Michindoh Conference Center

Michindoh Conference Center is a Christian retreat and conference venue in Hillsdale, Michigan, set across a spacious 250-acre lakefront campus. The centre welcomes churches, schools, youth organisations, families and other groups looking for a location with accommodation, activities and programmed support in one setting.

The venue is designed for retreats, conferences, leadership gatherings, educational trips, family weekends and group development programmes. Organisations can arrange their own programmes with support from the Michindoh team, while the facilities provide a practical base for larger groups, with capacity for more than 750 guests. The site combines meeting and conference facilities with overnight accommodation, dining and a broad range of recreational options.

Michindoh also runs its own programme of seasonal and specialist retreats, including youth and adult camps, family retreats, marriage retreats and gatherings for youth leaders. Its Outdoor Education School offers structured multi-day experiences for school groups, combining curriculum-linked lessons with team-building and adventure activities.

The extensive grounds include rolling countryside, wetlands and a private spring-fed lake, creating plenty of space for outdoor learning, recreation and group activities. Depending on the programme, guests may take part in adventure experiences, traditional camp activities, sports and supervised educational sessions.

For event organisers, Michindoh offers a distinctive alternative to a conventional conference hotel. It is particularly suited to faith-based retreats, residential training, school trips, youth conferences, family gatherings and organisations seeking a fully equipped setting with accommodation, meals, activities and experienced on-site support.
