In July, we’re turning back time. The Indigo House’s adult summer camp in the Blue Ridge Mountains is all about having fun, meeting new people, and sharing memorable experiences with friends old and new. It’s also about escaping from your stressful day job, the daily mundane, and the fact that being an adult is SO HARD sometimes. It’s one part nostalgia and two parts exploration.

We’ve designed a one-of-a-kind weekend camp to help you leave the routine behind and embrace a sense of play. This year, summer camp is intentionally small, with only eight campers total.

We don’t want to overwhelm you with loud dance parties or overstimulate you so much that you need another vacation. Instead, we’ve crafted the perfect summer camp schedule with outdoorsy adults in mind, giving you plenty of time to play and relax. There’s even time for you to sample all the amazing local wine, beer, cider, and distilleries the area has to offer!

The Indigo House’s adult summer camp proves it’s still fun to be a kid again, but even better because you’re surrounded by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains and craft beverages. You can participate at a level that works for you.

Make New Friends at Adult Summer Camp

We’re all wired for community and we believe there’s no better place to build connections than our adult summer camp in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

With our signature style of southern hospitality, we’ll make you feel welcomed from the second you arrive until the moment you leave while giving you time to relax and recharge independently too. Bring a friend, your partner, or just yourself and hang out with cool new people to create a truly unforgettable experience.

In addition to some friendly competition with onsite games, we’ll have an arts and crafts station for you to create at your own pace!

About the Indigo House

Each morning, you’ll wake to the tastiest flavors of the season and a few throwback favs. Our simple and wholesome breakfasts highlight fresh, seasonal produce, Stephanie’s signature granola, local pastries, and eggs. It’s honest food that gives you tons of energy to play like a kid again. 

Our sweet, national park-inspired rooms accommodate two adults and come stocked with the essential items for a luxurious stay, including some beloved, fresh mountain air. Each room is thoughtfully designed with your comfort in mind to include a premium mattress, eco-friendly bedding, heating, and air conditioning, an ensuite bathroom, and a flat-screen, smart television.

Added bonus, unlike the summer camps from your childhood, you can bring your dog to this one!
