The Honeymoon Cottage is the only sleeping quarters original to the camp, dating back to 1897. It is the last of many identical cabins that dotted the grounds of Sturtevant’s Camp. It was named “The Honeymoon Cottage” by the Methodist Church after they purchased the camp in 1954.
Today the cottage is outfitted with a double bed and a set of bunk beds. There is a a propane heater for those chilly nights. This cabin is close to the common grounds and the dining hall, yet oriented as to provide privacy. It is also the cabin closest to the creek.
This quaint little abode is not just for newlyweds. It is also ideal for a quick over-night stay in the mountains with a light pack, when you don’t have the time or inclination to hassle with a tent. Even the blankets are provided. And, of course, you get to enjoy a hot shower in the morning.
The Honeymoon Cottage is available only to large group reservations in the main area, as needed.
