Montreat Conference Center - montreat.org
‍On Friday, September 27, Lake Susan and Flat Creek swelled to historic levels following heavy rainfall brought on by Hurricane Helene. High water levels caused catastrophic flooding throughout the town of Montreat. In addition, high winds brought down trees and power lines, contributing to widespread outages of power and water. Staff have reported that conference center buildings and structures, including the Lake Susan Dam, remain intact but have sustained damage.
