The Wilderness Campground is a wooded camping area located near the entrance of Sandy Cove and is approximately 1 mile from the main conference center. The Wilderness Campground provides families with a quiet and peaceful camping setting. The Wilderness Campground is the home of all seasonal campers! Plus there are a few additional sites for non-seasonal campers. Some sites are ideal for tent campers with no hookups provided. Other sites can accommodate trailers or motor homes, with 2 point hookups available (water and electric). New in 2010: Honey Wagon service! There is also a dump station. All sites have fire rings and picnic tables. There is a centrally located bathhouse with free restroom and hot shower facilities, a pavilion and a playground. Maximum occupancy: 8 people per site. A two-night minimum stay is required.

Our seasonal campers share…

It's a great place for the kids to be! They have a great time. When you know your kids are happy, it's easier to relax and enjoy your time together.

Community is formed with the other seasonal campers! It's great to have friendships with other families ... like-minded, similar value system ... Fellowship becomes a part of the everyday!

You can listen to all the speakers all summer – it’s such a blessing!ClubCove during Summer Together is wonderful and the staff so helpful.

You don't have to set up your camper every time you come!

Sandy Cove is a beautiful, peaceful place. A great value - a lot for your money - priceless.

As a Sandy Cove seasonal camper in the Wilderness Campground, you may attend any of the Sandy Cove programs – listen to any of the event speakers – from May to September. It’s all included.
