​

This is no mere vacation! Camp is a week-long wake-up call. A dynamic camp or retreat experience shakes people from a society-induced sleep with jarring adventure, thought-provoking discussions, challenging activities, caring counselors, and time for restoration. Despite the unmistakable value of a camp and retreat experience, there is a glaring lack of facilities and programs of this type in Utah. Big Canyon was developed to fill this very void. 

​

Big Canyon offers an incredibly beautiful camp and retreat experience including a rustic lodge with meeting rooms, sleeping and cooking facilities, seven sleeping yurts with inside bathrooms, and event/activities planning assistance. In the state of Utah, Big Canyon is unique in what it offers to its guests! Big Canyon is a first-rate facility that can help build community, nurture spiritual and individual growth, strengthen relationships, and provide needed resources for local churches and other organizations
