We got served juicy chicken tenders, mashed potatoes, green beans, casserole, dinner rolls, and chocolate chip cookies. They also had a salad bar on the side. The lake is nice and calm. They have paddle boarding , canoeing, and the blob in the water. They also have a pool and basketball courts. The cabins are okay. It's pretty hot and humid on a September day, so make sure to turn the AC down. I wiped down the mattress with a Clorox wipe and it turned from white to brown. Pretty good place for a retreat. Not a good place for a neat freak.

I have been taking groups camping for years. I met Luke Milam and discovered Apologia Outdoors…read moreearlier this year and could not be more pleased. I have been on 2 trips with Apologia and will continue to use them for every camping trip I take from here on out. Their knowledge of the outdoors and ability to teach survival skills has made our trips both fun and unique. The most important element in my opinion is that they use God's creation to teach the truths about who God is and the reality of His tremendous Gospel. I cannot reguard this ministry more highly and look forward to many more trips with them.

From the owner: Apologia Outdoors commits to having exceptional stewardship of God's opportunities and resources to…read moreequip God's people to build His church through outdoor ministry. Our definition of outdoor ministry is: "Using creation as a tool to reach people for Christ." Apologia Outdoors exposes the worldly misconception about possessions through wilderness experiences. God taught His people to pack light for maximum effectiveness. It is remarkable how much people enjoy outdoor experiences with so few material belongings. God's create is a natural setting to teach a counter cultural worldview that we need very few material possessions to enjoy a Godly life. Apologia Outdoors designs its trips to equip God's people to share Christ's love in word and deed. This is done by using creation as a stage to provide the necessary raining for individuals and churches. Apologia Outdoors views every believer as a missionary, and our passion is to evangelize the world by growing world-changing leaders. Even after the trip is over, it is our intent that these missionaries nurture disciples that nurture disciples. It is Biblical for every believer to show leadership in fulfilling the Great Commiss

We have visited a few times and they offer many services such as paint pottery, (the main focus), art classes, art history lessons, and more. They also offer summer classes geared towards children and young adults alike. The studio is small, yes, however the creativity shines in all areas. You can just *feel* the love the owners have for this little establishment. My son and I will be coming back soon for art classes. Absolutely wonderful little studio, I am so glad I gave this a try. We will be back very soon.

I could drop off any day during the week but they only fire and pick up on Saturday. I went multiple times over the next couple weeks trying to drop off and even though posted hours said open their doors were locked. I finally pick up the kids pottery on a Saturday and am able to drop mine off. go back the following Saturday and they are closed even though posted hours are open. I call ahead the next Saturday bc I don't want to drive 45 minutes and they repeatedly don't answer the phone. I take my chances and they are open!! Now to get my cup, but wait it has black on it tracing half a name and then another kids name is fully traces in black...I didn't use black paint! what an expensive waste of our families time and complete disappointment.
