Falcon Camp

Looking for the best overnight summer camp experience in Ohio? Nestled in the woods on beautiful Leesville Lake lies an award-winning summer camp that has served families since 1959. Located two hours south of Cleveland, Falcon Camp is widely recognized as Ohio’s premier summer camp. Falcon has been honored by the American Camp Association Ohio Section with their Program Excellence Award. Cincinnati Family Magazine has also selected Falcon for a “Best Of” Parenting award each of the last several years.

Falcon Camp offers an eye-catching lakefront setting, a talented staff and a wide range of activities. Boys and girls ages 6-16 choose daily from a variety of activities such as sailing, horseback riding, tennis, theater, sports, riflery, crafts, nature study and much more. Daily activities are gender separate and divided by appropriate age/grade, with planned all-camper events. The non-competitive environment is inviting to campers who may be hesitant to try something new, while the awards system challenges even the most experienced campers.

Falcon has a strong reputation for making sure a camper’s first camping experience is positive. The Traditional Camp offers programs in 2, 4, 6, and 8 week sessions. A 1:4 staff/camper ratio insures attention and instruction in each activity. Instruction is given from beginner to advanced in each area and campers are encouraged to try everything before choosing favorites. The Health Center is available 24/7 and the Kitchen serves excellent food with good variety and attention to individual needs. Falcon also offers an exciting one week intro ‘Young Adventure’ program for campers ages 6-10, which takes place within the Traditional program.

Falcon’s directors are experienced and caring. Our leadership development programs for older campers and staff are respected across the camping world. Our efforts to create an atmosphere of safety and healthy learning helps campers reach outside their comfort zones to feel good about trying new activities and making new friends. At Falcon, good things happen by design. Most important of all: Falcon is great fun! “Fun for Now, Skills for Life” is more than a motto but is truly what happens at camp. Falcon is accredited by the American Camp Association and we are celebrating our 68th year. Campers join Falcon from across the United States and around the world.
