The Center at Orchard Hill
Our
new - and permanent - home sits
high on a
mountaintop near Millerstown, PA, thanks to the vision of Gary and Jean
Miller of New Cumberland, PA. Our site looks out upon a broad
vista that includes the approaches to Selinsgrove, PA, some forty miles
away. Surrounded by more than two hundred acres of woodland, it
is hard to imagine that
US Route 22-322, is scarcely two miles
away. Road noise disappears and one can see the hawks riding on
the thermals. It is a truly beautiful place—a space for
grace.
Orchard
Hill's facilities include a
picnic pavilion, labyrinth and hiking trails, and an
all-weather adult retreat facility.
It includes four double-occupancy bedrooms, two with private
bath and two with a semi-private bath; two single bedrooms with a
semi-private bath; a kitchen-dining room; a great room; and a
handicapped-accessible bathroom. A propane-fired generator runs
the utilities.
