About Good Shepherd Retreat Centre
Good Shepherd Retreat Centre is an oasis of profound peace and spiritual restoration beautifully situated along Findlay Avenue in the lakeside suburb of Meerhof, Hartbeespoort. Administered by the Oblates of Mary Immaculate (OMI) and positioned directly alongside the historic local Catholic Church, this expansive sanctuary provides individuals and faith-based groups with an immersive, nature-rich escape tailored for prayer, quiet contemplation, and community gathering. The beautifully manicured grounds feature expansive panoramic lookouts overlooking the Hartbeespoort Dam and the gentle presence of the Magaliesberg Mountains. Highly regarded for its exceptional calm, warm hospitality, and therapeutic atmosphere, the campus specializes in hosting guided spiritual recollections, liturgical seminars, and church-affiliated retreats. Visitors should note that it functions as a dedicated place of worship and spiritual healing rather than a mainstream, walk-in commercial leisure park.
