From our research, 14 Oct 2026

The resort was closed to the public for about 30 years. It was a Calvary Chapel Bible College and retreat from 1995 to 2022. Olympus Real Estate Group bought it in October 2022, restored it, and reopened it on Feb 1, 2024. No closures were found in searches for 2025 or 2026, and the resort's pages were updated within the last few weeks. An expansion was announced for around Q2 2025 that would double the rooms and pools. Walk-in day passes are allowed if space remains, and the FAQ says to reserve ahead. Online booking is available.

Know before you go

Pools may show a cloudy substance, which the resort's FAQ says is mineral buildup. Check current rules before visiting.
