REDWOOD ADVENTURE
FRIENDS AND FAMILY CAMP
Disconnect from the busyness. Reconnect with the people who matter most.
Whether you come with your family, a group of friends, or on your own, Friends & Family Camp offers a unique opportunity to step away from everyday life and enjoy four days of adventure, great food, meaningful conversations, and time together.
Our experienced staff plan the activities, prepare every meal, supervise children's programs, and take care of the details so you can simply relax and enjoy camp. Fill your day with adventure or spend it reading in a hammock. At Friends & Family Camp, there's no right way to camp.

Certified lifeguards are on duty during all scheduled swimming activities.
Time Together...and Time to Yourself
One of the things families love most about Friends & Family Camp is the flexibility.
Spend the entire weekend together, or take advantage of our supervised children's activities while you enjoy a hike, participate in the adult low-ropes course, afternoon nap, or simply some quiet time.
Our counselors create fun, age-appropriate activities so children are having just as much fun as the adults.
