One of the best places in the great outdoors! Awesome Directors & Staff. The atmosphere is entirely family friendly. Plenty of outdoors activities, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, a giant slide and growing closer to God amongst His Glorious Creation.

Amazing church camp! Kids love it, and for good reason. The camp owners are super kind and involved with every kid. The camp itself is beautiful and covers a large area allowing plenty of opportunity to see God's creation. The best part though, they actually share the gospel with every camper. Kids will leave with new memories and great friends.

The energy I feel here is very...holy and sacred. I might be biased from all the memories but when at this camp I feel very connected with the Divine Source. Highly recommend people donating resources to help keep the remodeling going for future generations to experience this land the way it should be. ❤🏡🚣‍♀️🕉☮
