Both camps have two-story, log-style cabins for about 18-21 campers with indoor bathrooms and hot water. Dining halls are large communal buildings centrally located on the camp. Camp Lincoln offers an extremely large athletic field for various events and sporting activities/games, as well as a sand volleyball court, multiple tetherball courts, two basketball courts, 4 tennis courts, and an indoor building for rainy-day activities and skit nights. Camp Lake Hubert offers two smaller athletic fields, two basketball courts, a sand volleyball pit, tetherball courts, four tennis courts, and a smaller, private lake for fishing, kayaking, and canoeing. As both camps are located right on the shores of Lake Hubert, they both offer fully-equipped waterfronts for swimming, sailing, windsurfing, fishing, water games, etc.

As brother-sister camps, they are located across the lake from each other, with separate facilities and activities, but under the same ownership and long-standing mission and purpose. Alumni from all across the USA and around the world talk with pride about their wonderful memories and the great times at Camp Lincoln and Camp Lake Hubert.

But camp is more than fun. It is about meeting new friends, expanding ones interests, learning new skills, and developing important life skills. We are confident that you will discover more about yourself in the process.

Our commitment to five Core Values helps create an environment that is caring, nurturing and positive. With more than 30 land and water activities, plus special adventure trips, you will have plenty of opportunity to develop new interests and skills, and to explore nature’s wonderland.
