Help us open or close HopeWood Shores and spend a relaxing night on Lake Erie afterwards.

Site Overview
Nestled on 66 wooded acres overlooking Lake Erie, HopeWood Shores is your place apart.
The soothing sound of waves, breathtaking sunsets, and birds chirping overhead on a hike invite you to retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Here, you can slow down, have fun, and reconnect with faith, family, and friends.

Enjoy a week of rest and renewal for your entire family on the shores of Lake Erie.
“We truly got to disconnect from everything and just be in the moment and just be in that place with God.”
Jessica Crute
“I find camp to be a great place where kids can just ask questions and see that faith is connected to everyday life and everything we do… I wouldn’t be in seminary if it weren’t for camp.”
Jennie WhiteSummer Staff
“I often tell friends that [HopeWood Shores] helped me raise my kids (in the faith)! It is a mountaintop ‘Village’ where all ages care for one another as we feel God’s love for us.”
