Welcome to Trout Lodge and Camp Lakewood!
Trout Lodge and Camp Lakewood are located in Missouri’s Eastern Ozarks and are situated on a 360-acre lake surrounded by 5,200 acres of forest-covered hills. Trout Lodge and Camp Lakewood, a year-round, not-for-profit, family getaway, conference center, outdoor education center and summer residential camp, is located 90 minutes south of St. Louis. Families and groups have enjoyed nature, recreation and relaxation for more than 50 years at Trout Lodge. Trout Lodge offers an outstanding family vacation experience. Accommodations, three full meals and most activities are included in our per person rates. Camp Lakewood is a co-ed summer residential camp for ages 6-17 and an outdoor education center during non-summer months. Programs are based on the YMCA's four core values: Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility. Trout Lodge and Camp Lakewood are collectively known as YMCA of the Ozarks, a branch of the YMCA of Greater St. Louis. YMCA of the Ozarks offers financial assistance – no one is turned away due to the inability to pay.
