Welcome to Somerset!
It was 100 years ago when Camp Somerset for Girls welcomed its first campers to East Pond in Smithfield, Maine, and three decades since it sadly closed.
Until then, one generation followed another, returning to what became one of the most prestigious summer camps in the United States. There they made lifelong memories and friendships that only camp can provide.
Now they can again.
Reopened in 2018, Somerset blends its rich history and traditions with a fresh vision and a brand-new campus. Our facilities are beautiful, our activities exciting and varied—but what makes us most proud is the warm, inclusive community we’ve built. It’s a place where every camper feels she belongs, where she can be herself, try new things, grow in confidence and independence, and build friendships that will last a lifetime.
The original Somerset campers, staff, and families gave us a legacy. Together with today’s campers, we’re writing the next great chapters. Our own years as campers and counselors shaped who we are and helped us reach our dreams. We can’t wait to help your daughter discover hers.
Warm regards,
The Somerset Rings
For every camper, each new day is an opportunity.
