Why should the boys have all the fun?

Highlands in August has always naturally lent itself to fun and relaxation. Highlands is the perfect place to get away right before the long days of summer come to an end. Friends + Family Camp is the last week of the camping season, set aside for camper families, friends of Camp, alumni, and friends of friends. It’s also a great place to get that reluctant camper comfortable with the idea of a summer at Highlands.

Accommodations

You may choose a more rugged camping experience in one of our rustic boy’s cabins, without electricity or running water. Or you may prefer a Lodge room or cabin with electricity, screens on the windows, and a shared common bathhouse. Lodge accommodations are a hot commodity. Early reservations are recommended!

Unplugged Family Fun

The day’s schedule includes counselor-led activities in the morning and afternoon, three meals a day, and, most importantly….rest hour! We also offer a “glamping” overnight trip on our neighbor lake, a babysitter for little guys during the day, led hikes, and the occasional evening pontoon boat ride.
