Went to Boy Scout there. Great adventures and a beautiful place.

★★★★★Joe Bergeron

My son loved camping here. He had an excellent time. Beautiful views. He really enjoyed making new friends. Wouldn't stop talking about his experiences when he was on his way home. Definitely a great camp and very nice staff! Highly recommend anyone that has a first time camper to bring their child here!

★★★★★Casey Eckelkamp

One of the best experiences I’ve had as a camper in my whole life, I was inspired to get a job there when I was old enough! My friends and I had the best swimming, dining, and overnight camp experience. 5 stars!

For years, Lantern Light Camps has been a place of adventure, learning, and personal growth. As a long-time supporter and advocate, I am incredibly proud of the camp’s rich history and the transformative experiences it provides to campers of all ages. Lantern Light Camps was founded with a simple yet profound mission: to create a space where individuals can connect with nature, challenge themselves, and build lasting friendships. Over the years, the camp has evolved, but its core values remain unchanged—fostering resilience, leadership, and a deep appreciation for the outdoors. From outdoor excursions and team-building activities to skill development workshops and campfire stories, every moment at Lantern Light Camps is designed to inspire. The camp provides an environment where campers step out of their comfort zones, discover new strengths, and develop a sense of confidence that stays with them long after their time at camp ends. What sets Lantern Light Camps apart is its commitment to community. Generations of campers have passed through its programs, many returning as mentors, counselors, or lifelong supporters. The camp is more than just a place—it’s a family, a tradition, and a beacon of adventure for those seeking meaningful connections and personal growth. As we look to the future, we remain dedicated to expanding our programs, preserving our traditions, and continuing to provide unforgettable experiences. Whether you’re a past camper, a current participant, or someone considering joining, know that Lantern Light Camps will always be a place where adventure meets purpose. I invite you to be part of this incredible journey. Share your memories, support our mission, and help us ensure that Lantern Light Camps continues to inspire for generations to come.

I attended Lantern Light Camps as a camper, and it was hands down one of the best experiences of my childhood! Located in the beautiful New Hampshire outdoors, this NH summer camp offers so much more than just traditional camp activities. Whether it’s hiking, archery, or arts & crafts, there’s always something exciting to do. The camp’s commitment to fostering personal growth and confidence through team challenges was truly impactful. Lantern Light also offers both overnight camp in New Hampshire and day camp in NH options, so there’s something for everyone. If you’re looking for the best summer camp in New Hampshire, I highly recommend Lantern Light Camps!
