1960s Aerial View Camp Grace Bentley Jeddo MI Postcard

Discover the lakeside serenity of Camp Grace Bentley with this vintage aerial postcard capturing the peaceful grounds along the shores of Lake Huron, just north of Port Huron. Nestled at 8250 Lakeshore Road in Jeddo, Michigan, the camp’s collection of buildings stretches gracefully along the waterfront, offering a sweeping view of its sandy shoreline and wooded surroundings. The image highlights the thoughtfully arranged campus, a welcoming retreat designed to provide fresh air, friendship, and summer joy.

Owned and operated by the Michigan League for Crippled Children, Inc., Camp Grace Bentley was established as a non-profit organization dedicated to the summer care of orthopedic and cardiac children. With seventeen buildings forming its lakeside community, the camp created a nurturing environment where children could experience recreation, independence, and companionship in a supportive setting. This aerial perspective beautifully preserves that spirit of care and connection against the sparkling backdrop of Lake Huron.
