Family Camp
Lake Michigan Camp and Retreat Center is located south of Pentwater on Lake Michigan. FUMC uses this camp usually the first week of August for this wonderful experience. It is a beautiful setting for learning, relaxing, sharing and being with family and friends of FUMC. The camp runs from Sunday afternoon to Saturday morning, but you may choose a shorter duration to meet your schedule.
Platform tents are available, as are cabins and camp sites for your own camping equipment. Picnic tables, electricity, water, firebowl and bathroom facilities are at each campsite or nearby. A beautiful beach with volleyball, softball, tetherball, bicycles, kayaks, hiking trails, singing, and other area activities add to the morning and evening gatherings to learn and sing. Other evening activities may include a movie, dance, capture the flag or a great race.
