Retreats At Wanakee

We are are ready to welcome you to Wanakee! Our rustic site offers a wide range of facilities and activities with opportunities for adventure, relaxation, or both.

Wanakee's facility is available year-round, with accommodations for up to 120 guests during the spring and fall, and 20 guests in the winter.

Adults and youth can get away to grow individually and as a group. Take time to unplug and be in the moment. Learn about others through discussions, build trust and self-confidence in the ropes course, or give back by completing work projects.
