Welcome to Camp Carmel
Camp Carmel is an overnight summer camp tucked away in Western North Carolina that has been offering Christ-centered camps since 1952.
Community how God designed it.
Community is at the heart of everything we do. Camp Carmel is designed to give campers an engaging space to experience the joys of community living without the distractions and stresses of everyday life.
Discover new family
Whether you're a first-time camper or a returning veteran, we invite you to come and be a part of the Camp Carmel family that has been growing together in Christ for over 70 years.
Encounter the Holy Spirit
At our camp, we aim to create an environment where campers can experience God's love and grace. We provide opportunities for spiritual growth and exploration through daily bible study, worship, and prayer.
Get back to your roots
Enjoy hiking through Rhododendron groves to Vespers Rock, casting a line into the Linville River, or hammocking under a mountain canopy. Camp Carmel offers countless ways to experience God through His creation.
What to bring to camp?
The right gear can make all the difference in creating a comfortable and enjoyable camp environment. Our packing list includes all the supplies you'll need to make memories that last a lifetime!
Trustworthy leadership
At our camp, we believe that good leadership starts with leading by example. Our counselors are trained in creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment for campers.
A day in the life of a camper
Each day is a unique opportunity to learn, grow, and create memories. Starting with morning watch and ending around a campfire, campers will engage in a variety of activities from hiking and swimming to arts and crafts and team-building games.
Food and lodging
Food and lodging play a critical role in ensuring that campers have the energy and rest they need to make the most of their camp experience. That's why at our camp, we strive to provide balanced meals and comfortable accommodations.
