Top Features
Come for the Day
We accommodate groups of 10 to 180 guests by renting indoor or outdoor event space for the day. Flexible lodging options include dormitory-style cabins, hotel-style options, and house-like lodging in our beautiful Campbell Lodge.
The retreat's expansive indoor and outdoor meeting spaces allow for large conferences and intimate workshops, all supported by Wi-Fi access. Additionally, Loch Leven's proximity to nature provides excellent opportunities for outdoor team-building exercises, including hiking, ropes courses, and even a "Leap of Faith" challenge.
Stay Overnight
Often, groups will combine their event with an overnight stay. For nonprofits coming to Loch Leven during the week, we have plenty of lodging options which offer a variety of options:
The Cole Hospitality Rooms are ten motel-style rooms, each with two single beds, totaling twenty beds.
There are three dorm cabins, each sleeping up to twenty-four guests in bunk beds.
Campbell Lodge is a gorgeous retreat house with a full kitchen, meeting areas, six bathrooms, and sleeps up to thirty guests in six bedrooms.
The Cole Hospitality Rooms rent for a package rate that includes three meals, while Campbell Lodge rents for a flat rate. You can cook your meals or let us provide meals for your group.
Meal Service
Meals are served in the Dining Hall, which seats up to 150 guests. We offer full-service breakfast, lunch, and dinner and pride ourselves on accommodating special dietary needs. We have a full sample menu listed on our website, though once you make a reservation, our team will contact you to work out a meal plan that works best for your group.
Some guest favorites are:
Freshly baked bread with meat or vegetarian lasagna, hearty and satisfying.
A healthy salad bar with every lunch and dinner.
Delicious s’mores, enjoyed by the campfire.
