Camp Sylvan
Gaylord's premier original summer day camp
Where summer memories are made
Since it first opened at Treetops Resort in 1991, nearly two decades ago, school age children (5-12 years) have been building memories at Camp Sylvan. This year Camp Sylvan opens June 9 and operates through August 20.
Each year children make their own new memories. Whether it's...
- swimming twice a week at one of the resort's pools (lifeguard always present)
- learning the basics of golf with instruction from one of Treetops golf pros
- hiking along a pathway through the woods and hills at Treetops
- hanging out with friends and learning new skills
- the thrill of exploring new places and things while on a Camp Sylvan field trip, there's no better place for summertime fun.
Experienced and knowledgeable staff will assist your child in arts and crafts, games, sports, drama and literature activities.
Happy Campers
"I was a camper at Camp Sylvan as a
child and loved every minute of it. And
now my son is a camper there. He loves
it too. It's a tradition in our family."
- Danielle Gadberry
“Ryan always looks forward to the fun of summer camp: the golfing, swimming, Fort-building, Freeze tag and so much more!”

Camp Philosophy
Camp Sylvan campers are offered opportunities for personal growth, making gains in skill development and increasing positive self image through both fun and educational activities in a beautiful, natural setting. Each camper engages in creative arts, science, reading and writing activities, and explores new places on regular field trips as well as active sports activities such as swimming, golf, hiking and group games. Camper fun is how we measure our success.
