Home Schoolers' Week

June 12-16, 2023

Please check with Alice for updated information for the 2022 Home Schoolers Week.

Calumet’s Home Schoolers Week is the perfect opportunity for families of home schooled students to get away, relax, and enjoy a vacation in one of the most breathtaking settings in New England!


Due to COVID-19 guidelines, our usual programming will be limited but home schooling guests are welcome to come overnight and still enjoy our Family Camp Beach. Limited "To Go" meals will be available instead of our regular dining options. Alice, our registrar, will gladly help you make your plans.

Nestled along the shores of beautiful Lake Ossipee, Calumet boasts over a quarter mile of sandy beach that is perfect for swimming, playing, or just simply lounging around.  We also have plenty of canoes and kayaks should you want to explore the lake, or, for those of you who'd prefer a more leisurely tour, we have a comfortable pontoon boat that makes multiple trips daily.  Our athletic amenities include fields for soccer, softball, and archery, as well as courts for tennis, basketball, and volleyball. We also have an arts and crafts facility, a low ropes course, and miles of nature trails that are perfect for hiking!

Calumet has a wide variety of overnight accommodations that are sure to fit any budget and personal preference.  You can choose from rooms in our comfortable and modern Conference Center, or enjoy a more summer-campy experience by staying in one of our simple cabins.  For those of you who prefer "roughing it," we offer camping sites in our campground that are furnished with electricity and water hookups.  Meals are available as part of a package plan, or a-la-carte if you are staying in the campground and prefer to cook your own.

So whether you decide to take part in the daily planned programming that Calumet offers, or utilize the camp facilities to create your own unique experience, a vacation at Calumet is sure to be the perfect break for your home school family this summer.
