About Camp Spofford
Camp Spofford serves families, couples, kids, churches, and individuals seeking refuge from the daily grind of life and connection into something greater than themselves. We have a deep love and passion for Jesus and seek to help others discover that same passion for themselves. We value relational community, and believe that following Jesus is best done together; so, everything we do is born out of a deep sense of connection. We operate in a gorgeous part of the country (center of New England) that naturally lends itself to rest, so we strive to make our guest experience as refreshing as possible. We do all of this through Family Camp and Youth Camp (both overnight camp and day camp) in the summer season, along with weekend and some full-week retreats during the Fall, Winter, and Spring.
While there are unique features of the Summer Season compared to the Retreat Season, there are some things that you’ll find here at any time during the year: amazing food, refined facilities, friendly (and goofy) staff members, lots of coffee, and a whole lot of fun activities.
