Rental Procedure:

Whether you are looking for a place to bring your group of 275 or your leadership team of 10, you have found the right place. Since 1946, Hanging Rock has been partnering with ministries like yours to provide unforgettable experiences where God’s presence is so significant that culture and its influences are drowned out.

Determine your facility needs – i.e. which buildings you will need. Our total number of beds are 275 on the main side of the camp.

Check availability of our facility by calling our office at 765-893-4581 or email Todd Blair at toddblair@hangingrock.org, or email Brett Baer at brettbaer@hangingrock.org

Determine your specific needs – i.e. meals, media, sound, set-up, adventure element rental, pools (seasonal).
