Gravatt's facilities have been designed with our guests' comfort in mind. Bishop Cole Lodge, the Cottages, the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, Stewart Dining Hall, and the beautiful, pastoral surroundings combine to make for a rewarding, pleasant stay. Guests can let go of the busy schedules of their daily lives and focus on the goals of their conference or retreat, enriched by the secure, comfortable, and calming atmosphere of a place apart.

Every room in our conference center is fully climate-controlled and sound-proofed to ensure privacy. Overnight accommodations include our 12 lodge rooms, all of which have two double beds and private baths (additional cot available); and our 16 cottage rooms, which each feature two beds (some twin, some double). Each pair of cottage rooms shares a bath, so that the layout of the two rooms is like that of a suite. 

Want a more rustic experience?  Camp Gravatt is available for reservation by groups when camp is not in session.  Use of Camp Gravatt is recommended August through October and mid-March through May, as buildings are not winterized. Up to 200 can sleep, meet, and eat on the camp side in screened cabins and platform tents with community bath houses.

Meeting Facilities
Three meeting areas are available a the Conference Center - the Ireland Room, Stewart Dining Hall, and the Chapel of the Transfiguration.  Groups staying at Camp Gravatt may use the Pavilion, Beckam Hall, or Collet Dining Hall for meeting and dining.

The Ireland Room is located in Cole Lodge. It is a comfortable meeting space fully equipped with coffee service, refrigerator, an ice maker, public restrooms, and a fire place. The Ireland Room can be used as one large space for up to 100 or divided into two separate rooms for smaller groups.

The Chapel of the Transfiguration is used primarily for worship but can also be used for meetings that are in keeping with its atmosphere. Overlooking Lake Henry, the Chapel provides a beautiful sanctuary for worship, meditation, and learning for up to 180 people.

Stewart Hall is primarily used as a dining and reception hall; however it can double as meeting space, and the lovely wood-burning fireplace is set with cozy couches for a wonderful gathering spot. Stewart's front porch rockers make another guest favorite spot.

Gravatt's 260 pine-covered acres is mostly undeveloped. Sparkleberry Trail provides an easy, scenic hike. Lake Henry and Lake Sylvia may be used by guests for canoeing and swimming by reservation and only with a certified lifeguard. Guests also use these lakes for fishing brim and bass. Additional ponds are tucked away for exploring and fishing. Four activity fields are available for organized and impromptu sports and games.  Guided hikes, archery lessons, fishing lessons, and challenge courses are available as well by reservation.
