A unique experience...

For many years the Martin Luther Church invites youth for a one-week-camp to the Golden Lake. The Camp wants to give children and youth in the age between 8 and 18 the opportunity to have a good time with others and to enjoy the beautiful landscape and activities around the lake, The counsellors are experienced youth leaders of the church, who take care of the needs of the campers and provide an interesting program with creative games and sports. Part of the program are bible-studies which combine biblical stories with outdoor activities. The campers sleep in cabins in groups of 10. Meals are cooked by the staff of the Camp.


Camp Lutherlyn is 150 acres of rolling land with meadows, forest and splendid beaches, located on beautiful Golden Lake, near Pembroke, Ontario. A variety of accommodations is available: - during the summer months, children make use of the roomy cabins, each sleeping 10 - 12 persons. -at other times of the year, accommodations are available in the Director's and Nurse's cabins. - The Four Seasons Lodge provides year round wheelchair accessible accommodation, with indoor washrooms and showers and four bedrooms, each having two upper and two lower bunks; it also includes a kitchen, dining area, and lounge and discussion facilities. -tent and trailer sites (without hook-ups) are available from mid-May to mid-October.

Schmeider Hall offers a spacious kitchen and dining hall with plenty of meeting space around the warmth of an open fireplace. Adjacent to Schmeider Hall is a worship shelter, providing a sheltered area for group activities or mealtime overflow.
