Our Story

Buckhorn Camp, a ministry of Community of Christ, was established and began operating in 1952. Buckhorn had humble beginnings with a small kitchen and a few modest buildings, but expanded over the years as the inherent spirit of community and hospitality attracted more guests. Beautiful outdoor space in the mountains, rustic cabins, an outdoor chapel beneath a canopy of soaring pine trees, and a large multipurpose gym and conference space called the Peace Center are just a few of the amenities that made Buckhorn a meaningful and sacred space not only for Community of Christ, but also for other organizations and religious groups from around the world who have held retreats, workshops, camps, and events in our space. A virtue of hospitality is deeply instilled in the staff at Buckhorn, and we will make every effort to ensure our guests feel as much at home in our space as we do. We feel a sacred responsibility to be stewards of this beautiful space, and hope you feel the same presence of peace that others have when you step onto the grounds for the first time. All are welcome at Buckhorn, and we hope to meet you soon!
