God is at work in you

I saw God at work through the employees of Lake Yale: your good nature, willingness to please, and beautiful grounds and meeting space. We are always treated like we are valued, and that is Godly.

Thank you!

The Florida Woodturning Symposium enjoys working with the Lake Yale staff. This is our 11th annual symposium. All of them have been at Lake Yale. Our attendees all seem to enjoy themselves and many return each year. The location is great and the mornings with the sun rising over the lake is very peaceful. Thank you to the Lake Yale staff for helping to make our Symposium a success each year.

Perfect for our needs

My scrapbooking group loves to come to Lake Yale for our bi-annual retreat. The workspace is perfect for our needs and the staff is very helpful while
we are there. They are very accommodating with our special requests while we are there. The office staff is very helpful and patient during the planning
of my scrapbooking retreat and only a phone call away if I have any questions or concerns. It is a pleasure to walk the grounds to and from our motel
rooms and stroll by the lake when we need to get out and stretch our legs. If you are an early riser, you must see the sunrises above the lake, they are
beautiful. My group looks forward to our stay at Lake Yale every time we attend.

The atmosphere cannot be beat

This is a terrific facility with a fantastic staff. The atmosphere cannot be beat. I've attended conferences and retreats here for many years, and the center has always been able to accommodate our needs. The food is fabulous, and there is always coffee and tea on tap! The Maple Fellowship Center is open 24/7 and has plenty of comfy chairs and couches as well as round tables for work or gaming. I so enjoy the hospitality and peacefulness, I didn't want to go home!

The Perfect Venue

It's just a perfect venue for youth. sporting events, worship sessions. The cost was manageable for youth and many got a chance to be away from distractions so they can be ministered to.

Lake Yale Baptist Conference Center is the perfect place

Lake Yale Baptist Conference Center is the perfect place for our yearly School Transportation workshop. The staff is very helpful and congenial. We could not have our conference, with the budget restraints on state government, if it were not for the group at the camp.  We have been the last eleven years and enjoyed every moment. The staff makes the event an enjoyable one. We use all the facilities except the swimming pool and every person at the assembly makes us want to return each year.

LYBCC is Beautiful!

LYBCC is a beautiful facility with a gorgeous shoreline on Lake Yale. The motel-style rooms are clean and comfortable; the staff is gracious and hospitable; and there is plenty to do when you are not in workshops -- disc/Frisbee golf, a sparkling pool, walking, enjoying nature, etc. The food is tasty and filling, too. This is a great place to get away to, to listen for God's voice in your life! We have enjoyed every visit -- we've been here four times now.

Lake Yale Baptist Conference Center is BEAUTIFUL!

Lake Yale Baptist Conference Center is BEAUTIFUL! The lake is so pretty! The docks, picnic tables, the playground area & everything is very well maintained. The whole place was great! I was there for our church's 2018 Winter Retreat with 250 teenagers & I know that they all had fun, too! I loved the Bible verses painted inside the cabins. The trees on the property were gorgeous. The food was delicious- especially their desserts! There were so many fabulous desserts that I had trouble picking just one. Haha!

Your personal attention makes our job easy

We are looking forward to our visit the end of this month. This will be my ninth stay at Lake Yale and I believe the eighth for our sewing group. Because
of the excellent facilities offered at Lake Yale Baptist Conference Center, our Board has approved your site for our 2013 FSS Sewing Retreat and Expo.
Please let the staff know that all of their hard efforts in setting up for our conference, the wonderful service in the cafeteria and the fact that they
don't have to travel to attend the classes were a few of the points considered when making the selection. Your personal attention to our needs and that of
the administrative and housekeeping staff make our job easy. If it weren't for the affordable accommodations and access to the wonderful classrooms with
ample electrical for all of our sewing machines, many of our members could not afford the experience.

It doesn’t get much better than LYBCC.

It is a perfect location for camps, conferences, and retreats for any ministry. It has been the host of our Amp
Week Student Camp for the past 3 years and the staff and the facility go above and beyond every year. If you are looking for a beautiful Florida location,
great facility, great food, and a wonderful staff then try Lake Yale. God had blessed this campus and blessed our group every time we visit.
