How it works
You share. You make forts. You make friends. Our Camp Friendship programs are strengthened by a village life atmosphere that brings campers together. After a fun filled day of activities, our cabins offer the perfect setting for campers to connect and feel what it means to be part of the Camp Friendship family.
We believe that the cabin is the heart of camp
Traditional campers ages 7 through 12 live in Junior Boys and Junior Girls Villages. These cabins have bunk beds, electricity, en suite bathrooms, and plenty of cabin pride!
Traditional campers ages 12 through 16 live in our co-ed Senior Villages (Senior Village 1 & Senior Village 2), with separate cabins for boys and girls equipped with bunk beds, electricity, and a centrally located bath house.
Traditional campers choose their own activities and receive an individualized schedule focused on their interests.
Equestrian campers ages 9 through 16 live in our Equestrian Village directly across from the barn. The Equestrian Village has bunk beds, electricity, and en suite bathrooms. Equestrian campers participate in horse related activities all day long.

Junior Village
Ages 7-12
Offering the perfect balance between independence and supervision, Junior Village is a safe and supportive environment where campers are encouraged to explore, discover and grow. Our counselors are there to make moments into memories.

Senior Village
Ages 12-16
Welcome to our Senior Village – a great place for teens to have their own space on camp. Senior campers have just the right amount of freedom to balance comfort and autonomy. Here, genuine friendships, the glow of campfires and lifelong memories replace electronics.

Equestrian Camp
Ages 9-16
The Equestrian Camp is a full-day program for girls who LOVE horses. All levels are welcome, from girls who have never been on a horse to those that have been riding their entire lives. Our campers are matched with a horse or pony for their entire session allowing them to connect and progress together.
