More About Camp
Nestled into 50 acres in Spring, TX, YMCA Camp Pine Tree is only 30 minutes away from anywhere in the Houston area. This great location helps our campers and parents feel very safe. We offer the most traditional activities in a non-competitive environment so that our campers get a well-rounded view of camping in general.
Parents and family members play a big part on opening day as they move the camper into the cabin, meet the counselors, make the bed and then have lunch together. Then before everyone leaves, we introduce all of the staff members and sing some silly camp songs together. It's our way of breaking the ice, getting the campers comfortable and easing any of the family's worries.
Our cabins contain bunkbeds, showers, sinks, toilets and central air and heat.
Our senior counselors must have completed their freshman year of college, pass a drug test, criminal background check, three personal reference checks and an intense interview process.
Our camp is only Sunday afternoon through Friday morning...specifically designed to allow the appropriate time for beginners. On closing day, the family is invited to come watch our award ceremony at 9:30. Every camper receives a reward. We hope to see you there.
New mini-camp sessions invite 5-yr olds to our last sessions. Four total mini-camp sessions are now available for a 3-night stay as opposed to the regular 5-night sessions.
