CAMP PALMER-CROP WEEKEND Best Kept Secret in Northwest Ohio

Fall 2017 & Spring Retreats will be at

Camp Widewater

Woodland Lodge

Retreat to the woods.  The peaceful surroundings will calm you.  The woodlands will inspire you.  The fresh air will spark new ideas. Relax around the fireplace with friends in the common areas (fire is lit at 5pm nightly).  Scrapbook or Craft in the well lit meeting room on your own personal 8 foot table. Sleep in one of the 5 dorm rooms (2 private-4 person rooms with private bathrooms & 3 dorm style rooms with bathrooms right around the corner). The crops are limited to just 16 people, so large groups can sleep together and small groups can have a private room. 

Meal planning is a breeze with such a small number of people. Utilize the kitchenette by using the oven, microwave, family sized fridge, coffee pots and lots of counter space to bring in your own crock-pots (NO STOVETOP). The group is divided up by friends, two weeks in advance of weekend and assigned to purchase and make one meal. Trying and sharing new recipes has all just become another fun Camp Palmer tradition.

And boiling water is always on tap for coffee, tea or try one of Kim's exclusive Cocoas . Need a break from scraping? Take a walk around the corner to Harrison Lake State Park.
