NOTHING LIKE ANYTHING IN YOUR BACKYARD.
RIGHT IN YOUR BACKYARD. NOTHING LIKE ANYTHING IN YOUR BACKYARD.
Riverstone sits on a 100-acre private island on the Catawba River. The island has been home to Camp Canaan since 2009, a gathering place rooted in community and the transformative power of a genuinely beautiful natural setting. Riverstone brings that same setting to professional and organizational groups.
There is nowhere else like it in the Southeast.
PURPOSEFULLY BUILT FOR GATHERING.
Riverstone at Canaan is a conference and retreat center, purpose-built for the groups that come here to do something meaningful together. We exist for the team that needs to get out of the office to get the real work done.
We host half-day sessions, full-day intensives, and multi-day overnight retreats for corporate teams, nonprofits, community organizations, and leadership groups of all kinds.
A SETTING UNLIKE ANY OTHER MEETING SPACE.
The Riverstone building offers 17,548 sq ft of thoughtfully designed gathering space,
including the main hall, dedicated breakout sections, and private upstairs rooms.
Every configuration is available to your group.

THE PROPERTY HAS HISTORY.
THE BUILDING IS BRAND NEW.
While Riverstone at Canaan may be a brand new facility,
groups have been gathering on this island for 10+ years. If you've been looking for a gathering space that's genuinely different, one where you'll never feel like just a number on our calendar,
we’d love to connect with you.
