Overview
Heartland Hockey Camp is the leading hockey camp in North America. Located in beautiful Brainerd Lakes, Minnesota, Heartland Hockey Camp is the only self-contained, privately-owned ice hockey camp in the world. Heartland is inspired by the late Steve Jensen (2022), a former US Olympian and NHL pro who played with the Minnesota North Stars and the Los Angeles Kings. Now, it is owned and operated by Sandra Jensen.
Since 1985, we have dedicated our lives to providing hockey players with one of the most unique training facilities in the world. Our 164-acre camp features a state-of-the-art ice arena, full-sized roller rink, tennis courts, mini-golf, 52 dormitory lodging units, spacious weight-room, hockey pro shop, kitchen and 7,600 feet of private lakeshore property — among other amenities.
