Advance Payment and Deposit Information

Each reservation must be accompanied by a deposit of $75* per person, per event. Any remaining package fees may also be paid at that time and must be paid in full no less than 30 days prior to your scheduled arrival. Failure to prepay 30 days in advance will result in the loss of your deposit and cancellation of your program/lodging space. Most cancellation requests received prior to the 30-day deadline are eligible for a full refund (exceptions noted below*). A refund of payments received, less your deposit, may be requested up to two weeks prior to your arrival. No refunds will be made less than two weeks prior to the event; however, the amount paid may be transferred to another event in the same or following calendar year. Lodging accommodations in our inns and participation in our Come Early/Stay Over opportunities are subject to space availability.

Deposit Requirement Exceptions: An Evening at The Cove, Christmas at The Cove, SeniorSalt events, Women’s Luncheons, and 2-day off-property packages require an advance deposit equal to the cost of the program. Deposits are nonrefundable; however, if cancellation is made at least 30 days in advance, monies paid may be transferred to another event in the same or following calendar year. A lodging deposit, where applicable, is also required.

Seminar/Retreat Information

Program schedules vary by event. Most seminars begin with afternoon check-in and dinner*, followed by an evening program, and conclude late morning on the final day. (View sample schedules online). *Dinner not applicable for non-meal packages.

Speakers, worship leaders, and artists are scheduled to appear as noted; however, in the event of unforeseen or extreme circumstances, substitution or rescheduling may be necessary. In this unlikely situation, we will do our best to inform registered participants of changes.
