Lake Michigan. The area has a population of about 5,000 and like the rest of our beautiful state,
boasts lots of streams, lakes and rivers.

least 5 miles of paved trails, 3 within the city limits.
In the area – within 10-30 minutes – there are over 160 miles of ORV trails. We have maps available
at our camp store if you’d like to try some out.
The area features a couple of golf courses, a bowling alley, grocery stores, several fast-food places,
night-clubs, a downtown hotel, cafes & restaurants, drug stores, hardware stores and variety shops.
Spring Hill Christian Camps are west and north of the city.
