Camp Jonah is a year-round, non-profit Christian Camp and Retreat Center located at the foot of majestic Mt. Adams, just 1.5 hours east of Portland, Oregon.

Who We Are

Camp Jonah began through the love of a Grandmother, Bernice Duke, for her 24 grandchildren. After many years of doing “Grandma Camp” on her 20 acres of woodland, she, along with her son Jeff and daughter-in-law Beki, and their five children, sold their farms to purchase the old Trout Lake School building and start this camp in 1996.

Our staff welcomes you to experience hands-on, tailor-made, year-round, top-notch programs, upgraded facilities, and down-home hospitality. Our facilities and services are available to any organization that will not hold anything in conflict with our Statements of Faith. We host groups of 40-120 guests. Through unexpected gifts, purposeful steps of faith, and God’s grace, many are finding a real community where they come as a guest and leave as a friend.

Camp Jonah is known for our hospitality, home-cooked meals, helpful and friendly staff, amazing location,
numerous on-and off-campus activities, homey atmosphere and high return rate.
