The death of George Freyer in 1912 changed the thriving business of the Doubling Gap White Sulphur Springs Hotel. His wife Charlotte Kathleen became owner and continued operations of the hotel, however the next 20 years became a struggle as land had to be sold to keep up with finances and frequent ownership changes.
September of 1935 was the final month of Doubling Gap White Sulphur Springs Hotel's existence.
--Much of the building's additions and annexes were demolished under the ownership of the final hotel owner Holbert Myers.
In 1946 Holbert Myers was hospitalized in Harrisburg where he met J. Paul Breneman, his hospital roommate and an ordained minister of the East Pennsylvania Eldership and professor at Findlay College. Rev. Breneman had a visitor the one day that summer, Rev. Roy Schreiner who was discussing with him the youth camping program of the church where both men were actively involved. Camp Yolijwa's program had no campsite to use for the next 1947 summer months. Mr. Myers overheard this conversation and mentioned to them that he owned a 100 year old vacant property kept in repair through the years. He offered them the property and after much discussion between Rev. Schreiner (the Camp Dean) and Rev. S.E. Vance (Camp Board Secretary), the property was investigated and they knew that it was just what the Churches of God needed for a summer camp and retreat center.
November 8, 1946 the former Doubling Gap Hotel was purchased by the East Pennsylvania Eldership for the sum of $30,000.
August of 1947, Doubling Gap became home to Camp YoliJwa and has served the Churches of God every summer since then as a Christian summer camp and retreat center.
