Camp Buckeye is a Christian non-profit retreat center nestled in the heart of Ohio's beautiful countryside near Beach City. Situated on sprawling 92 acres of pristine woodland, Camp Buckeye offers a tranquil escape for individuals, families, and groups seeking respite, adventure, and spiritual nourishment.

Our Commitment to Christian Values

Camp Buckeye's core values are deeply rooted in Christian faith. We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the divinely inspired guide for Christian living, and we strive to integrate these teachings into all aspects of our programs and operations. Our mission is to create an environment where individuals can grow in their faith, build strong relationships, and deepen their understanding of God's love.
