Welcome to Wanake! – The Beautiful, Spiritual Place among the Hills

Wanake offers your family a safe, fun place to explore God’s creation and build relationships with God, others, and ourselves.  Deeper understandings are built and new skills developed as campers and counselors live, laugh, study, create, work, and play in a Christ-centered environment in the out-of-doors.  Counselors serve as mentors and role models while campers learn to live in community, building strong friendships and leadership skills.

Wanake’s 250 acres and facilities provide a place where, through a variety of fun activities and relationships building, campers develop in their faith.

I look forward to welcoming your family for an adventure that impacts lives for a lifetime and beyond!

Blessings, Julie Lautt, director

Outdoor Adventure Programs

The Rock Lodge
How cool would it be to sleep in a hammock-style bed, in a tree fort, in the woods? The Rock Lodge features a bouldering wall that campers climb up into the structure from ground level. (Bouldering is rock climbing horizontally rather than vertically). The second floor is a picnic shelter, which makes for a great place to do activities, out of the sun/rain. Campers climb in to their bedrooms up a built–in ladder through a trap door. Hammock-style beds hang from the ceiling of the structure as campers enjoy sleeping in the treetops. The top floor is completely enclosed for safety and security. Enjoy the rustic atmosphere while sleeping in the stratosphere 30-feet off the ground. There is fresh drinkable water on site, no electricity, and the nearest bathroom is a commercial portable toilet around the corner from the living space. Campers shower in main camp. The Rock Lodge is sure to be one of the coolest places you have ever slept!

The Survival Cabin
As the legend goes ... a plane crash landed in the back woods of Wanake. No one was hurt. The passengers got out, and before night fell, they constructed a shelter- the Survival Cabin. They had a great night’s sleep, woke up the next morning to the sound of campers hiking over the hill, and were saved. In gratitude, they gifted Wanake their cabin and plane. Of course this is a legend! This completely enclosed cabin has a canvas roof and the rustic feel of a cabin constructed by crash survivors. The Survival Cabin offers an authentic survivalist experience with no electricity in a secluded environment. It is located near the composting toilet and the hand washing (teeth brushing - face washing) station. Campers shower in main camp.
