Our small culture (camp family) makes it easy for everyone to feel included and genuinely bonded to one another. Making friends is easy when you are in a culture that celebrates uniqueness and authenticity. Come to connect. We believe a connection to nature is crucial for all children and our program provides the opportunity to fall in love with the great outdoors.
The nature surrounding the ranch beckons exploration and adventure. Come to explore. In today's techno-saturated, high-pressure world we all need a chance to take a step back and really rest. Time for just the quiet, for the sounds of nature and time to process. As we unplug from technology, we find joy.

Mountain Meadow Ranch is a co-ed, sleep away summer camp for kids ages 7 to 16. We have enjoyed 61 summers of family owned and operated summer camp life, our current directors are our third generation! Uniquely located on a spacious 900-acre ranch north of Lake Tahoe, in the northeastern slopes of the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Our secluded valley, now home to Mountain Meadow Ranch California Summer Camp, was once a favorite hunting camp for the Maidu Indians. As time moved on the faces of the hunters changed but the popularity of the area remained. In 1910, a wealthy bear hunter from Reno built a permanent summer retreat here.
For the more spontaneous and adventurous couple hoping to share vows in a less traditional way. Rental is for 24hours. Includes access to chosen ceremony and reception site, two suites for day-of getting ready for the bride and groom, and the dining hall and fridge and freezer for holding of food, desserts, etc.
This is a work in progress, so please check back frequently as more photos will be added. Whether you're a present member of our California summer camp family, an alumni, or just a visitor stoppin' through, we hope you'll enjoy these special snapshots from the Mountain Meadow Ranch time capsule. Attention Alumni: These era photos were recently acquired, and many of the people cannot be identified.
We desire something much deeper as well. Our biggest mission as a camp is to create a place of safety and freedom for our campers to experience a way of living that isn't the norm in our world. Where we are quick to love and include but also encouraged to grow and face our fears. We believe a huge part of this is our camp counselors.
