500 Hood Rd.Kingsport, TN 37660CAMP BAYSMOUNTAINOur legacy began in 1947 when the M.H. Allison family donated 600 acres to form Buffalo Mountain Camp. Although the site has changed locations, our commitment to outstanding hospitality and faith formation remains a hallmark of camp and retreat ministry in our region. Our 2024 summer campers will continue in that legacy as they create new traditions, form new friendships, and experience the Creator in the midst of the Creation. Camp Bays Mountain’s staff is passionate to “Move Them In, Move Them Up, and Move Them Out” as campers become disciples of Christ.
