At DuBois Center, our facilities are divided into two sides of the lake – Main Camp and the Rustic Village. The horse barn and waterfront are located between the two sides of the lake.

Main Camp
This section of camp is located on the east side of the main lake, closest to the camp entrance. It is home to Oak Lodge, Hickory Lodge and our cottages.
- Oak Lodge: This is the main building around which the rest of the camp is built. Our kitchen and dining room are located here. We serve delicious meals for groups of up to 140. Adjacent to the dining area is a versatile meeting room and sitting area. There is also a guest room with two beds – event coordinators or special guests often stay in this room. The lower level has an additional meeting room, a small game room (ping pong, air hockey, billiards), and an arts and crafts space. Projector equipment is available to assist with your meetings and presentations. The spacious porch overlooking the lake invites guests to enjoy a leisurely cup of coffee at sunrise or take time for reflection.
- Hickory Lodge: Just a few steps from Oak Lodge, this self-contained, year-round retreat facility has a quiet patio and great view of the lake. Hickory Lodge sleeps groups of up to 29 people in 11 bedrooms. The bedrooms have several configurations of double and twin beds (one room has a set of bunk beds) with centrally located bathrooms and showers. The versatile great room can be easily organized for work sessions with multiple activities or for relaxing around the fireplace after a day of exploring. A conveniently located kitchenette completes the comfortable feel of this sleeping lodge. Hickory Lodge is just a short distance from Roadside Cottage. Many groups utilize these two facilities together.
- The Cottages: We have four comfortable cottages to offer groups. Lakeside, Woodside and Coveside are situated near the lake and Roadside is in close proximity to Oak and Hickory Lodges. All cottages feature two bedrooms with 8-10 comfortable bunk beds each and accompanying restrooms and showers. Each cottage can accommodate 16-20 people. Three of the cottages feature stone fireplaces and lounge furniture in the middle rooms and have decks with peaceful views. Roadside is accessible for people with limited mobility but does not have a fireplace.
The Rustic Village
Located across the lake from Main Camp. The Rustic Village features three cabin sites with a centrally located shower house and meeting shelter. These cabins are 4 plywood walls with screened windows, ceiling fans, lights, and power outlets.
- Rustic Cabin Sites: Together, Fisherman’s Ridge, Sassafrass Hill and Wildwood can accommodate up to 60 campers in rustic cabins. Each cabin has up to four sets of bunk beds.
Horse Barn
The Barn is home to our equestrian program and our 15 beautiful riding horses. Miles of trails on our camp are waiting to be explored. Rides can be arranged – in advance – for your retreats or event. During our summer camps, campers learn to care for horses, ride the trails and participate in barn chores. Schools participating in our School Camp program also have the option to ride horses.
Waterfront
Swimming, boating and fishing are all part of the waterfront experience. Groups utilizing the waterfront must have certified lifeguard(s) present. Please contact the DuBois Center office for more details.
- Swimming Area: Certified lifeguards care for our beach and swimming area, which is divided into a shallow and deep end. Outside the swimming area sits our Water Mat. Life jackets are required for all activities outside the designated swimming area. Swimming is only allowed from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
- Hawk’s Nest: The boathouse is home to canoes, kayaks, pontoon boats, life jackets and rescue equipment.
