Upward Bound
Retreat Center

CFBC's Upward Bound Retreat Center is located on the north side of Lake Tuttle, separated from the main part of our campus.  It is a self-contained, private facility designed to accommodate small groups of less than 20 people.  While it is still a "work-in-progress," it is an ideal venue for church leadership meetings, ladies' or men's retreats, family reunions, or similar events.

Three Bedrooms & Three Bathrooms

Three bedrooms contain a total of 9 bunk beds that will sleep 18 people.  These bunks are made for adults, i.e., an adult can sit on the bottom bunk and not hit their head on the top bunk.

Bed linens are NOT furnished by the camp. Campers need to bring bedding for a twin bed (or a sleeping bag if preferred).  Pillows, towels and personal toiletries should be brought, also.

  • Bedroom #1 sleeps 8 people in 4 bunk beds.  A full restroom is immediately outside the door of this room.

  • Bedroom #2 sleeps 4 people in 2 bunk beds.  It connects to a full restroom.

  • Bedroom #3 sleeps 6 people in 3 bunk beds.  It connects to a full restroom.

Kitchen & Dining Room

The full-size Kitchen is of sufficient size to allow adequate food preparation for your group.  Although it is stocked with pots, pans and cooking utensils usually found in a kitchen, we cannot guarantee we have everything you need.  If there are particular utensils you will need, either check with us ahead of your event date or bring your own.  There are also two gas grills available for grilling.  Sorry, but catering by CFBC's staff is not available.

Living & Meeting Areas

The living room and adjacent sun room can accommodate your group for meeting & socializing.  The screened "Chapel" is an additional meeting place, although it is not air-conditioned, and a favorite place for group singing.
