Camp Highlander is a residential summer camp in Mills River, North Carolina, devoted to the growing and nurturing of boys and girls, ages 6-16, in a safe, fun-filled, and electronics-free environment. Since 1957, we have partnered with parents and families to build character and confidence in the lives of children as we provide lifelong memories, authentic friendships, and an undeniable sense of being loved.
For over sixty years, our Camp Highlander family has grown as campers and counselors have traveled from 20 different countries and 32 US states to experience the magic of our mountain home. Each and every one of these individuals, whether they come from just down the road or across the globe, impact and influence our camp legacy with their own unique contributions. And, as they head back home at the end of each summer, they carry the impact and influence of Highlander with them.
We seek to build boys and girls of courage, honesty, integrity and faith, and to help them become all that God intends them to be. Through this love, we seek to build boys and girls of courage, honesty, integrity and faith, and to help them become all that God intends them to be. In all we do, from the social structure of camp to our programming, from opening day to closing day, we seek to uphold, promote, teach and exemplify these four core values.
Courage: Dare to be Brave
Courage is found within you and is realized through the support and love of those around you. Dare to be brave. Try new things. Stand by your friends.
Honesty: Speak Truth in Love
Be yourself. Honesty builds trust. Trust is the foundation of our family. Be kind to others; honesty is shown in our actions, not just our words. Speak truth in love to your neighbor.
Integrity: Respect Yourself, Others and Nature
Be strong. Integrity builds confidence. Lead by example. Win with integrity. Lose with integrity. Live a life of moral conviction, worthy of modeling.
Faith: Seek Truth and Believe
Never stop dreaming. Faith is the ability to receive, find and make meaning in our lives. Faith is being certain of what is not seen and sure of what we hope for.

Katie has been signaling DAILY about camp. I am so grateful for your camp and patience to allow her to settle in. The maturity she returned with is amazing, the love she holds in her heart for camp is inspiring. One of the counselors is my other daughter’s chosen mom.
First time camp mom and camper here and all I can say is that we are beyond impressed!! The communication, the time spent planning events, the pictures, the counselors, the food!! I could go on and on. We look forward to the daily pictures and the blog from Melissa! The staff at Camp Highlander definitely made us feel comfortable leaving a piece of our hearts there for two weeks. I wish I was 13 again so I could go!
First time at Camp Highlander. My 10 year old son had an amazing time. We have been home for a few days and he is still talking about all of the things they did. There are to many activity opportunities to list. We were nervous sending him for two weeks. Immediately upon entering the grounds we felt at ease. The warm and welcoming energy was felt immediately. I can’t thank you enough for making our son’s first two week camp experience amazing. We researched so many options and glad we picked Camp Highlander.
I am an alumni (1980s) and my daughter is scheduled to go back for her second summer in 2022. When I went it was a GREAT camp. Now it is an even GREATER camp. The other reviewers have a done great job talking about the level of communication, personal service, safety and love…believe them all. My daughter came back and forged some amazing relationships with her cabin mates. Before she left we were so worried about her being homesick or maladjusted. At first she wasn’t responding to our messages through the (amazing) Bunk1 application…when she finally responded to us. “Sorry, I was really busy having too much fun that I didn’t write.” We knew she was having fun because we could see the daily pictures. She hasn’t stopped talking about it. They sent her back to us improved physically, spiritually, mentally, socially and with a more responsibility. The staff and management team acts with love in everything they do. I loved this camp then, and I love it even more now. It’s March as I’m writing this…but the whole family has summer camp on the mind. I highly recommend the C session because Color War is awesome.
Just picked up my campers from another amazing two weeks at Camp Highlander! It was our family’s ninth summer at Highlander and my youngest still has a few years ahead of him! From the staff, to the activities, to the amazing friendships they have made over the years – I cannot say enough wonderful things about this camp.
