★★★★★John BreedingWas out there for a church activity. Camp facility was much improved. Know the Camp director personally. Haven't talked to him in a while. Came close to contacting him about an upcoming conference.

★★★★★Marc LayAwesome place for weekend or week long camps or family outings! Our organization, OCCP, has been putting on a weekend camp at Forest Lake for over 10 years! The current caretakers of the camp are so great and easy to work with!
