Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.

Our summer camps are open to children in grades 1 through 12, while our mid-winter retreat in January is meant for grades 7 to 12. We also offer retreats for adult men and women. At MLCC, we understand the importance of growing in knowledge of the Lord and becoming part of a Christian community. Our summer and winter camps are designed to help campers do just that. We are committed to creating a safe and enriching environment where campers can learn and grow in their faith. We also provide retreats for adults where men and women can build relationships with each other and God. Our retreats create an atmosphere of encouragement and open dialogue, allowing adults to gain a deeper understanding of the Bible and their faith in God.
