Vermont Retreats & Events

Thinking about a family reunion? Looking to be outside for your next corporate training? Planning to host a yoga retreat? No matter what kind of Vermont event you have in mind, imagine it here …

Vermont At Its Best

Only 20 minutes from the college town of Hanover, NH, arriving at Camp Akeela feels like stepping into another world! Our secluded and peaceful 400 acre Vermont property is nestled on the shores of Miller Pond, surrounded by rolling mountains.

It’s the perfect balance of rustic New England beauty and modern amenities to host your Vermont corporate or wellness retreat. The pristine lake, exciting ropes course and cozy lakeside campfire site are all just steps away from hot private showers in comfortable cabins, wifi enabled work spaces and professionally catered meals!


Accommodations

Akeela has 16 spacious cabins, each with a capacity of 10 – 12 guests. Every cabin has a breezy porch, as well as its own bathroom, with two sinks and individual shower and toilet stalls. Additionally, there are several smaller cabins scattered throughout campus, with larger beds (e.g. full or queen) and private bathrooms. These are great for older family members, group administrators, wedding party members, etc.


Food Service

Our camp dining hall accommodates 200 guests. Half of the tables are outside, on our beautiful covered porch, overlooking the camp lake.

Our chefs can design customized menus that meet the needs of any event. During our camp season, they keep our campers happy with healthy and homemade kid-friendly food like pizza, fajitas and cookouts. That said, they’re equally capable of catering a formal, plated wedding banquet … and pretty much anything in between. We’re also very experienced working with any dietary restrictions, allergies and food preferences. Regardless of your menu selections, we promise to keep you well fed and healthy! (We also consider it our responsibility to make sure that nobody leaves camp without having experienced an authentic fireside s’more!)


Vermont Meeting & Event Spaces

In addition to the dining hall, Akeela features several other large indoor meeting spaces. Our open-air, covered pavilion has a raised stage on one end and seats over 200 people. The Lodge (shown below) is one of our newest buildings and can be used in a variety of ways; we can set up seating for company meetings, tables for a cocktail hour, or leave it as free-flowing open space. It easily holds 200 people, as well. Smaller multi-purpose buildings are also available throughout campus.

Now that you know you’ll be covered in case of rain, you can think about all of the outdoor spaces available to your group at Camp Akeela. Our hillside amphitheater is the perfect place for presentations, talent shows and community meetings. The sports field boasts bleachers that can seat 150, and of course there are beautiful grassy spots waiting for you all around camp.

Audio visual equipment can be provided to meet your group’s needs at any indoor location. There are also designated locations around camp with high speed (fiber) internet access, for individual and group use.


Camp Activities

The best part about hosting a wedding, family reunion, retreat or company meeting at a venue like Camp Akeela is that it’s … well, it’s summer camp! That means your group can eat, sleep, learn and play together. That’s why camp is so uniquely great at creating community. When booking your event at Akeela, ask us about the following activity choices:
Sports: Basketball, frisbee golf, softball, soccer, spikeball, tennis
Aquatics: Boating/fishing/sailing/stand-up-paddleboarding, lake swimming, pool swimming
