Marin Ranch Camp is Marin County's premier overnight summer camp. Just 1 hour north of the Golden Gate Bridge, our fun and engaging overnight camp program is where kids ages 7 - 17 (Leadership-In-Training for 9th - 12th graders) can hike, swim, boat, explore and play. A place where children can be themselves while participating in traditional, good old-fashioned summer camp activities in an intentional community of caring people. Our camp is the perfect choice for Bay Area children wanting to attend a classic overnight summer camp, either for the first time or as seasoned campers!

We believe children need a place where they can be free from the pressures of everyday life and over-scheduling and engage directly with nature. Marin Ranch Camp has limitless opportunities to do so thanks to our beautiful location in West Marin at the Walker Creek Ranch Outdoor Education Center.

Our program consists of a wide variety of traditional summer camp activities ranging from archery to canoeing to all-camp events like our annual Halloween Boogie Barn Bash. Each activity is intentional and based upon the key pillars of our philosophy: Friendship, Adventure, Community, Tradition & Safety. With our camper-to-staff ratio of 8:1 and intentionally small enrollment numbers for each session, we are able to maintain a high quality experience for each individual camper.

We believe in the power of summer camp for every child and up to 30% financial aid is available. To apply, please complete the financial assistance application

Marin Ranch Camp is part of the Camp Doodles family.
