At YMCA Camp Ohiyesa, there are towers to climb, slides to ride, roaring campfires to gather around, and memories to be made. Our week-long overnight camp program is an American rite of passage that we’ve been passing on since 1918.
When it comes to building confidence and making friends, there is no better place for campers to discover themselves than Camp Ohiyesa on the shores of Fish Lake in Holly, Michigan. Our expertly trained staff safely guides campers as they explore an array of activities, from zip lining to horseback riding to conquering the Alpine Tower. At Ohiyesa, we encourage campers to try new experiences that build character and change lives for good.
