Welcome to YMCA Camp Burgess & Hayward

Come feel the Spirit!

Camp is a place where people come together to create a supportive, healthy community in an environment that fosters a sense of belonging.

Established in 1928, Camp Burgess & Hayward offers enriching programs for children and families year-round. We are located on Cape Cod, just one hour south of Boston, and situated on over 300 acres of forests, meadows and sparkling freshwater ponds.

Camp Burgess for boys and Camp Hayward for girls are traditional brother-sister overnight camps located on opposite shores of Spectacle Pond.

Our Teen programs offer service, leadership and adventure trips on Cape Cod and around North America.

Our Outdoor Education Center and Retreat and Conference Center offer environmental science, adventure and teambuilding programs for school groups and other organizations, as well as facility rentals.

The Emilson Family Camp offers a camp experience for the whole family.
