Nestled amongst pine forests on a beautiful lake in mid-coast Maine, Medomak is a vacation that suits every family member.

What is Family camp?

Family Camp is a special place where adults and children alike can learn new skills, share new experiences, make friends, and develop an appreciation for the outdoors. The Medomak experience is a hybrid between a traditional New England summer camp and an all-inclusive family vacation.

Medomak is small, but we like it that way. Each week we are proud of the camp community that is built and the lasting friendships that develop. We hope you will consider joining us and see why so many families return to Medomak Family Camp year after year.

You time. family time. community time.

ESTABLISHED IN 1904. REIMAGINED IN 1994.

In a world that is becoming more and more homogenized, it can be difficult to find a place with beauty, character, and antiquity; a place that welcomes new experience, yet has its own rich story to tell.

Originally started in 1904 as a farming camp for city boys, Medomak has been a place for adventure and exploration for over four generations.

Today, Medomak’s campus is home to three distinct but inter-connected entities: Medomak’s Family Camp which includes fields of stars rising above the lake with its own private lakeside sandy cove, a rental site on a knoll facing sunsets over the lake, and a one hundred acre expanse of warm blueberry fields, pristine lake shoreline and cool pine forest which enfolds the Medomak Retreat Center.

Families Come in all shapes and sizes!

At Medomak, we like to think of ourselves as “an all inclusive, all-inclusive”. We are proud to welcome campers and staff from all walks of life. Camp is a discrimination-free zone and we expect all campers and staff to respect everyone in our community.

sPECIALTY WEEKS

A few times a summer, Medomak hosts specialty weeks that are meant to enhance the normal family camp activities we offer. During these weeks, the regular family camp program will run as usual but enhanced with a special program…just a little something to entice you to attend and make your week with us even more fun.

"There is just something so magical about the simplicity, the structure, the history, and the nature there that make it hard to describe. From the activities to the meals... it was such an amazing trip to take as a family. Slow down together. Unplug together. Learn something new together."
Ryan, 2025
"This is our first family camp experience. We had a wonderful time. The kids got hooked on fishing, archery and paddle boarding. As for the adults we enjoyed the magic that nature brought along with no stress and no worries. A blissful family vacation."
