Choose the kind of gathering you need
Cozy, heated cabins
Overnight campers stay in heated cabins with bunk beds. Each cabin group is led by a trained counselor, and each cabin has its own bathroom for the cabin group.
Hot meals and snacks
Chef-prepared meals and snacks are included, served in our dining hall at Ferncliff Commons. We accommodate common dietary needs, so let us know about any allergies or restrictions when you register.
Camp favorites with a winter twist
Campers get the camp favorites they love: silent disco, archery, hatchet throwing, gaga ball, field games, arts and crafts, hikes, and visits to the farm. Then we add a winter twist. Think candy cane hunts, a Christmas bake-off, and games you will only find at Winter Camp.
