We are a residential summer camp serving kids from the Bay Area and Northern California. Camp is located 160 miles north of San Francisco and spread over 2,000 acres in the breathtaking Jackson State forest. It takes approximately three hours to reach camp from the city. We provide transportation between San Francisco and Camp at the start and end of the summer.

We offer numerous programs such as nature, digital photography, mountain biking, archery, arts & crafts, high ropes, climbing wall, overnight camping and boating.
