Why Beechpoint is special…
From forest to shoreline, Beechpoint’s 83 acres offer splendid moments of beauty and endless hours of recreation. Each activity is well planned and safely supervised to help the camper learn social, mental and spiritual lesson as well as have a great time!
Founded in 1959, Beechpoint continues to provide quality programming, caring staff, and great home-style meals for your camp experience.
Along with the exciting and new adventures each camper has, we feel that the real value comes from what is built on their understanding of God, and their personal relationship with Him. That is what lasts! Therefore, cabin leaders are carefully chosen and prepared to guide their cabin and campers through each activity and every teachable moment.
Through this training, it is our desire that each child will learn to “…follow the truth at all times - speaking truly, dealing truly, living truly, and so become more in every way like Christ…” “Ephesians 4:15 (Living Bible)
Day Camp

Resident Camp
An action-oriented program for boys and girls ages 8-14. Our age specific approach provides recreation appropriate for each camper and a new experience every year! Cabin groups are divided by age and become the “family group” for the week. Campers go with both of their cabin leaders from activity to activity. Sessions are from Sunday to Friday. It will be the greatest week of the summer! We guarantee it!

Discipleship
The learning opportunities do not stop after a week of camp. Children who desire to grow in their relationship with Christ have the opportunity to enroll in Partners in Discipleship. This program keeps contact with them through the year and gives them guided opportunities to grow in various Christian disciplines.
Cabin Leaders
Every cabin leader is carefully screened regarding Christian commitment and general manner of life. Each attends pre-camp and on-going training sessions and is paired with another college-aged adult to maintain a 1 to 5 counselor to camper ratio.
Facilities
Beechpoint offers a scenic setting for four season weekend retreats, and summer camps. The lodge, cabins, and spacious meeting rooms, all share a great view of the lake and adjoining woods. A high-school sized gym, complete with hardwood floor and climbing wall, adds a great dimension for quality athletic recreation.
For team growth and leadership development, a challenge course is available to retreat and day-groups for a facilitated experience. Contact us for more information.
