Retreat Village Reconstruction
Mikell's mission of hospitality will continue with the re-construction of our retreat village of cabins and communal spaces, which will sit naturally in the landscape close to the current retreat village's location.
We are currently working to finalize plans and visuals for this project and intend to break ground in May of 2027. We will maintain the peaceful feel of cabins near Little Toccoa Creek, while increasing the accessibility of each space. Guests can expect the refurbished retreat village to have similar finishes to the Treehouse cabins in upper camp.
“I look forward to camp every year. I’d stay all summer if I could.
It’s the highlight of my year!”
– Brice, 7th grader
While there are many blessings at a place like Camp Mikell, there are also many costs. Along with expenditures for roads, buildings, and a pavilion, this campaign will help to cover a number of general essentials. A much-needed HVAC system for the dining hall. Housekeeping space and commercial appliances away from main camp. Technology upgrades. A maintenance truck. Essentials such as these help keep Mikell running, and preserve it to be enjoyed for generations to come.
Always Needed General Essentials
“I learned about the Bible and want to live a close relationship
with God because of my experience at camp.”
– Zayla, 2nd grader
Completed Projects
Construction of four new cabins on Chapel Hill is complete! Each treehouse is outfitted for up to five occupants, with a queen bed as well as a twin-over-full bunk. These cabins were designed with simplicity and accessibility in mind and each have simple access into the building, roll-in showers, and ADA vanities and desk space.
These cabins can be rented year-round, are near the heart of camp, and have private deck spaces with great views of the valley. We cant wait to share them with you!
Treehouse Cabins are available for booking!
Dedicated Fiber Installed Providing
High-speed Internet
Camp Mikell has overcome years of unreliable internet connectivity thanks to the installation of a dedicated fiber line, bringing true high-speed service across the campus.
This major upgrade means staff, guests and campers can finally enjoy seamless access for work, study, and streaming—making connectivity hassles a thing of the past.
At Mikell, we want to ensure that each guest has the privacy they need. The bathrooms in our dorms have been redesigned and rebuilt to ensure safety and privacy for all who stay in our dorms.
Each bathroom features separate shower stalls, each with its own private changing area, as well as toilet stalls that close and lock. Everyone who comes to Camp Mikell will be loved, respected, and protected, and these renovations help to ensure that they feel that way.

Safety, Road & Landscaping Improvements
Our Camp Mikell driveway and parking areas were inadequate and in disrepair.
Our driveway was one lane, which created frustrating bottlenecks, especially on first and last days of camp, creating poor first and last impressions for families.
The driveway, parking, and drainage areas were deteriorating and unstable, creating serious safety concerns as well. In phase 1 of the campaign, a two-lane road and new six-inch water main were installed.
“At Mikell, I was able to come out of my shell. It’s a place unlike any other where we can become the best version of ourselves.”
-Hannah, 10th grader
