★★★★★Ella CaliffPortage lake is appcolutely incredible! Truly reviving. Ive been going there for 4 years now and thats where I found christ. God bless and I hope you can come!
★★★★★Jonah DeLeeuwMy goodness this place rocks. I started going here in Junior high and I've had the time of my life here ever since. The staff is amazing, everyone is supportive and loving, and to top it all off, you get to grow closer to god. The only thing that sucks is going home after a week of fun. Definitely recommend.
★★★★★Nic MizeurThe camp always stayed open late to accommodate my college cross country team and the staff were always so friendly and the property was always well maintained. I swung by to show my wife who has never been here but unfortunately the whole camp was closed to unauthorized visitors due to COVID
