Evans Lake is a remote, yet accessible, unspoiled, pristine, mountain co-ed summer camp for youth ages 8-16. Our fun and educational Summer & Winter Camp programs balance opportunities for learning with ample time for play, adventure and fun!

A core belief of Evans Lake, is that you leave our camp with a deeper knowledge and admiration of the forest and the environment that surrounds us. One of the best ways to learn is by having fun and getting your hands dirty.
