At Camp
The Lodge
Our spacious lobby and sitting area offer a space to relax over a coffee and a warm blueberry muffin in the morning or a game of cribbage in the afternoon. An inviting camp store offers one-of-a-kind Maine souvenirs and keepsakes, as well as light snacks, beer, wine and soft drinks.
Rain? Snow? We’ve got great indoor options for less-than-sunny weather, including board games and puzzles, DIY crafts, and vintage movie screenings on select evenings—or practice your knot-tying skills.
PRO CAMPER TIP: KNOT TYING
Practice these knots during downtime, and you’ll be the hero of the next campfire challenge! Want to show off your skills? Ask a Camp Counselor about our Knot Tying Badge.
The Library
Peruse our collection of books about New England, Maine, Ducktrap Harbor and the surrounding area. You’re welcome to read in the library or borrow books for use in your room — just leave them behind at checkout, please!
Want to take your book home? Our gift shop also regularly stocks books that you can purchase for your own library!
Lawn Games
All guests are welcome to use the horseshoe pits, cornhole boards and croquet sets. See the camp registration desk for equipment. Please play nice, and take turns with other guests!
Campfires
In the evenings, our six campfires offer space to gather with family and friends while roasting marshmallows and telling ghost stories. Grab a s’mores kit at the Lodge and try out Camp DeForest, The Card Game, a fast paced race to toast the most marshmallows before your friends betray you and sabotage your camp!
PRO CAMPER TIP: S’MORES
The Melt Factor: Hold your s’more near the campfire for a few seconds to soften the chocolate without burning your fingers.
Flavored Marshmallows: Try vanilla, caramel, or even chocolate marshmallows for a fun twist!
Upgrade Your Crackers: Swap graham crackers for cookies like chocolate chip or gingersnaps for a gourmet touch.
The Great Outdoors
When you’re ready to enjoy some time outside, we have kayaks, snowshoes, beach towels and yoga mats for rent and loan. Just stop by the front desk—our camp counselors will be ready to help!
Kayaks: During the summer and early fall, kayaks are available for rent. Rental includes a life jacket and paddle! You’ll need to sign a waiver and promise to wear your life jacket!
Snowshoes: During winter months, snowshoes are available for rent from the front desk! You’ll need to sign a waiver for these too!
Yoga Mats: Need a post-hike stretch? You can check-out a yoga mat from the Lodge and take it back to your room for your entire stay!
