Camp American Legion

Established in 1925, Camp American Legion is a haven for Wisconsin veterans, active duty service members and their families who need a little help to heal. With fully furnished cabins, a restaurant-quality dining facility and many recreational facilities and activities, Camp American Legion is the place for those who could use a hand on the road back to health.

The mission of Camp American Legion is to provide rest and recuperation to qualifying Wisconsin veterans of all ages, military service members, and their families. Camp American Legion serves those who have physical or psychological medical conditions, any and all types of service and non-service related illnesses, injuries or disabilities. Assistance is provided to those with Post Traumatic Stress, Traumatic Blast Injuries and Combat Operational Stress, along with many other related emotional and cultural issues.

Camp American Legion is also a place for family reintegration and support following a Wisconsin service member’s deployment. Families and children are welcome as our goal is to help bring families back together, reconnect and bond.

Camp American Legion also welcomes survivor families of the fallen, those who have lost a family member in service, to assist them with their grief, remembrance and healing.

Those who stay at Camp American Legion during the season, stay free of cost.

American Legion Community Post 375 of Mukwonago sponsors Cabin #3 at Camp American Legion. Every spring, volunteers from American Legion Post 375, American Legion Auxiliary Unit 375, and Sons of the American Legion Squadron 375, travel to Camp to bring donated funds and supplies and prepare the cabin for the upcoming season. The volunteers also assist the Camp Director with preparing the grounds for the season.

Some of our guests at Cabin #3 have written in our Guest Book. Here are some of their journal entries:
