Welcome to Camp Liahona
on beautiful Whaley Lake!!
Camp Liahona - New York is owned by
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
and operated by the Newburgh NY Stake
to serve the needs of Young Women, Church groups, and families

This beautiful camp is located on a wooded tract of lakefront and mountain property
covering over 80 acres along the shores of scenic Whaley Lake and bordering the Appalachian Trail
