Camp Lodge Schoolhouse/Chapel

This 280-acre secluded, forested site is a favorite among youth organizations and other groups. It's easy to "get back to nature" at this beautiful park, which has been featured in a made-for-television movie.  Cabins, adirondacks (3 sided camp shelters), tent sites, horse corral campsites, and a rustic day lodge complete with cooking facilities welcome all visitors.
