Naturally Inspiring
Camp Clark Williamson is nestled on 116 wooded acres in the rolling hills in
northern Madison County only 8 miles north of Interstate 40. The wooded hills
are in contrast to the five acre lake, and the large open grassy field. The Camp
is an exciting place for adventure and exploration physically, mentally, and
spiritually. It is a place of solitude. When passing through the gates the
normal frantic pace of life is immediately transformed into a sense of peace and
tranquility. Yet shopping malls, movie theaters and other recreational
opportunities, and excellent health care are only a few minutes drive away.
Recreation
The Lake adds a beauty to the centerpiece of the camp. It also adds
recreational opportunities. Boating, fishing for largemouth bass, bream, &
catfish, hiking & exploring, as well as relaxation. Other recreation includes a
swimming pool, basketball, sand volleyball, horseshoes, a large open grassy
ballfield for playing ball or games, and several porch swings for general
relaxation.
Savannah Hill Lodge
A new Lodge has been constructed for the purpose of hosting adult & senior
retreats while still providing a place for children & youth. It is also a
magnificent place to host a conferences, reunions or a wedding. Its purpose is
for year round use.
It will accommodate up to 32 people in bunks inside four rooms. It is in a
heated and air conditioned environment with each room having its own shower and
restroom facilities. The great room will seat 128 at round tables.
The log building with its hardwood floors and large stone fireplace give it a
cozy feeling everyone enjoys.

The Resident Camp at Camp Clark Williamson can accommodate 129 people
including all the cabins and the cottage. Eleven cabins sleep 8 in bunk beds and
three sleep 12. The girls and boys areas have their own centralized shower
house. Other facilities include a dining hall, activities building (both which
are air conditioned), large pavilion, canteen, study huts, campfire ring, and an
outdoor vespers area. There also is a two bedroom cottage with bathroom and
kitchenette.
Camp Clark Williamson provides the staff for the operation of the food
service which provide meals to the rental groups. A large smoker grill is
available for the groups use. A lifeguard is provided by the Camp and is
responsible for the swimming pool.
Day Camp
Facilities for the two day camps include an open pavilion that will
accommodate 50 people. The use of recreational facilities of the resident camp
can be available on a scheduled basis. The day camp areas are also a great place
for a groups use for overnight tent or trailer camping. One has electricity and
water while the other is rustic.
During the summers many local day care centers utilize the day camp area and
pool as weekly programming. This is extremely effective for them.
