Directions
Camp Oty’Okwa is located at 24799 Purcell Road off St. Rt. 374 just north of St. Rt. 664. It is approximately 2 miles north of South Bloomingville, 2 miles west of Old Man’s Cave and south of Conkle’s Hollow. We strongly urge you not to follow the directions given on internet map systems such as “Map Quest”.
From the East:
Take I-70 west to St. Rt. 37 and turn left (south) about 15 miles to Lancaster. At the third traffic light in Lancaster, turn right onto Fair Ave. Again, go to the third traffic light and turn left (south) onto Memorial Dr., also known as St. Rt. 33. Proceed to Logan and get off at St. Rt. 664 (the first Logan exit) and turn right (south). Take St. Rt. 664 past Old Man’s Cave (approximately 12 miles) and Grandma Faye’s. Turn right (north) onto St. Rt. 374 and then left onto Purcell Rd. (100 yards).
Purcell Rd. and the entrance to Camp Oty’Okwa are only 100 yards to the left once you have turned onto St. Rt. 374. If you proceed down the hill, you have gone too far and missed the entrance.
Stay on Purcell Rd. for about ¼ mile to the camp. Once you have reached the camp…
- Coultrap Lodge is the second drive on the left.
- Cardinal Lodge is the first building on the right.
- The Main Campus area is the third drive on the left between the pool and the Activity Center (the large barn with green roof).
- The Visitor Center is the second building on the right.
- Venard Cabin is the first drive on the right past the Visitor Center.
