Such a beautiful facility! Staff is wonderful. Overall wonderful campus. We stayed in the cowboy cabin for a quilt retreat in the multi-purpose building. I love coming here!

★★★★★Emma Clanin

We had our wedding at Camp Courageous’s Durgin Pavilion. The ceremony was in the beautiful outdoor space & reception on the top level indoors. The venue was absolutely perfect for us-quiet, beautiful scenery, & affordable. Sonya was so sweet, welcoming & easy to work with! This place is a gem & would recommend it for weddings & other events!
