Camp history
A century by the lake
Wapanacki has a long history as a camp for families and children, and a strong connection with the local community.
1900s
A family retreat
Early in the 20th century the property was a family retreat focused on fishing and the outdoors. Prominent northeasterners spent summers at the camp, among them Calvin Coolidge.
The Trout Lodge in its earlier years
1938
A first of its kind
The camp was acquired by the New York Institute for Special Education and became a camp for blind and visually impaired children, the first such camp in the United States. It operated for over 50 years.
Hitting the beach at Lake Wapanacki
1980s
The Girl Scouts
The Girl Scouts of America took over the camp in the 1980s and ran it until 2009, when the property was put up for sale.
Horse stables back in the camp days

New again
Two college friends, from Boston and New York, bought the camp with a plan to make it new again: comfortable, inviting and fit for old and young. Remote enough to get away, modern enough to stay connected.
Bringing the cabins back to life
2016
Open for guests
The camp reopened, inviting guests from across the country to enjoy the woods, the trails, the lake, the fresh air and one of the best-kept secrets in Vermont.
