Food & Lodging

Our MHO Base sits on 20 acres of forested land just 15 minutes south of Huntsville, with Mary Lake only a short walk away. Students can enjoy a swim, take in the sunrise or sunset from the beach, or explore nearby trails for running, biking, or walking. Evenings often end gathered around the fire pit — a perfect spot to relax, share stories, and connect with nature.

We offer a range of comfortable onsite accommodation and meal options during courses:

Accommodation Options

  • Tent Camping – $40 for the duration of the course. Please bring your own camping gear.
