Tuckaleechee Retreat Center (TRC) is owned and operated by Children’s Bible Ministries (CBM). The purpose of CBM is teaching the Bible, evangelizing the unreached, discipling believers, including school students and adults, encouraging and equipping them for service for Jesus Christ in their community, local church and on to the world.TRC was purchased in 2000 to house the CBM national office, for use as a training facility for new CBM missionaries as well as current CBM area directors and staff, and to practice the ministry of hospitality. Visit Children’s Bible Ministries’ website to get to know the 11 different areas who do the ministry of CBM.
When CBM is not using the facilities, TRC is rented out for retreats, reunions, celebrations, or family getaways. Any profit from TRC rentals is deposited into the CBM general fund to be used to promote the work of CBM. CBM was blessed by the Lord Jesus Christ with the management of these 53 acres of land in Townsend, TN.
As stewards of this land, the staff of CBM national and TRC feel strongly that they are to keep up this facility to the best of their abilities. Thus, the buildings are kept clean and well appointed, the grounds are nicely landscaped, and maintenance and upgrades are done regularly.
Our guests include many churches and families who come here year after year; hence, a good testimony to the hard work put in to keep this property in tip-top shape. We also welcome couples and/or families who want to come for a special getaway or vacation. We have six cabins of various sizes that we will rent for a group or as individual rentals.
