Camp Millhouse

Camp Millhouse Camp Millhouse is a residential summer camp for children & adults with special needs. Find more information at campmillhouse.org

We offer six one-week sessions in the summer & off-season programs called the Millhouse Mingles. Camp Millhouse was founded in 1937 and held at various locations until 1940 when the late Mr. & Mrs. Charles Millhouse donated eleven acres of wooded property in Greene Township of St. Joseph County, ten miles southwest of downtown South Bend, Indiana. The camp is currently operated by Camp Millhouse Inc., a not-for-profit organization led by a volunteer Board of Directors. Camp Millhouse is an accredited camp by the American Camp Association. Camp Millhouse has grown to it’s present size of 45 acres through the generosity and nurturing support of the Board of Directors and the surrounding community. Camp Millhouse has survived solely on the support of the community, through fundraisers, other monetary donations and camper fees. We are not a United Way agency and do not receive government monies. We have been able to provide amazing experiences for our campers each and every summer thanks to the generous support of our donors.

We are saddened to learn of the passing yesterday of our friend, Doug. He had been a longtime camper until his parents passed away a few years ago. He was a great helper - especially during sports week basketball when he always wanted to be a coach. He loved all of his camp friends deeply and was always so happy when he walked into the lodge on check-in day. We take comfort knowing he is back together with his mom and dad. Rest easy dear friend - until we meet again.

We are deeply saddened at the loss of our dear friend, Rick Holm. He was always so kind, full of compassion, and his smile could light up a room. We will cherish all the memories of fun times we had with him and his wife Shari. He will be deeply missed. Sending our love to his daughters and their families. Please keep them in your prayers.

It’s hot outside, but it’s always cool to be at Camp Millhouse. Working around the pool today preparing for the closure on Tuesday, August 12. Wondering if there’s anyone replacing their patio furniture this fall and wondering whether we might be able to take a look at it for Camp. You can email the office at campmillhouse@gmail.com or call at 574-233-2202. Please leave your name and phone number and we will return your call. The office is closed for the next three weeks but I will be checking email and voicemail periodically. Thanks!

Parents, campers and staff have asked for it. We are working to make it happen and we need your help. Cabin renovations are next on the list so we can install HVAC. As the heat of the summer increases each year and with our campers suspectibility to overheating, we want to install HVAC to keep our campers (and staff) comfortable and safer. In order to accomplish this, each cabin needs electrical upgrades, wall insulation, installation of duct work, ceilings & ceiling insulation, new lighting and then the HVAC. Come see for yourself - call the office for a tour 574-233-2202.
