The Methodist Church worshiping God in nature
Mechuwana is located on more than 200 acres of forest land and offers a peaceful, natural setting. The camp borders Lower Narrows Pond and Lake Annabessacook. Located on the property are nature trails, boat dock, and a swimming area, along with many cabins, a theatre, a chapel, dining hall, and more. We also have basketball courts and a sports field.
Each season brings a new life to the camp...in the fall we are amazed at the colors around the lake; in winter we ski on the trails and have campfires; in spring we look for the first wildflowers along the road; and in the summer we come alive with over 1000 campers. We hope you come and enjoy God's creation in this place called Mechuwana.
