Great Lakes Lodge at YMCA Camp Pinewood – A Peaceful Escape in Twin Lake, MI
Welcome to Great Lakes Lodge—a cozy, year-round retreat tucked into the Manistee National Forest, perfect for families, couples, and friends looking to relax, reconnect, and explore beautiful West Michigan.
Located in Twin Lake, Michigan, we’re ideally situated just 3 hours from both Chicago and Detroit, an hour from Grand Rapids, and only 30 minutes from the Cross-Lake Ferry that runs between Milwaukee and Muskegon.
This spacious lodge features:
Five comfortable bedrooms:
Three rooms with bunk beds (twin on top, full on bottom)
Two Rooms with a twin/full bunk bed and a twin/twin bunk bed
Three full bathrooms, each with a toilet, sink, and shower
A large, fully equipped kitchen perfect for group meals
A front porch stretches across the front of the lodge, ideal for sipping coffee, playing games, or enjoying the quiet of the woods
An established fire pit nestled just behind the lodge for evening campfires and s’mores
Guests also have seasonal access to Echo Lake, a peaceful, non-motorized lake perfect for swimming and boating when a Camp Pinewood lifeguard is on duty. We offer canoes, kayaks, and rowboats—a great way to take in the beauty of the lake. If interested in waterfront or other activities, please contact host.
When you're ready to explore, we’re a short drive from some of West Michigan’s top attractions:
Muskegon State Park
Michigan’s Adventure amusement park
Muskegon Luge Adventure Sports Park
Canoe and raft trips on the Muskegon River
Lewis Adventure Farm & Zoo
Silver Lake Sand Dunes, and more!
Come fall, the colors in the forest are absolutely stunning. Whether you stay on site to hike, paddle, and unwind or use us as a home base to explore the vibrant autumn scenery, the Great Lakes Lodge is your perfect fall getaway.
Great Lakes Lodge is part of YMCA Camp Pinewood, which will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2025. Our camp has a long history of bringing people together in nature, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
