Orange Springs Retreat Center is a private, exclusive-use retreat venue in Central Florida, set on 100+ acres near the Ocala National Forest. We specialize in large private group retreats, high school leadership retreats, youth group retreats, church retreats, and adult camps, hosting groups of 60 to 200 guests.
Whether you’re planning a student leadership weekend, church getaway, youth camp, or private group retreat, your group enjoys full, exclusive access to the entire property. Experience comfortable lodging, quality dining, flexible meeting spaces, and a wide range of outdoor activities, all in a focused, distraction-free environment.
Unlike hotels or public campgrounds, Orange Springs Retreat offers exclusive-use access for your group.
From sunrise to campfire, your group has access to a wide range of recreational experiences designed for connection, activity, and fun—all available 24/7 at no additional cost. Enjoy classic sports like tennis, basketball, soccer, and volleyball, take advantage of the lake with swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and inflatables, or explore unique activities like archery, fishing, and gaga. With open fields, indoor creative spaces, outdoor pavilions, and evening campfires led by our on-site caretaker, the possibilities are nearly endless. Dedicated meeting spaces with AV equipment are also available, while specialty ropes courses and climbing activities can be scheduled separately for a fully customized retreat experience.
