Make a Group ReservationA SACRED PLACE FOR GROUPS
In 1979, the Episcopal Diocese of Southwest Florida recognized the need for a place where guests from all over the world could congregate and worship in a tranquil, transformative environment. DaySpring found an idyllic home in what is now 97 acres of “Old Florida” property along the north bank of the Manatee River.
Today, DaySpring welcomes hundreds of groups a year, as well as our own adult and youth programs, camps and daytime events. Get in touch with us if you need a unique place for your group. We host everything from leadership training and arts events to team building and educational conferences. While there are a wide variety of groups here, they return year after year for our hospitality, facilities and nature-packed setting, all located near the Tampa metropolitan area.
The DaySpring’s Mission
Dayspring is a remarkable camp, retreat, and conference center set apart to provide the perfect destination for growth of guests and campers at our peaceful riverside oasis. Opportunities to build community, host workshops and meetings, and have adventures and transformational experiences are all the hallmarks of the “DaySpring experience.”
A treasure in the life of the Diocese of Southwest Florida, DaySpring is a beautiful piece of protected "Old Florida" with modern meeting amenities. We consider it a Sacred Place and enjoy sharing it with many people of different faiths and backgrounds.
