Camp Farwell has been a special place for girls since 1906. Situated in the Green Mountain State of Vermont, on Halls Lake, our magnificient 100-acre site offers a wonderful location for a seemingly endless variety of activities -- from riding to water sports, from music and dance to team endeavors and individual pursuits.

If there were three ingredients that could be said to form each girl's Camp Farwell experience, they would be friendship, community spirit, and a warm family environment. For at the heart of the Camp Farwell experience is an underlying belief in the importance of personal growth, self-confidence, and an appreciation for nature's beauty.

Camp Farwell has thrived as a girls summer camp for almost 100 years . . . and through each summer the camp has continued to draw enthusiastic campers returning for their second or fifth season, new campers who leave with a heightened sense of beauty and friendship, and a dedicated staff who love the work they do and respect the role that Camp Farwell plays in the campers' lives.
