H.H. Peters Youth Camp - Facilities

 

There is a gated entrance to the driveway that leads to the main hall, where you can park and access the pavilion areas and hiking trails that traverse most of the property.   Several of the wooded walking trails also provide access to a secluded picnic area and the Milwaukee River.  Canoe access to the river is possible, but limited to personal carrying.  Firewood and grills are available for cooking, however, fires are allowed only in the grills provided.  Camp facilities are available throughout the year.   The main building fits 40 to 50 sleeping bags or holds 100 persons for sledding / meeting sessions.  The main building also contains toilet facilities and showers - 2 each for boys and girls.

 

 

The east side of the camp has access to the Milwaukee River where you can enjoy the view or fish.  Along the west side of the camp, there is a pond that is also open to fishing. This pond does not allow boating due to its proximity to the golf course, and entry to the course grounds are strictly PROHIBITED.  Due to the minimal development and mature forest canopy, bird watching can be very rewarding, one may even catch a glimpse of an osprey or bald eagle that travels the river corridor. 

The reservation fee for qualifying youth groups (i.e. Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, 4H, etc.) is currently $50 per day, while all other groups is $200 per day.   Camp reservations can be made, however, there is no booking available on our website.
