Accommodation
What are the rooms like?
The rooms are rather rustic, this is a children's sleep-away camp. The dorm rooms accommodate up to 8 people and have their own bathroom and shower. You will get to know your roommates quite well. There are a limited number of four person rooms, and an even more limited number of 2 person rooms. With the exception of six or seven rooms, all of the cabins are exactly the same.
I'm a light sleeper/very private/need my space/like to conduct seances at dawn, etc... can I have my own room?
No. Friendly Pines has a limited number of rooms- if we give you a single room, that means we will have to turn away as many as 8 people.
I'm not used to rustic living. I'd prefer to stay in town instead or in an RV. Is that okay?
This is a residential retreat and we need to keep coming and going to a minimum. For that reason, retreatants may not stay off campus. The camp also cannot accommodate RVs.
I'd like to stay with my partner. Are the rooms co-ed?
We will be housing couples together. You may indicate on the registration form your choice of roommate. Otherwise, all rooms are same sex.
I don't have enough money for the retreat. Can I sleep in my car and come for free?
You may not camp in your car and come for free as we still have to pay the camp the same amount whether you sleep in your car, or stay in a dorm room.
Can I camp?
A limited number of tent spaces are available. They are reserved for people who are students or who are unemployed. If you would like to apply for a tent space, please request a financial aid form from Andreana at: [email protected]
