Greenbrier Christian Retreat began as a dream for Founding members Don Huber and Jonathan Comer, in 2005. Through continuous prayer, bountiful donations, faith, and hard work, they were able to inspire passion in many, to realize what we now know as Greenbrier Christian Retreat. 

Construction began in 2014 and by the summer of 2016, we were blessed to open our doors to our inaugural youth summer camp. We quickly realized that our outreach was small and began opening up to other Christian organizations. We offer retreats, camps, and rental space to churches and organizations of like-Christian faith. 

We hope that our facilities will provide you with the luxury of peace to spend time with the Lord!
