Our four-season lodge sleeps up to 26 people between two bunk rooms, and features a large sunny gathering space with a central fireplace, and a deck with a beautiful view of the Amnicon River valley. Located right in the heart of base camp, this space was designed to facilitate community building with a ‘biggest sleepover ever’ kind of vibe.

Our seasonal retreat facility is the perfect blend of comfort and camping. Located a 10-15 minute walk away from base camp, you’ll get to sleep in real beds while listening to the waves on Lake Superior. With easy access to our large sandy beach, a picnic pavilion, and multiple campfire options, Adizokan is great for youth events & family retreats.
“On a retreat,
away from the cares and responsibilities of daily life,
people finally have the space and time for
reflection, prayer, fun, worship, relationship building, and great experiences.
Amnicon is easy to get to, only 30 minutes from Duluth, but you feel like you are
miles away from the demands of life.”
