Say Your Vows Where the River Runs
From intimate riverfront ceremonies to elegant receptions for 250, our historic property offers a naturally breathtaking setting unlike anything a banquet hall can offer.
Six Distinct Spaces
One Extraordinary Property for Your Most Important Day
Camp Albright is more than a campground — it is a full-service event destination with six distinct spaces that can be combined and customized to create the celebration you’ve always imagined. With over 100 years of history, a Hersey River backdrop, and the warmth of Sheila and Brian Jacobson’s personal hospitality, there is no venue quite like it in Reed City, Michigan.
The Tabernacle
An Elegant Wood-Floor Hall for Up to 250 Guests
The Tabernacle is Camp Albright’s flagship event space — a beautiful building with a warm wood floor and the kind of natural character that modern event venues spend millions trying to replicate. Originally built for large worship gatherings, its bones make it a stunning backdrop for receptions, banquets, dances, and ceremonies of all kinds.
With capacity for up to 250 guests, it is large enough for a substantial celebration yet intimate enough to feel personal. The space adapts easily to your vision — whether that means round tables and candlelight for a reception dinner or chairs in rows for a traditional ceremony.
Perfect for:
Wedding receptions · Banquets · Large group dinners · Dances · Anniversary celebrations · Awards events
- Warm wood floor throughout — elegant and versatile
- Capacity of approximately 250 guests
- Suitable for ceremonies, receptions, and banquets
- Pair with outdoor spaces for ceremony + reception flow
- Accessible facilities on the property
Riverfront Spaces
Where the Hersey River Becomes Your Backdrop
Two of Camp Albright’s most romantic and memorable event spaces sit right along the Hersey River — giving couples and event hosts a naturally stunning setting that requires no decoration to feel extraordinary.
The Riverfront Amphitheater
An outdoor amphitheater area positioned with views overlooking the Hersey River — a striking setting for outdoor ceremonies, evening receptions, musical performances, worship nights, and any event that deserves a dramatic natural stage.
- Overlooks the Hersey River with open-sky views
- Natural stage setting for ceremonies and performances
- Ideal for evening events and sunset ceremonies
- Works beautifully for worship nights and outdoor programs
Outdoor Gatherings
The Riverfront Chapel
A small, intimate chapel positioned near the Hersey River — one of the most naturally beautiful and spiritually meaningful ceremony settings you’ll find in Michigan. The sound of the river, the surrounding trees, and the simple elegance of the structure create a moment that no indoor venue can replicate.
- Intimate setting directly beside the Hersey River
- Ideal for wedding ceremonies, vow renewals, and private worship
- Natural surroundings require minimal decoration
- Easily paired with the Tabernacle for ceremony + reception flow
Intimate Ceremonies
Outdoor Spaces
Open Lawn & Pavilions — The Great Outdoors, Beautifully Hosted
Some of the most beautiful events at Camp Albright happen under the open sky. A large grass lawn area on the property provides a flexible outdoor canvas for tented receptions, garden ceremonies, lawn dining, and large group celebrations that need room to breathe.
Two picnic pavilions — one on the north side of the property and one on the east — offer shaded outdoor gathering space for catered dinners, cocktail hours, dessert stations, or post-ceremony family gatherings.
North Pavilion
Located on the north side of the property. Shaded outdoor dining and gathering space, ideal for catered group meals or cocktail receptions.
East Pavilion
Located on the east side of the grounds. A second covered outdoor space for overflow seating, dessert stations, or separate family gathering areas.
Dining & Catering
Fuel Every Celebration with a Full Kitchen & Dining Hall
Camp Albright’s dining hall and kitchen give event hosts the flexibility to bring in their own catering team, prepare food on-site, or use the space for a self-catered celebration — without the constraints of a venue that requires you to use their preferred vendors.
The dining hall includes an outdoor patio for al fresco dining in warmer weather, and men’s and women’s restrooms are conveniently located near the pool area to serve outdoor event guests.
“The kitchen is available for rental to groups needing to prepare or serve meals on site — giving your caterer or family the space to work comfortably and efficiently.”
- Full kitchen available for group rental
- Dining hall with outdoor patio for indoor/outdoor flow
- Men’s and women’s restrooms nearby
- Bring your own caterer — no required vendor restrictions
