A huge brick fireplace keeps us warm in the winter, and 14 massive windows provide sweeping views of God's wonderful creation all year round. Outside porches down 2 sides give a quiet place to relax in our many teak rocking chairs while admiring views of our lake and wooded areas.

We will rent this facility for all types of special events such as retreats, weddings, receptions, anniversary parties, banquets, picnics, mid-week business meetings and much more. For general information and scheduling call (225) 261-2089.

Chapel

ChapelCome, now is the time to worship. Set in the midst of God's Creation, near the river, our beautiful chapel has a seating capacity of 200. This is the place of worship for our summer campers and can also be used for group worship services or rented as a wedding chapel. No time at Camp Istrouma would be complete without setting aside some time to hear from God and to bring Him the sacrifice of worship. All are welcome, but no food or drinks are allowed in the Chapel.


Cabins

Here groups will bond, lasting friendships will be formed and lifelong memories will be born. Each air conditioned cabin sleeps 72 campers divided into four bedrooms with 9 bunk beds in each. Each room also has a bathroom, and there is a common area which can be used as a meeting room for everyone in the cabin. Common rooms have a large sitting area and a kitchen with a regfrigerator. Boys' cabins and girls' cabins are on opposite sides of the camp.
