Camp du Nord offers week-long camping programs for families. We offer age-specific activities in the mornings and family programs in the afternoons and evenings. Whether you're looking for water activities, hiking, or total relaxation, we have something for you!
Summer Family Camp begins in early June and ends the week before Labor Day. All sessions are from Saturday to Saturday. Families arrive late on Saturday or Sunday and depart a relaxing week later. We use a lottery system to make registering as equitable as possible.
There is a perception that du Nord is always “full." But we’re not! Check availability to see if one of our open spots will work for you and take note of the steep discounts offered in weeks 1, 2 and 12.
YMCA Camp du Nord consists of 28 unique cabins, 7 auto tent and rustic tent sites, 6 platform tent sites, and 1 platform cabin.
- All cabins have kitchens, water and electricity, with the exception of the platform cabin.
- Cabin sizes vary and sleep between 2 - 16 people.

Leadership Development Program (LDP)
The Leadership Development Program at du Nord is intended to be a staff-in-training program as well as a leadership development program. It is an opportunity for LDP’s to observe the role of the Program Staff while helping them with a wide range of activities. We hope that today's LDP will be tomorrow's program staff.
LDP is designed for teens 15–18 years of age who are willing to serve the needs of the camp and family campers. Time commitment is two weeks.
