Camp Walden

Our summer neighborhood encourages campers to explore who they are and what they enjoy in a safe, welcoming community. Set in the woodlands of northern Michigan, Walden offers more than 50 activities and gives children and teens the freedom to create their own schedules. This means that campers daily cross paths with dozens of kids and counselors outside of their cabin group. The result is an intermingling of ages and genders that builds camp camaraderie and opens the door wider to new friendships. All of this, under an overarching ethos of kindness and acceptance, has kept Walden a top midwestern camp for 66 summers.
