1ST ANNUAL CREEKSIDE CREATIVITY RETREAT
JUNE 11-14, 2026, CREEKSIDE RETREAT AT TRIANGLE LAKE, 19190 HWY 36, Blachly, OR 97412
WE’VE BEEN TO CREEKSIDE, EXPERIENCED THE BEAUTY AND MAJESTY OF THE LORD, AND COULDN’T WAIT TO GO BACK THERE WITH YOU!
Creekside Retreat at Triangle Lake is a family-owned glamping and primitive camping destination nestled between old-growth forest and the flowing waters of Lake Creek. Join us in this serene, beautifully curated setting for a time of rest, refreshment, and rejuvenation. Take in the sights, sounds, and fragrances of God’s creation—so glorious that one can’t help but think of heaven touching earth. In this peaceful place, your eyes and ears will sharpen, and your imagination will awaken. Write, paint, dance, craft, sing—soar into deeper levels of intimacy and creativity, perfectly positioned in a posture of rest and receiving.
Over the course of four days and three nights, we will have “together time” to begin and end our days in community—praying, sharing, and celebrating around the fire. We will also have “alone time,” where you can spend your day exactly as you wish: sitting by the creek (or in it!), hiking under towering pines, sliding down natural rock slides into crystal-clear pools, wandering along the lake, or simply enjoying sacred stillness. Surrounded by whispering trees and the music of flowing water, your imagination will take flight and your creativity will pour out freely.
Though quite different from our typical KCI “Advances,” we believe this Creativity Retreat at Creekside will inspire you, transform you, and advance you in a whole new way.
Come with us. Step away from the noise of the everyday and into a place where your senses are elevated and your awareness of God’s goodness is heightened. Let’s go!!
