Having cancelled their award-winning summer camp due to the Coronavirus pandemic, Camp Friendship is now offering families the opportunity to enjoy their beautiful grounds in a different, socially distant way. Nestled on over 500 acres skirting the edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Camp Friendship is a world unto itself – a place where time seems to pass more slowly, causing you to wonder what decade you’re in. Guests aren’t just renting a cabin at Camp Friendship. They’re immersing themselves in an outdoor experience – a private place to get away.
Enjoy Outdoor Camping Activities
Have you ever wanted to canoe on a peaceful lake? Check. Try your hand at roasting s’mores? Check. Kayaking, fishing, biking, tennis? Check, check, and double check. Interested in taking a trail ride? There’s an entire Equestrian Center with over 70 equines waiting for you to book your trail ride or safari-style hayride! Want to cool off? Hop in the Rivanna River right off their River Valley Trail and enjoy a tubing trip that rivals any lazy river. Feeling woodsy? Set off through the surrounding forest for a hike where you won’t hear anything but the crunch of the leaves underneath your feet –a perfect antidote to an overly-scheduled and hectic lifestyle.

Just Think Of It As Camping Indoors!
Camp Friendship is a no-frills summer camp complete with charming old-school cabins. They are a true summer camp for kids, not a proper resort, so just think of it as camping indoors! Although the cabins may be rough-around-the-edges, it truly is a place for guests to let go, sit back and relax.
