About Us

Nurturing back into Nature

The Makers Haven is an expansive spiritual retreat and private campground designed to offer a sanctuary for those seeking personal growth, relaxation, and a deeper connection with God and nature. The retreat incorporates principles of sustainability in both building and land management to create a harmonious environment conducive to meditation, ritual practices, and community building.

Our goal is to help people seeking to deepen their personal relationship with God, the land, art, and themselves.

Our Values

Sacred Stewardship

We honor the earth as holy ground entrusted to our care. Land, water, plants, animals, and people are treated with reverence, responsibility, and gratitude.

Hospitality & Nourishment

We commit to being a house of bread: feeding the hungry, sheltering the weary, and welcoming all who come in good faith, without exploitation or neglect.

Worship
Beyond Walls

We believe sacred space extends beyond temples into groves, gardens, trails, and dwellings. Prayer, ritual, and devotion are integrated into daily life and the natural world.

Sustainability & Simplicity

We practice sustainable land management, permaculture, and responsible construction, seeking balance, resilience, and long-term care rather than excess or waste.

Community & Covenant

We foster shared responsibility, mutual care, and communal participation, building a living covenant among caretakers, visitors, and the land itself.

Restoration & Renewal

We provide a place of healing for individuals and communities, supporting spiritual growth, emotional rest, creative expression, and reconnection with God’s creation.

Justice & Compassion

We commit to compassion for the poor, the marginalized, and the vulnerable, rejecting the conditions of exploitation and neglect that lead to spiritual decay within the gates of sacred space.

What is the good of your stars and trees, your sunrise and the wind, if they do not enter into our daily lives?”
