About Camp Hermosa

Camp Hermosa is a Christian camp ministry of the Guelph, Middlesex-Lambton-Huron, and Owen Sound Associations of the Baptist Convention of Ontario and Quebec. For more than 75 years, Camp Hermosa has sought to extend the life of the local church in the middle of nature's beauty.

Located a few km north of Goderich, Ontario on the shore of Lake Huron, Camp Hermosa offers a variety of weekend and week-long camp sessions, to enhance the Christian experience of children, youth, families, and adults.

Camp Hermosa is a place where campers of all ages can be enriched and invigorated by beautiful surroundings, daily worship and Bible study, sports, swimming, crafts, and the fellowship of dozens of new friends.

Year after year, campers come to Hermosa to reconnect with old friends, and to make new ones. Children are introduced to the Bible; commitments are strengthened; and decisions are made for Christ on a daily basis.
