Camp Bil-O-Wood

Beginning in 1946, with Mr. & Mrs Horace Ludwig, Camp Bil-O-Wood Has been run by the Ludwig Family for generations Camp Bil-O-Wood is currently under the direction of Paul and Trisha Ludwig. Paul has over twenty years of experience in camp programming and camp operations.

The visit to see the property near Blind River that would eventually become CAMP BIL-O-Wood occurred because Bill Slick (he is the Bil in Bil-O-Wood) had been there numerous times when it was a hunting and fishing camp. During his visit in the early fall of 1945 he learned that the 160 acre property between Bass and Allen Lakes was for sale. He knew Uncle Woody (the Wood in Bil-O-Wood) had been looking for a place to start a new camp. And that was the beginning of Bil-O-Wood.
