My favourite place on earth! This will be my 6th summer going to camp and I can't wait. The staff are amazing, the food is great and the location is beautiful! I've learnt so much about myself, living with others and different skills like canoeing, archery and painting.

Our 11 year old daughter had a wonderful first-time experience at Oconto. They were total pros at dealing with homesickness over the first few days and, true to form, turned things around to have our kid clamouring to come back next year!

“This is the best place EVER. Send your kids here if you love them because they will love this place. It is so fun and the councillors are so goated”Kaitlyn E.July 2024
Camp has been my favourite place for the past 11 summers! It’s such a safe space and the atmosphere of family is the best! Plus, some of the best sunsets you’ll ever see

Camp Oconto is a very special camp for girls. My daughter has been a few times and will definitely be returning for more. She cannot tell us anything negative about her experience. I would highly recommend this camp.
Nicole A.July 2024
Wonderful camp with excellent leadership. Very safe while still letting the campers have fun. Love the no screen policy! Bravo to the camp for listening to all the child experts out there. I was a GV camper and feel Oconto embraces all the same core values. Love this camp!
