Rentals and Bookstore

Several facilities at Shaver's Creek, including the main building that houses our Bookstore and Gift Shop, are available to rent for group programs, outings, and even weddings. Please see our Rental Pricing and Policies for details.

Boats and boating equipment for use on Lake Perez is available across the lake at Stone Valley Recreation Area. Stone Valley also rents cabins, pavilions, and lodges surrounding Lake Perez.

The main building and its Lower Classroom and Discovery Room can accommodate groups up to fifty people (or fewer, depending on the room configuration). The main building also has covered and uncovered outdoor porches that can accommodate more people in good weather (noting that the weather should not be relied upon). The Upper Classroom can accommodate up to thirty people (depending on the configuration). Some groups can also utilize our semicovered teaching spaces adjacent to the center and on our trails.

Two picnic areas are available--one outside the Upper Classroom and one in front of the main building across the front yard.

The Bookstore houses a variety of outdoor books for adults and children, Shaver's Creek clothing, outdoor items such as bird feeders, and gifts for adults and children. Members of Shaver's Creek receive discounts on purchases at the Bookstore and on rental of our facilities.
