We ❤️ this article in MyNorth about Devin and John's beautiful wedding here at Camp Deer Trails! It is a great example of how you can make your wedding your very own at our beautiful campground! 👰‍♀️🤵🥂

Rustic cabins. Retro thermoses. Felt pennants. With gloomy weather to match. This camp-themed wedding is a vibe.
