Plan Your Retreat
Step away. Slow down. Reconnect with God, community, and creation.
Camp Wightman welcomes churches, schools, nonprofits, business and community groups to more than 200 acres on Billings Lake. We handle the meals, the buildings, and the grounds, so your group can focus on why you came. These resources will help you plan, from the first idea to the drive home.
