Our story
A hill people came to for quiet.
Mt. Zion Haven sits on the peak of a hill in Tambler, General Santos City. The calm that brought people here long ago is still the reason people come today.
Heritage
Once a prayer mountain.
For years, people walked up this hill to be still. They came to think, to rest, and to pray. Because of that, everyone called it a prayer mountain.
We keep that name in mind. It is part of the history of the place, and it is where our calm comes from. Church groups still come here for retreats and quiet days, and we are glad they do. We are a venue rather than a church, and the hill is open to everyone, whatever you believe.
Two words guide how we run it. Serenity, because a hilltop should feel quiet. Harmony, because a good day feels like everything fits together.
Today
What the venue is now.
The hill is still quiet. We added what a celebration, a retreat, or a night under the stars needs, and nothing more.
-
On the peak
The venue is at the top of the hill. You can see green hills, a mountain peak across the valley, the city, and the bay behind it. At night you look over the city lights.
-
Cool air, open sky
It is higher than the city, so the air is cooler. Late afternoon is the nicest time to arrive. The sky changes fast at that hour.
-
One place for the whole day
The pavilion, the pool, the rooms, the camping ground, and the parking are all on the same grounds. Your guests arrive once and stay.
-
Kept simple
We keep the grounds plain and clean. The view is the main thing here, so we try not to get in its way.
