If you are challenged by a disability and are searching for a get-away where you can experience new activities or just relax around the campfire watching a beautiful sunset, we are the place for you. You’ll be surrounded by staff and volunteers who will see to your every need. You’ll dine on nutritious home cooked meals featuring gluten free products and fresh fruits and vegetables. While we pamper and attend to your every need, your caregiver’s will have an opportunity to relax and re-charge. Afterall, everyone deserves a vacation.
We’re a little different than most camps in that once you become a camper, you stay a camper. Our minimum age requirement is 12 years and we have no upper limits. We believe wholeheartedly in inclusion and the importance of a community connecting people of all abilities and cultures. We see disability as a culture and camp as a way to celebrate it.
We offered two different programs: Base Camp and Adventure Camp with all sessions spanning 5 days/4nights. We aim to be as accommodating as possible and offer guidelines on eligibility below. Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions
