Enchanted Hills Camp

Enchanted Hills Camp offers activities such as hiking a wooded trail, guided hikes, outdoor exploration, and paddling across the lake. Campers take part in swimming and water play in both the lake and the pool, as well as adapted sports, group games such as Goalball, archery, basketball, and other outdoor games. The program also includes performing skits with friends, music, games, social activities, hands-on creative projects using a wide variety of materials and techniques, crafts, lessons, and the occasional drum circle.

Enchanted Hills Camp was founded in 1950 by Rose Resnick and was the first camp on the West Coast designed specifically for blind children. It is owned and operated by LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired, whose mission is to promote independence, community, and equity created by and with blind and low vision people. The camp welcomes blind and low vision children, teens, adults, seniors, and members of the deaf-blind community, along with their families. It offers distinct sessions including Adult Camps, Adult Makers Camp, Youth and Teen Camps, Family Camp, Providers Weekend, and specialty sessions such as Transition and Leadership Academies, Music Academy, Horse Camp, National Woodworkers Gathering, and Writers Retreats. Spring and Fall Family Camps provide an optional first step for youth interested in participating independently in future summers. When summer sessions end, the team transforms the space into a year-round retreat center for gatherings and events, and these rentals help sustain and expand the programs. The Campership Campaign supports campers attending at no cost to them or their families, and an Amazon Wish List is used to obtain items such as sports equipment, art supplies, tools, adaptive recreation gear, and practical essentials.
