FACILITIES
Meditation Hall
The great meditation hall is located at the center of the pagoda. It is the main venue for meditation as well as all ceremonial activities. With Buddhism statues around, it offers a perfect place for deep contemplation.
Dormitory
Dormitories are divided into men and women units that are located in separate buildings. The rooms are usually shared by 2 – 4 people and a bathroom in the hallway. No private or semi-private accommodations are available onsite.
Dining Hall
The dining hall is currently located in the ‘old’ Zen Hall before the pagoda was built. The old Zen Hall is now remodelled to serve as the dining hall with very special architecture features surrounding it. The kitchen is directly behind the dining hall.
Lakes
The primary 30-acre lake provides not only boating opportunities but also beautiful grounds for outdoor activities, from sitting meditation to Tai Chi practice and everything in between.
Walking Trails
There are approximately six miles of wooded walking trails. Those trails provide quiet and peaceful environments for walking meditation. Many spots along the trails are also great for short-period sitting meditation.
Picnic Area
When weather allows, the picnic area can be used for BBQ and outdoor dining. A nearby campfire ground makes a beautiful night even more colorful.
