Another Great Day!

The day dawned sunny and beautiful, after a cool night, perfect for sleeping. There were definitely some excited kids in koogee row last night, so it took everyone awhile to fall asleep. But that didn’t stop some of the most excited from greeting the dawn with a smile this morning…and I mean the actual dawn…like […]


HOORAY for A!

And we’re off! After two amazing Father Son camp sessions, we were so excited to get A session underway. We had 40 kids stay over from Father Son 2, and they had a great day on the waterfront yesterday afternoon, Domino’s for dinner, and a movie after dinner. Today we woke up to another beautiful […]


What a Day!

We could not have asked for better weather for the last full day of our second Father Son camp. The sun shone, the breeze blew off the lake, and the humidity dropped significantly to make for the perfect Deerhorn day. Today was also our guided fishing day, and although no big muskies were landed, our […]


Here Comes the Sun

We had a morning of beautiful sun, and then the storms came after lunch and it rained for a couple of hours. Dads and sons got crafty in the craft shop, shot riflery, and played games inside while it rained.   We were so grateful when the clouds passed and the sun came back out […]


Rain or Shine

Our second Father Son camp got off to a great start this morning with beautiful sunny skies. It warmed up into the high 80s quickly, and made for another great day on the waterfront. Unfortunately the storm clouds rolled in after lunch and kept everyone out of the water the rest of the day. It […]


A Beautiful Start

It’s hard to believe our first Father Son camp ends tomorrow. We packed so much into the past three days. The weather was beautiful, although definitely hot. It made for perfect waterfront weather! We couldn’t have asked for a better start to the summer of 2021. Old friends, new families, reconnecting after a very very […]


More Fun in the Sun

It was another gorgeous day at Camp Deerhorn, chock full of sunshine and joy. The waterfront was busy again today, as the temperature climbed to 85 degrees. But sailing, skiing, swimming, and kayaking weren’t the only popular activities. Alvaro said he had so many mountain bikers today that all of our bikes were out at […]


For the First Time in Forever

There were trips down the waterslide…sailboats ripping across the lake…kids learning to shoot archery…horses ridden on trails…laughter, running, KIDS at camp! How do we even begin to put into words what this day means to all of us? Not just us as directors and staff, but as parents and kids and humans who have lived […]


Look For Ponies

Today we would like to share another letter from a grateful Deerhorn parent. Where do I even begin to thank you and your family?  The boys had such a wonderful time.  As they have gotten older, but in particular this year, they seem to really appreciate just how special their time at Deerhorn is.  They […]


Here’s to 90 More

Our 90th summer was an incredible one. Our staff was incredible, the four Leaders did an amazing job, and we were surrounded all summer with the best kids you could ever hope to meet. We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to be a part of the lives of so many wonderful families. Whether you worked at […]
