Camp Monroe & Retreat Center Unplug & Connect!

About Us

Mission Statement: Responding to God’s love, our mission is to invite people to a place and time apart where relationships with God, others, and creation are nurtured and where Christ’s call to discipleship is discovered. Monroe Camp and Retreat Center (MCRC), located in Laurel Hill, North Carolina is a Christian camp and retreat center founded in 1954.

Summer Camps

During June and July, Camp Monroe comes alive with summer camps. Campers participate in outdoor adventures, unplug from their electronics, and connect with each other. Day and overnight campers, ages 6 to 16, discover their strengths, forge friendships, complete challenges, and create lifelong memories. Our priority is for camp staff to get to know each camper individually, listen to their heart, encourage them, and provide them with positive role models.

Weddings

We are a small non profit summer camp venue. Our 300 acre escape is the perfect rustic get away for a small private ceremony or a large family affair. With our 8 bedroom retreat building and cabins, we have enough room for your family and friends to stay on site for a weekend getaway.

Disc Golf

Two 18-hole disc golf courses now open to the public!
Monroe Camp & Retreat Center is proud to offer a Ropes course challenge for groups of 10 or more! We have certified instructors to guide groups through the ropes course with extensive experience.
