Clearwater Forest
A stunningly beautiful camp and retreat setting on Clearwater Lake in central Minnesota, Clearwater Forest has been changing lives in God’s woods and waters since 1954. Come find beauty, peace, renewal, joy, connection and spirit, while enjoying acres of pristine forest and lake shore. Clearwater is a place to unplug and rejuvenate with the power of nature.
Clearwater Forest has programming available for all ages including summer camp, retreats, family events, senior programs and team building opportunities. We host family reunions, small and large group retreats, corporate picnics/events, business meetings and weddings, all year round with a variety of facilities to offer.

OUR NEW DIRECTOR!
Clearwater Forest is thrilled to announce Doug Snaza will serve as the next Director of Outreach and Programs. He will begin his work with us on December 1, 2019.
Doug is excited to return to Clearwater after spending five years working in youth ministry for churches in the Twin Cities. Before that, Doug spent nearly every summer of his life at Clearwater as a camper, counselor and eventually as Program Director.
We can’t wait to see what Doug has in store for Clearwater Forest as he takes on this new role!
