Shared Activities
Twin Lakes is situated on 580 acres with two lakes, rolling hills, woods and areas where there are countless opportunities for a wide range of activities. Our lakes provide opportunities for fishing and canoeing. Organize a team sport on our game field complete with volleyball net, soccer goals, backstop, and plenty of room for any sport or game you might want to play. Shoot some hoops in our covered basketball pavilion that also houses a stage and picnic tables. Kids — and kids at heart — enjoy our lookout tower, multi-level tree house and playground. Play hard or take a quiet walk along our trails. With all this available, you won’t have a hard time finding something to do.
Activity Field
The Activity Field is downhill from the Lookout Tower and adjacent to the Pavilion. There is room on the Activity Field for hundreds of people to play. You can enjoy ultimate frisbee, soccer, football, and even baseball, softball or kickball. We have a well supplied shed filled with athletic equipment that is at your disposal. In addition, there is a volleyball net and a softball backstop already set up.
Canoeing
Strap on a life jacket and paddle out on our south lake. All that you need is available for you to enjoy some free time cruising around on the water. Just watch out for Beaver Sharks!
Disc Golf
Try your hand at our 9-hole disc golf course situated throughout the rolling hills at the entrance to our campground. Play just for fun, or grab a score card to keep track of who the real winner is.
Hammock Land
You can take the rafts, canoe across the North Lake, or even take bridges and trails to get to one of our favorite spots at Twin Lakes — Hammock Land. It is just across the North Lake from some of the busiest places at Twin Lakes, but it is a great spot to take a nap or just kick back with friends in the trees. There are several hammocks and even a couple of picnic tables.
Horseshoes
If you are looking for a good standby activity, horseshoes is an extremely fun and easy game that everyone enjoys. Located near the treehouse, the horseshoe pit is a simple pleasure that will keep you entertained for hours.
Human Foosball
Another great option for large groups is our Human Foosball court. Just like on the game table, two teams challenge one another to a game of soccer, but with the added obstacle of moving in tandem alongside your teammates.
Lookout Tower
The Lookout Tower sits atop one of the highest ridges on the Twin Lakes’ property. Guests are encouraged to climb up this 100-foot structure and take a look out over the beautiful setting. It’s the perfect spot to watch the sun rise or set!
Octoball
One of our most recent additions is a large Octoball court. This game has its own set of rules, and is fast, fun, and easy to learn. Get your whole group in on the action!
Pavilion
The Pavilion houses a covered full court for basketball. It also has several four-square courts and all the basketball and playground balls you could ever need. There are picnic tables surrounding the basketball court which makes it a great place to hang out and stay in the shade. There is also a large stage area that has many uses. Bathrooms are available behind the stage for your use.
Rafts
There are several activities available on the North Lake. From the Treehouse area, you can take the pier to the rafts and pull yourself across the lake to Hammock Land. There are two rafts; the first of which takes you from the Treehouse area to the Island (It may, or may not, have a nickname. Ask us about it). The second raft takes you from the Island to Hammock Land. If no one else needs them you are even welcome to fish from the rafts.
South Beach
On the South Beach, you have a pick of either canoeing or beach volleyball. The South Beach is located right in the center of camp and is a great place to hang out. We keep lifejackets, paddles, and volleyballs on hand so all you have to do is show up.
Tennis Courts
Enjoy our two tennis courts near the heart of camp. You can use the racquets and balls that are provided in the equipment closet on the courts or bring your own.
TreeHouse
One of the most popular and unique recreation areas is the Treehouse area. This area boasts a 3-story Treehouse with a tube slide that exits from the first level. There are also four-square courts, a toddler playground, jungle gym, swing set, tether-ball, Octoball, and also several giant v-swings, which everyone loves.
Walking Trails
If you simply want to enjoy the beauty of God’s creation, paved walking trails wind their way all over the developed parts of the campus. There are benches and picnic tables scattered around Twin Lakes, all of which have a view of the beautiful lakes and woods. For those of you who want a more rugged experience, there are miles of less developed trails around the Outback area of the campus.
