Overview
Camp Highlander is a residential summer camp in Mills River, North Carolina, devoted to the growing and nurturing of boys and girls, ages 6-16, in a safe, fun-filled, and electronics-free environment. Since 1957, we have partnered with parents and families to build character and confidence in the lives of children as we provide lifelong memories, authentic friendships, and a camp family to come home to year after year.
We offer an 8 day session for new campers, 2 week camp sessions (our most popular), and one 4 week session. We seek to build boys and girls of courage, honesty, integrity and faith, and to help them become all that God intends them to be.
