In the 1920s, Asa and Anna Climenhaga built their on-campus homestead in part to become better connected to the campus and its students. Asa Climenhaga, our first dean, and his wife, Anna, a Latin teacher, were known for opening their home to countless relatives, students, and guests of the University. It is a fitting tribute to the Climenhagas to preserve this stately homestead as a steady reminder of their Christian hospitality and their service to Messiah University for more than half a century. Today this facility houses beautifully furnished guest rooms, meeting rooms and conference facilities.

The Climenhaga Homestead offers accommodations featuring:

• Four beautifully-appointed guest suites
• Each guest suite includes bedroom, individual sun room and private bath
• In-room telephone, cable TV and internet connection
• Individual coffeemaker and hospitality basket in each room
• Access to first floor parlor
• Outdoor patio and garden areas
• Located near the Yellow Breeches Creek and the Covered Bridge.

The McBeth Alumni Center Conference Room offers:

• Meeting space for up to 24 persons
• Full audio-visual capabilities
• Internet connection
• Hospitality area with sink
