Nestled among the pines in the lakes region of Maine, Camp Tapawingo is a small, all-girls overnight camp where every camper is known, supported, and celebrated. For over 100 years, we’ve provided a safe and joyful space for girls to grow with confidence, courage, and compassion.
Our 200-acre campus is surrounded by forest, fields, and a quiet, motor-free lake — except for one motorboat: ours, used for water skiing and tubing. With no public traffic on the lake, campers enjoy a uniquely safe and peaceful waterfront for paddling, sailing, and swimming. Beneath the biggest night skies, campers explore, play, and camp out under the stars.
We intentionally remain small so that our campers all eat together, live together, and play together. Through multi-age programming, younger and older campers share experiences that build empathy, leadership, and lifelong friendships.
Our robust staff is deeply committed to both the camper and parent experience — attentive, communicative, and dedicated to each child’s growth. Tapawingo has proudly maintained ACA Accreditation for decades, using it as a foundation for excellence, safety, and continuous improvement.
Though small in size, our program is expansive — offering Outdoor Adventures, Waterfront, Landsports, Performing Arts, Studio Arts, and Horseback Riding — all designed to inspire confidence, curiosity, and joy.
At Tapawingo, surrounded by pine trees and timeless traditions, campers find space to explore, people who truly know them, and a place that feels like home.
