Windy Ridge Retreat Center
Windy Ridge is Southminster's place in the country. It can be yours, too.

A vista at Windy Ridge Windy Ridge is a year-round facility in Greene County, PA, southwest of Pittsburgh (Map & Directions). It has a spacious, winterized lodge and acres of woodlands and fields. Windy Ridge is set apart to encourage spiritual growth, fellowship, and pursuit of active ministry, in keeping with Biblical and Church traditions that affirm the value of retreats for personal renewal.

Windy Ridge is available for one group's use at a time; this lets groups focus on their programs free of distraction. Offered at attractive rates, Windy Ridge is well suited for family reunions and group events as well.

The lodge at Windy Ridge The lodge at Windy Ridge includes large living and dining areas, a game room, and an outdoor deck with commanding view. Sleeping bunks hold forty-five people in six bedrooms, each with bathroom and shower. Full access to a commercial-grade kitchen is included, and on-site catering is also available.


Inside the lodge at Windy Ridge Windy Ridge's 310 acres include miles of wooded trails, a pond, baseball field, setups for basketball, horseshoes, tetherball and volleyball, an outdoor chapel, and a large campfire circle.

Several attractions are also close by. A brief drive down the road, Ryerson Station State Park offers many outdoor activities, including free summer swimming pool access. Other points of interest include Waynesburg College, covered bridges, and, in summer, both the Pioneer Festival and the popular Jacktown Fair (holding claim as the oldest ongoing fair in the USA).

The deck at Windy Ridge For church groups, service organizations, and families alike, Windy Ridge is attractive and affordable. We offer special rates, too, for weekdays, weeklong stays, extended camp programs, and for groups of over 45 people. Please reach us at Southminster Church (phone 412.343.8900; fax 412.343.1930) to learn more about rates and availability.

We look forward to helping you make Windy Ridge your place in the country, too.
