★★★★★Caira EricksonOur college hosted a retreat at Lake Retreat this past weekend, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The food was by far some of the best we’ve ever had at a camp, and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. Hilary was a wonderful host, and Melissa guided us through the booking process with excellence. The cabins and lodge were in great condition—clean, comfortable, and perfect for our students, whose ages ranged from 18 to 69. Everyone felt well taken care of. We give Lake Retreat a 10/10 and highly recommend it for adult groups, youth camps, or any church event!
★★★★★Alex BuchananI visited for the first time with our local church for a retreat. This camp is an awesome getaway, perfect for retreats and outdoor activities. There are several cozy cabins scattered around the lake, hearty meals served three times a day, a big gym for group games, and plenty of nearby trails to wander and explore.

This is a grieving camp for kids ages 4 to 12 they also have a teen camp for 13 to 17. Absolutely amazing weekend experience! My 3 kids ages 8,10,12 thrived from such a wonderful weekend.

★★★★★Lindsee HillLake Retreat is a place full of so many wonderful memories for me from when I attended youth retreats as a kid! Amazingly enough, all these years later I have the opportunity to work here and I am so blessed by all the groups I see coming here to experience God in such a beautiful place. The view over the lake is breathtaking when I stop and look at it. I am so thankful for this place! I hope you will enjoy Lake Retreat also!
