 5 meals in a row. The camp was not responsive to complaints, with the young 'principal' making an announcement at line up in front of all the parents and children that the kitchen staff has hurt feelings and that we should thank Jesus for ANY food on our plate. In other words, we were food shamed, rather than the camp owning poor menu choices or poor business practices. MAKE SURE you know your menu ahead of time and good luck finding anyone with maturity beyond their 20's running the camp.

The Spirit of the Lord is in the atmosphere! Great place to take inventory of all of the things that you are grateful for. I love the cabins (they have different sizes for your needs). The food is good. (A little heavy on salt.) The staff are friendly and helpful. The weather varies; bring layers and be prepared to peel them off throughout the day. Beautiful scenery and great family activities or even just venturing alone. Wi-Fi is only near visitor center, but who needs it here? Did I mention a game room, bocce ball, ropes corse so and zip lining offered! Great family fun or for coworkers team building.

This place has been a tremendous resource for my family. Raising kids is a challenging task. Coming as a family, spending quality time together, and having fun, has built enduring affection and closeness, and given us memories that we will carry for the rest of our lives.

Amazing people and place! Our ministry did a retreat here and I would love to be back! The Zipline canopy tour with our guides Ian and Corey was really great! Short walk to the Henry Cowell State Park as well to see some old redwoods. Highly recommend!

This will be our 3rd year going, but a long standing tradition for my wife since childhood. A Tradition our family plans to keep alive for many decades to come.

We have introduced Mt. H to 3 other families we are close to and they have decided to make this a yearly tradition as well.

We are excited to see how Mt. H will grow and how we can have a hand in that growth in the years to come.

Signage was much improved from a few years ago. It's very steep to go from cabins or lodges to central area. For those with walking difficulties, it was difficult. However everything else was good such as ground, staff friendliness, peacefulness, etc. The lodge room was a bit small for three people and the shower just spit out water. Also there was ants inn the winter time crawling on the bathroom door.

Awesome place to get away from it all. Various events for men, women, couples, families and more. There's a book store, ice cream shop and rec center. Fantastic trails to hike or just sit and reflect. Food is great and staff are always friendly. If you need a quiet place to reconnect with God Mt. Hermon is where you want to go.

It's an OK place, but if you have Difficulty Walking or are in a Wheelchair DON'T come here!
There's too many Step areas just to get to Cabins & Meeting Halls!
They Don't tell you that before hand!
Plus the 1st night, Dinner was great but After that the Following Meals we're Mediocre, for what you Paid!!!

Looking forward to next year. Thanks, you guy's did a fantastic job!! Peace, Love and the Joy of Christ Jesus be with you all .
