About Glisson

Since 1925, generations of children and youth have been invited by North Georgia United Methodist Churches to the forests surrounding Cane Creek Falls just north of Dahlonega.  Over the years, this place - long since known as Camp Glisson - has become holy ground as thousands have experienced God's loving presence through the beauty and the people they encounter here at camp.

Creek hikes, kayaking, campfires, games, worship, swimming, climbing and play all combine to provide opportunities for personal and spiritual growth.  Many North Georgia clergy and those in full-time Christian service have heard God's call to ministry in this place.  Even more have had their personal faith strengthened through the very real presence of God here.

We invite you to explore Camp Glisson online and to discover how we might serve you, your family and your church in outdoor ministry.
