Illinois Turner Camp
Private
Long-running member cottage-camp community of the Illinois Turners on the Fox River near Algonquin, where families stay in private cottages and children take part in a daily summer program of physical education, swimming, organized games, and handicraft led by qualified instructors. Amenities include a large six-lane pool. Membership/cottage-based rather than an open-enrollment drop-off camp.

Powered by GoogleTurner camp is the best place to be. I've been out here since it was little. It's like being in a whole new world . It's definitely relaxing extremely enjoyable. Being in nature seeing the different animals and birds.
Turner Camp is a great place for families. Lots of fun, kid friendly, family activities. If you are in the area and see something going on, stop in and talk to one of the members!
Great environment to be a member of. Active social club. Swimming, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, horse shoes, mens club, women's club right on the Fox River. Restaurant and bar on weekends. Kids summer program.
It's a place where children grow up to have life long friendships of all ages. Best place to learn what having a community really means.
Walking into Turner Camp was an experience I will never forget; the first time I set my feet on its grounds, my youth came back, my mind relaxed, my soul craved what was to abound. I felt UN-stressed, Un-depressed. I could look up at the night sky and actually see the plethora of stars we always can't see in the city. I could take a deep breath and exhale with great people who I had just met a second ago and we would laugh and converse and enjoy good spirits. It's a wonderful place, with great people. Thank you!
