Coming to Florida for the first time is a thrill for most people – looking for the first palm tree while heading south, the beach, going to see alligators, and deep sea fishing. And getting away from the cold and winter storms appeals to most of us too! Florida is a place of sunshine and usually warm in the winter months. Coming to Camp Freedom allows you to enjoy a spiritual respite and renewal with other believers. There are many ways to get here. Below are directions to the camp if you come by airplane, train, by the Lancaster bus as well as directions for driving. Just click the links above.
