I came for Indigenous People's weekend and had a blast at the AMC Mohican Outdoor Center! They have various camp sites and cabins near a lake. The cabins were fairly new and very clean, ours had a kitchen and fridge along with a stove and microwave, there is a community bathroom outside their rec center with warm showers and bathroom facilities. The staff is very friendly and accommodating as well as the food was so delicious! I'm not much of a camper but I thoroughly enjoyed my time here!

Great stay at the Highland Center for a staff retreat. We were able to work, have people zoom in for training, have meals together, hike and play board games all at one convenient location with extremely friendly and accommodating staff. This was my first time here but certainly won’t be my last.

Cardigan was the most magical spot for our wedding weekend! from the planning to the execution we couldn't have asked for better people to work with. They were so detail oriented, incredibly kind, and patient!! They were so excited for us and were helpful in making our vision a reality. All the food was outstanding! we had several different dietary restrictions and the catered to all of them- the guests kept telling us after each meal how wonderful the food was. We felt so comfortable and happy to share this wonderful space with friends and family! Couldn't recommend it enough!

I became involved with AMC because of my love for the outdoors, and the organization’s myriad types of trip offerings, at all levels, led by experienced guides. Hiking, skiing, bicycling, water sports, even international travel, you name it—AMC has it all!

AMC Medawisla Lodge & Cabins was an amazing place for our small, intimate wedding. All the guests were very comfortable and well fed in the accommodations provided. The venue's spectacular natural beauty was the perfect backdrop for our special day. Aiden and his team were incredibly reliable and accommodating, making themselves available to us and all our guests. They worked tirelessly to ensure everything came together seamlessly, demonstrating true professionalism throughout. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to help make our wedding day so memorable.
