YMCA Camp St. Croix has welcomed guests since 1909, spanning 400 acres of woods, prairies, gardens, and pine-covered bluffs overlooking the St. Croix River National Scenic Riverway — about 20 minutes from the Twin Cities in Hudson, Wisconsin. The camp hosts weddings, retreats, conferences, team building, and private celebrations across three distinct properties: a rustic overnight camp on the South property, a modern banquet building at the Day Camp on the North property, and The Farm, a modern barn surrounded by gardens and pastures.
Gathering spaces range from the South property's Dining Hall, with meal seating for up to 200, to the North property's air-conditioned RCU Discovery Building for 240 guests and outdoor amphitheaters seating up to 280. The Pavilion at The Farm — a 60-by-40-foot pole building with string lighting and cedar wainscoting — seats about 150 at farmhouse tables and is available May through October.
Every event includes a dedicated camp host on site, and outside caterers are welcome alongside the camp's own buffet-style catering. Beer, wine, champagne, and seltzers may be served by a licensed bartender. Overnight cabins let wedding parties and guests stay on the property, and recreation ranges from hiking and campfires to group horseback riding lessons.
