We are a non-denominational Christian camp located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in western North Carolina. We offer summer camp, fall family retreats, winter ski retreats, and a number of different retreats during the spring season. You can find most of the information you need here on our web site, but feel free to call us if you have any questions. May the Lord bless you richly today!

In the 1960’s, the Lord began to challenge the hearts of Bob and Pat Anderson to begin a Christian camping ministry in the Southeast. At the time, Bob was serving with Word of Life International as the Florida regional director for their Bible club ministries. He was also involved in the development of many of their curriculum materials.

Bob and Pat envisioned a unique camping and retreat outreach whose goal was to reach young people from all walks of life with as many different program options as would be possible. Bob organized a group of pastors and laymen and in 1967, New Life Fellowship was incorporated in the State of Tennessee. (Papers were filed with the State of North Carolina the following year.) He was named the president of the corporation and an immediate search was begun to find suitable property for a camping and retreat center.
