More about Family Camp
For more than 40 years Mishawaka Family Camp has been a summer staple, providing families an opportunity to experience the joys of summer camp– together!
Whether you want to fish, sail, play tennis, or just take a nap away from phones and email, Family Camp is for you. Activities are designed for all members of the family, and the programming offers a nice mix of activities, social time, and family time.
If you miss your camp days, or just want to discover what Mishawaka campers experience in the summer, then Family Camp is calling. In addition to regular camp activities, special family camp events include Island Day, The Critter Race, Mississippi River Canoe Trip, and Happy-Hour!
Families are housed in camper cabins complete with plumbing and electricity. A rustic but comfortable experience for all! Three meals are served daily, and the week includes several barbeques. Days typically end with a sunset sauna and campfire, complete with s’mores and song!

- Families who are looking for a unique family vacation. Many families have current campers at Mishawaka, while others are former campers who want to introduce Camp Mishawaka to their young children.

- Bring comfortable clothes, a swim suit and towel! Camp Mishawaka supplies bedding and everything else, including sports equipment and life jackets.

- Family camp is designed to be a week-long experience, but with an earlier, mid-week start this year, we have more room to be flexible. We do insist on a 3 day minimum.
