This building serves as our primary large group meeting room, capable of seating more than 270 occupants. Dimensions of main room: 40' x 34'. Around the building there are several side rooms which are used as small seminar rooms for study groups. On the back side of the Main Deck is the Snack Shack, our general store. T-shirts, sweatshirts, candy, drinks, postcards, books, are all available for our guests. We also offer various toiletries and necessities like flashlights, batteries, toothbrushes, etc.

Lighthouse Dining Room and Veranda

The largest building in camp, the Lighthouse serves primarily as our dining hall and kitchen. The dining area is split into an indoor area and an outdoor veranda. Meals are served buffet style. Adult groups have access to a beverage bar with full-time access to hot drinks like tea and coffee. Additionally, the lower level of the Lighthouse also has a seminar room and our camp office.

Upon request, this room can be outfitted with portable, four-channel sound system, flat screen TV with DVD player or with wall screen and portable LCD projector.

Boat House Classroom

Newly refurbished with open beam ceiling and varnished paneling, this venue is closest to the ocean and opens to a large outdoor deck through two large French doors. The room is approximately 28' x 12' and can accommodate 25 around a large center table (board room style) or about 35 set up theater style with rows of chairs, facing the large picture window that frames the iconic CBS pier and Long Point.

Outdoor Amphitheater and Fire Ring

This gorgeous venue has a panoramic view of the ocean, CBS pier, Long Point and far-off glow of Long Beach Harbor lights after sunset. Benches, built into the sculpted contour of the hillside, provide seating for about 250, a few more with the addition of wooden benches and beachside adirondack chairs pulled up to outer edges of venue. A portable sound system can be set up for special events but this venue is shared when multiple groups are using camp to make use of built-in fire ring which is just steps from the high tide line.
