What clients say about Camp Oyo in Friendship (OH)

I attended Camp Oyo with a group of cadets from my school's MCJROTC for a week-long leadership camp. It was an amazing experience. The staff were incredibly kind and always ready to lend a hand when needed. Overall, the camp was a great experience, and I’m definitely planning to return next year.

The best camp in Simon Kenton council. The 1930s chestnut cabin are a sight to see.

Had a good overnight in the Block House. The dining hall was nostalgic. The camp is well maintained.

There is great hiking around the camp. The camp also has a really cool creek swimming hole, outdoor chapel and full time caretaker. (photos are from across Shawnee Road along the Harber Fork of Turkey Creek.

Boy Scout Camp OYO provides memories for many around the Tri-State and throughout the region. Scouts play an historical role in this region. Take the family by for a look at historic cabins and a lovely spot on Turkey Creek!

This is an amazing place to take a group for camping. You have the options of using cabins or tent camping. It's very peaceful if you go at the right time. Very close to Shawnee State Park with trails that access the Shawnee State Park trails and the Buckeye Trail.

The older cabins are exactly that. They have been refurbished to have nice floors and electricity, but certain cabins will still get cold during the winter if you do not have a good fire in the fireplace. The camp is good for being 90 years old and has fair accomodations. The surrounding forest is spectacular and has a rich history.

I use this campsite for LARP. It can be a bit dangerous in muddy and icy weather, but otherwise, it's a very nice camp site.

Experiences in BSA Troop 3, Sciotoville Ohio, based at the Sciotovilke Ohio Methodist Church and at Camp Oyo formed my Values and character starting when I was 8, until I was 14. It was uplifting, and I learned many things while earning 2 dozen Merit Badges, my Eagle Scout Honor Badge, the Order of the Arrow Honor Ordeal (including sleeping in the Woods all night with no lights and no fire, then remaining mute for a few days while clearing bush), and learning to swim. I attended the University Of Cincinnati while sending myself through College by working at the now defunct GOODYEAR Atomic Uranium Enrichment Plant In Piketon Ohio. Camp Oyo is part of me, and i have a fond place in my thankful heart for Scouting.

We had an absolute blast at summer camp for our troop. The cabins are nice and facilities are clean. As long as there are no scout activities, the cabins may be rented.

One of the remote camps for Simon Kenton council. The cell phone service is a challenge. It is 2.30 hours from Columbus but it is a nice country drive. The camp is nested next to Shawnee State Forest Park, lots of great hiking and friendly people.
