Join in the fun of camp for a whole week but sleep in your own bed! Day camps are offered each week through the summer and parents know their kids are safe and enjoying activities outdoors instead of plugged into electronics.
Get a week away and enjoy all that Manidokan offers: swimming, boating, climbing, ziplines, games and much more! Half-week and One-week residential camps are offered for entering 2nd graders to 12th graders.
The Manidokan has been owned and operated by The United Methodist Church since 1949. Come and enjoy the peace and solitude of God’s creation.
