Stony Point Center openly welcomes individuals to spend private time on our campus as sojourners. For a quiet get-away, we especially recommend sojourning Sunday through Thursday, when there are often fewer guest groups on campus. Special rates for clergy, activists and caregivers, please inquire. Recharge and revitalize with us in a caring nurturing environment.

Mission/Lineage: We practice the hospitality of our Muslim, Jewish and Christian faith traditions. In its deepest sense, hospitality means "welcoming the other, welcoming the stranger," whether that comes in the form of another human being, a group, an idea, or a critique. It is this fundamental openness to learning about, understanding, and potentially being changed by the other, that is the foundational practice which leads to collaborative, effective efforts to nurture peace, nonviolence and social justice.
Average Cost: Our sojourner rates are based on location and availability. Please note that our lodges have shared single use at a time bathrooms in the hallway. Rooms in the Gilmor Sloane House offer private bathrooms. The Allison House is also a short walk off campus offering 5 bedrooms and accommodations for 12 guests.
