Camp Newaygo is the BEST!

It honestly doesn't get better than Camp Newaygo for a wedding venue. I had the honor of planning a wedding there this past September for a lovely couple. Whitney and her team made planning a breeze. They handled everything from catering, set up, guest management, and more! They had tons of great vendor recommendations, and the weekend went beautifully! I am so grateful for all their help and highly recommend you have your wedding here!

Everything was absolutely perfect

Everything about Camp Newaygo was amazing! The food was delicious, camp staff was always smiling and ready to lend a hand (or jump in on the party!), and accommodations were great! Even before the wedding, Camp Newaygo was always easy to get in touch with and so helpful throughout the planning process. We had quite a few guests nervous about going to camp for a weekend-long wedding, but people are still talking about how amazing everything was and asking when we can go back. Our Friday - Monday celebration was absolutely perfect and my husband and I attribute a big part of that to Canp Newaygo!
