Camp Vista
C.D. Smith was awarded construction management services for a new chapel at Camp Vista, a recreational and educational Christian campground in Campbellsport, Wisconsin. The new facility was constructed in the footprint of the original chapel, which was destroyed in a fire in October of 2018.
The new chapel features open, exposed wood beams in the sanctuary with stone wall accents and ample natural lighting, creating a bright and natural space for the congregation to worship. A choir loft above the pews allows for an ideal acoustic environment. Additionally, a full kitchen and fellowship hall provide space for large group gatherings.
Features include:
- Exposed Wood Beams
- Stone Chapel Wall
- 160-Person Pew Seating
- Exterior Patio
- 2,281 SF Fellowship Hall
