Vulture Hall - Dining Hall
Our dining facility is called “Vulture Hall.” It is a large facility that can hold 320 people. We usually serve our meals family style to encourage community and conversation!
Our kitchen staff are exceptional; they are dedicated to serving healthy meals that comply with the Canada Food Guide to Healthy Eating. There are always vegetarian options and we can accommodate many other special dietary needs (ie. Allergies, kosher-style, vegan, theme nights, etc.)
After a full day of running around you won’t go to bed hungry, because we always serve an evening snack!

Rec Hall
Our Rec Hall is a camp classic and was built about 75 years ago! The stage, large open space, and character of the building create the perfect atmosphere for talent shows, indoor games, evening activities and skit nights!
No need to bring your own costumes as we have a unique tickle-trunk and props area!

The Chapel
The Chapel, nestled in the woods, is one of the most peaceful buildings at camp. This very old building underwent an extensive renovation in the summer of 2005 which included the beautifully crafted stained glass windows, sky lights and refinished hard wood floors that make this a building every camper and client cherishes.
This non-denominational chapel is perfect for small group meetings, weddings with up to 110 guests, meditation and reflection.
Please call for a tour for weddings. We offer a complete wedding package perfect for that outdoor couple who wants their guests to have a real adventurous experience!
