Giving Tuesday Campaign Raises Money for Camp Scholarships November 2018 Dear Friends...
Welcome to Lake Huron Retreat Center
On the “sunrise” side of the “mitten” state, Lake Huron Retreat Center is known for its expansive views of Lake Huron. On just about any given day guests will rise early to stroll across the beach and catch a glimpse of the glorious sunrise sparkling across the great waters. While the site just north of Port Huron, Michigan, has been a United Methodist camp since 1946, it was completely remodeled in 1999 and opened in 2000 as a full-service adult retreat center dedicated to Christian hospitality. Its popular meeting rooms, chapel, dining hall and guest rooms are comfortable and modern. It’s a peaceful antidote to today’s busy lifestyle. In 2017 the “At the Water’s Edge” guest cottage opened for clergy and laity to book personal escapes for spiritual rest and relaxation.

Our other weekend retreat group is "Scrappy Chicks". They've enjoyed a weekend of creating wonderful memories that will undoubtedly become family treasures. Thanks for bringing your event to our facility!
One of our retreat groups this weekend is a talented group of Knitters. They're enjoying conversation around a warm fireplace as they work their craft. We're blessed to have them with us with snowy weekend!
What a wonderful group of friends! We come here twice a year for our Knitting and Crocheting weekend of fun!
My favorite place. I'll be there next month.
