About Day Camp Spring Lake

Day Camp Spring Lake is a wonderful place for your child to experience fun, outdoor adventures this summer! Day Camp Spring Lake provides a week packed full of exciting and structured activities at this beautiful park setting with spectacular views of the Mississippi River.

Located at Camp Spring Lake at Dakota County’s Spring Lake Park Reserve, just a short bus ride from several communities, campers age 4 through 16 participate in small, age-appropriate groups as they build self-esteem, learn new skills, and practice the YMCA’s core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. And each year, every child leaves with special beads to mark their accomplishments and treasured experiences.
