Land Description
The W.W. Mann Retreat Center is a unique 90± acre retreat and conference campus in Bulloch County, Georgia, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a legacy property with established infrastructure, diverse natural features, and a long history of institutional and nonprofit use. This property has served churches, schools, and community organizations for overnight camps, retreats, worship gatherings, and special events for many years. Its quiet rural setting creates a private and peaceful atmosphere ideal for a true retreat atmosphere while remaining conveniently accessible to the surrounding region.
The land features a beautiful mix of open areas, mature wooded acreage, and water features that enhance the retreat environment. Mill Creek forms a portion of the property boundary, while two ponds and a designated swimming area provide additional recreational appeal. Approximate land composition includes 30.24 acres of open land, 8.44 acres of ponds, and 51.88 acres of wooded acreage.
The campus improvements are extensive and designed to support group lodging, dining, worship, recreation, and administrative functions. Six wood-frame lodging buildings accommodate approximately 18-24 occupants per building. A large dining hall, with seating for approximately 100-125 guests, also includes a commercial kitchen. Additional improvements include a chapel seating approximately 100 people, two meeting/program buildings, basketball court, baseball field, volleyball court, amphitheater with stage, playground, two picnic gazebos, bath house, covered fountain, administrative building, and two maintenance/storage structures.
All improvements are functional but reflective of their age, and buyers should anticipate capital planning consistent with their intended future use. The property is being offered for sale in its current as-is condition. This property presents an outstanding opportunity for nonprofit or faith-based organizations, retreat or conference operators, educational or training institutions, or mission-aligned groups seeking a private rural campus setting with substantial existing infrastructure.
Located just 8 miles southeast of Statesboro, 3 miles from Brooklet, approximately one hour from Savannah, and two hours from Macon, the property offers both seclusion and convenience. Call today to schedule a private tour of this unique property: (5263).
