Camp ChanYaTa Lodge & Lake

Camp Chan Ya Ta is approximately 165 acres of remote environments and many moods located just outside Worden, Illinois. It’s large enough to provide plenty of space to carry on a variety of programs simultaneously, yet intimate enough to invite discovery of its mysteries by both seasoned and inexperienced campers. The campers at Camp Chan Ya Ta can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities including canoeing, paddle boating, fishing, volleyball, archery, hiking, wildlife viewing, stargazing and campfires.

 

Accommodations range from a lodge with a commercial kitchen and over-sized fireplace to primitive tent pitching sites and from a winterized bunkhouse to cabins and platform tents. Facilities include hot showers, flush toilets, pit latrines, and cold water washstands. The lodge, cabin, and platform tent units are all either fully or semi – accessible for campers with special needs.
