Camp Sweyolakan’s camp programs are geared for kids ages 5-18. Our youngest campers must be entering 1st grade in the fall. Kids are placed in small groups by age and are given appropriate activities. Camp Sweyolakan has something for everyone. There are six week-long sessions to choose from. First time campers can attend a shorter session of a 2-night overnight camp or choose from one of three 5-day Outbackers Day Camp sessions. High school Juniors and Seniors looking to make life-long friends, gain leadership skills and gather team building experience can try out our Youth Leadership Programs (Counselor In Training). Families who are looking to camp together with all of Camp Sweyolakan’s amenities invited to join us for the You and Me Kid session (all ages).

Camp Sweyolakan is a rustic 300 acre camp on beautiful Lake Coeur d’Alene’s Mica Bay. Camper activities include hiking, boating, swimming, archery, science projects, fishing, forestry, outdoor skills and challenge courses.

Each of camper group is set at the beginning of the week and a counselor stays with that group for the entire week. Groups move around to activities together, make plans together, sleep together and thrive together, oftentimes bonding to create lifelong friendships. Most of meals are served family style, meaning the entire camp comes together at the same time and sits down in mixed company to eat together, following rules
