what is family Camp?

Many families say that their week at Mayflower Family Camp is a hybrid between a traditional New England summer camp and a fun filled, memory making family vacation. Mayflower Family Camp creates a unique oasis for adults and children alike.

Families can choose to participate in morning Christian education time with outstanding speakers from across the country. We offer many outdoor recreational opportunities such as volleyball, tennis, basketball, disc golf, bocce ball, gaga court, frog pond, lakefront, canoes, kayaks, paddleboards and some great play areas for kids.

Each week we are proud of the camp community that is built and the lasting friendships that develop. Since opening family camp many years ago, generation after generation return each summer to renew, reconnect, and grow. We are so excited for you to come and to experience all kinds of fun events, fantastic kids programs, safe and experienced staff, great worship, and so much more!
