Eliot Camps are held at the Seabeck Conference Center, located in the town of Seabeck, Washington, on Hood Canal. (A 60 mile drive from SeaTac airport.)
The Conference Center includes over 90 acres with housing, meeting areas, dining hall, woods, a lagoon, beach access on Hood Canal, the Cathedral in the Woods, trails, a swimming platform, tennis courts, volleyball, two children's playgrounds, ping pong, an outdoor fire circle with built-in seating, an outdoor amphitheater, and a craft center.
The Meeting House, built in 1857, was once the Mess Hall for the mill and community center. Today it serves as an auditorium on the Conference Center grounds. The bell that once called the mill hands to meals now calls campers to meals and services. Many of the houses built by early pioneers have been converted into guest lodging.
Eliot Institute and other Unitarian Universalist groups are the most frequent users of the Seabeck Conference Center.
Seabeck was a busy logging town and seaport more than a century ago. Seabeck today consists of the Seabeck Conference Center and the surrounding community, including an historic cemetery, pizza, massage therapy, café, and espresso businesses, and the marina, and a general store.
Silverdale, the closest city, has supermarkets, pharmacies and a mall. It is a 15 minute drive from Seabeck. Scenic Beach State Park is two miles south and west of Seabeck. It has beautiful woods, a picnic area and beach, and a spectacular view.

Eliot is magical. Caring people, love, music, intimacy, children and adults together. What more could anybody want?Longtime Elioteer from Oregon
