Family Camp

A Mountain Adventure for the Whole Family

YMCA Blue Ridge invites families to enjoy a week of adventure, connection, and relaxation up on the Mountain! We believe that families are the foundation of healthy, values-driven young people. 

During your visit you will have the opportunity to participate in classic camp activities, enjoy meals together, and explore our campus. Families can explore at their own pace or join the scheduled activities. 

Don’t worry! There will be plenty of time to rock on your favorite porch too! 

What is Family Camp?

  • An easy, affordable way for families to get outside and explore together
  • A simple and relaxed family stay – spend time on the mountain, take part in outdoor recreation, and engage in as much guided programming as you’d like. And feel free to venture into Black Mountain or Asheville to experience the popular area attractions, or just grab dinner. At night, join us for a campfire with s’mores, and other family-friendly evening activities.

Blue Ridge Center rooms included in registration – hotel-style room with 2 queen beds, meals, activity offerings each day and evening, and use of the general recreation on grounds. 

Family Lodges and Cabins are available for additional fee upon request. Reach out to Danielle for availability at [email protected]
