The Perfect Florida Venue for your Youth Group Retreat

We’re sure that as youth group coordinators, you’ve noticed that our world has become increasingly digitized, it seems there are fewer and fewer opportunities for children or young adults to get together outside of a church or school environment to have fun. A Youth Group Retreat is one thing where precious memories are created and ample fun is had. Learn more about our Florida youth group retreat location here.

Our Youth Group Retreat is Close to Gainesville, FL

Orange Springs Retreat is the perfect location for your next youth group retreat in Florida (minimum group size 60). A serene 100-acre retreat center that also serves as a premier children’s summer camp. Beautiful location close to Gainesville and just outside the Ocala National Forest sits on the pristine shores of our private spring-fed lake.

Perfect for Outdoor Activities

Canoeing, paddle boating, or kayaking are just a few possible outdoor activities that kids love. We have wide open sports fields for team games as well as indoor/outdoor basketball courts and 4 tennis courts perfect for youth group retreat activities. We can also arrange facilitation of our high and low ropes courses to meet your youth group’s or school’s leadership development/team building needs.

Your youth group will have exclusive access and will be the only group using the entire location during the retreat. All meals are provided by our retreat center staff. There are a number of amenities and meeting rooms of different sizes that can be used for lectures, break-out sessions, and crafting. There is a theater and lecture room equipped with an overhead projector for movies or presentations. All buildings feature heating and cooling depending on the weather to make sure guests are always comfortable.

We have hosted many youth group retreats over the years and it would be a pleasure to host yours!
