Embrace the power of fun!
Kennolyn Camps has been family owned and operated since 1946 as a private, traditional overnight summer camp for boys and girls. Campers experience a sense of belonging, are given the chance to be independent, discover new skills, and meet wonderful friends and role models. We offer one collection of camps with robust programs designed to engage and challenge your child year after year while helping them develop the skills they will need for the rest of their life.
With two California locations we offer a little something for everyone - grades 5-11 on Huntington Lake and grades 1-11 in the Santa Cruz Mountains.
We're excited to celebrate our 75th summer with multiple generations of camper families and new first-timers!

Kids Need Camp NOW More than Ever!
THIS summer offers a rich opportunity for us and our camp families. After all the stress, uncertainty, and limitations that we’re all going through, the camp experience will be even more of a nourishing, fun, appreciated experience than we’ve all had in years. And we’re excited for the opportunity THIS summer provides to celebrate our 75th Summer, reunite with Alumni, and add new campers to the Kennolyn family. So while we have to endure a little delayed gratification, THIS summer will be worth it – all camps are still scheduled for their original dates and locations - we can’t wait to share THIS summer with you.
