One of Northeast Georgia’s oldest camps is bringing back the full summer camp experience this year. For the first time since 2020, Camp Toccoa is welcoming overnight campers.

Overnight programs are offered for campers in rising grades 2-12. Camp Toccoa also offers day camp for children in rising grades K-5.

“We’re very excited for the return of overnight campers this summer, as well as another exciting season of Owanyake Day Camp!” says Camp Fire Georgia Board Chair Jennifer Hutchins.

Prospective campers and their families are invited to drop in from noon to 4 p.m. on Sunday, March 26 to see what Camp Toccoa has to offer.

Another open house is scheduled for Sunday, April 23.

“We look forward to welcoming families for our Open House days, and meeting with the community before the summer begins,” Hutchins says.

Located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge in Stephens County, Camp Toccoa has been around since 1927. The 100+ acre camp is operated by Camp Fire Georgia. The camp has a lake, hiking trails, waterfalls, dining hall, and historic lodge.

Camp Toccoa is located at 92 Camp Toccoa Drive in Toccoa, Georgia.
