★★★★★jeff overtonWe have many camps and retreats here. The place is always so clean and well maintained and the staff is friendly. So much to do, highly recommend.
★★★★★Shauney ClarkAbsolutely fantastic camp experience! There were fun activities for all ages—swimming, kayaking, and so much more! The food was incredible, the housing was super comfortable, the staff are delightful, and the ice cream bar was the perfect cherry on top. We can’t wait to come back! Here are photos from our international food night, fun in the pool, and the great playground!
★★★★★Todd BruntonWhat a great place and a wonderful group of people who manage the place. We go to family camp each year and our kids have such great memories. Past several years I've had privileged of meeting there with my dad, sisters and extended family. Camp grounds get nicer every year. Have great fun swimming in the lake or indoor pool, riding 4 wheelers, using the gun range, horse shoes, and hiking the grounds. This year they added pickle ball courts. Other attractions are not far - elephant rock, hiking... We will continue to make it a destination for years to come.
★★★★★cheri griggsPinecrest Camp has been host to camping events since the 1940's. It's been amazing to watch the improvements and updates they've engaged in over the years. They are ADA equipped and continue to make improvements to their housing units regularly. They offer a variety of activities: volleyball, fishing, paddleboats, minature golf, ball field, shooting range, swimming, archery, pickle ball, gagaball and a great playground area for kids, to name a few. The staff is always helpful and willing to do whatever they can to make each scheduled event memorable. Having been part of directing kids' camps, I can attest to this fact. The setting is amazing! God's presence is evident, impacting & transforming lives consistently. The fact the staff desires this as the end result for those who come for a biblical, spiritual encounter, is clear by the way they provide a caring experience for all who use the campground.
★★★★★Rev Sherii ParrettOur UPCI organization uses this facility every year. I went as a worker. The dorms had about 30 bunks or more in the one we were in. Take your own bedding and fan. It's camp. Food is wonderful. Staff is amazing and Helpful. The Spirit of God moved mightily and the Kids had fun!!
