Shenandoah West
The Shenandoah
West Story
From a weekend retreat
in the mountains by 29 men from the San Leandro Church of Christ in
1968 grew the inspiration for Shenandoah West.
Those men were so impressed with how much they were able to grow
spiritually in these surroundings that they purchased the beautiful
160 acres of historic ground in the Sierra foothills that is now
called Shenandoah West.
Camp Rental
Shenandoah West is an ideal setting for
church retreats, youth events, even weddings! The facility is available to groups of all sizes.
A fee schedule is available here.
Contact the church office by telephone at 510-568-7062 or by email at

about reservations and availability. You can view and download directions here.
Camp Description
The Shenandoah West Camp's 160 acres
are fully fenced. There is a
main lodge which includes a meeting room, kitchen, four (4) bathrooms,
and men's and women's dorms. The men's dorm can sleep 15 people (7
bunk beds and 1 single), the women's dorm can sleep 20 people (10
bunk beds). Each has a bathroom with two shower
stalls. There are smoke alarms and fire extinguishers on the
premises.
Outside the main lodge
is a fenced, grassy yard area where small children can play with
supervision. Elsewhere on the property, you will find:
- a pond
- a softball diamond
- a volleyball court (no net)
- and numerous trails for hiking.
The cross on the hill
makes a wonderful devotional setting. There is also an amphitheater
with seating for large or small gatherings.
Electrical hookups for
eight (8) RV's are located just outside the main lodge. Tent
camping is also an option for housing additional guests. |
