Services
Since 1906, Camp Billings has provided a unique camping experience for boys and girls that is safe, healthy, nurturing, and fun. On the shores of beautiful Lake Fairlee in Central Vermont, our campers, some of whom are second, third and fourth generation to Billings find an oasis from their hectic lives during the school year.
Founded in 1906 by Archibald "Dad" Hurd with a land grant from the Billings family of Woodstock, VT, Camp Billings began as a small retreat for children from Vermont. Dad Hurd continued to direct camp for the next 50 years (!) as the facilities and population of camp expanded. Since then the camp family has grown to include people from all over America, Canada, and around the globe.
We will not be renting to large groups like weddings, family reunions, or company retreats. The cabin comfortably sleeps 4 with the ability to sleep two more in the living room (king and full double). The cabin has beds for 6 people with the ability to sleep a couple more in the open spaces (king, queen sleeper, and bunk beds).
For over a century, the Camp Billings Alumni Association has planned reunions and opportunities to keep alumni connected to our dear old camp. If you have ever attended Billings as a camper or as a staff, you are a Billings alum! Come visit next summer. Contact the office to make arrangements. Camp Billings hosts a grand reunion weekend every five years in early June before we open for the season.
