Located just one hour northwest of Columbus, Camp Willson, otherwise dubbed as the ‘400 Acre Memory Maker’ is centered around a natural spring fed lake (Lake Mac-O-Chee) formed during the glacial period in Ohio 14,000 years ago. In 1918, the YMCA of Central Ohio, then the Metropolitan YMCA of Columbus, decided to use the property as a boys camp named Camp Bailey. It wasn’t until 1921 that the camp was renamed Camp Willson after Columbus carriage maker Alfred L. Willson, whose gift of $20,000 made the purchase of the first 135 acres of the property possible.

Since then, Camp Willson expanded multiple times and built multiple cabins that still stand today. Although many things have change over the last 100+ years, one notion has remained the same: Camp Willson’s dedication to providing an unparalleled overnight camp experience that will stay with campers for a lifetime.
