Why can't I book a room from September - April?

The Cottages at Lakeshore is home for seventy college graduates from September to April. These young adults spend eight months in a  discipleship and leadership program, called The Institute, where they are equipped with the truth of God’s Word and they establish confidence in what they believe and why. The result of their time can be genuine transformation from brokenness to living with freedom and purpose as they learn about the character of God.  The mission of The Institute is to equip men and women with Biblical skills for a lifetime of ministry. These students go on to work in the medical field, education, law, business, and ministry.
