Our Mission
Out here, we like to say, “Escape Normal and Experience Camp!” At Timberlake Ranch Camps, we are committed to crafting unique, nature-based experiences that share the hope of the Gospel and inspire imagination. We believe in the power of Christ-centered summer camp programming, where every child can feel safe and accepted as they build relationships and grow in their faith.
Who We Are
Founded in 1977, Timberlake Ranch Camps has been at the forefront of Christ-Centered camping in the midwest for over four decades. We focus on providing family-friendly camp programming combined with excellent facilities designed to immerse guests in nature as they explore and grow in their faith. We believe in the power of disruption, which is why we invite people to Escape Normal and Experience Camp at Timberlake Ranch Camps. By intentionally taking the time to step away from our busy schedules to invest in our relationship with God, connect with those around us, and create space for new experiences, God does incredible things. We have seen the power of camp firsthand through the years as thousands of young people have professed faith in Jesus or found fresh purpose by taking meaningful steps to deepen their faith. As we look to the future, we believe now more than ever that a Christ-centered camp experience has the power to create a lasting impact in the lives of young people, and we are excited about what God is going to do.
