A scenic and tranquil meeting place

Our day-use facility is surrounded by 90 lakefront acres belonging to Friends Lake Cooperative Community in Chelsea. In operation since 1994, we offer an ideal change-of-pace setting for your conferences, workshops, retreats, trainings, educational programs and special events. The Center is available by reservation year round and is efficiently designed to accommodate a variety of group activities.

“We need to preserve a few places, a few samples of primeval country
so that when the pace gets too fast we can look at it, think about it,
contemplate it, and somehow restore equanimity to our souls.”

– Sigurd Olson
