Overview
Forest Acres is a place where girls are empowered to explore, express, and connect. In a nurturing and fun environment, they take on new challenges, build strong friendships, and gain confidence through every campfire, game, and song. With over 100 summers of tradition and community, it’s more than just a summer away — it’s a place where girls truly thrive.
At Forest Acres, girls find more than fun—they find a space where they’re supported, challenged, and truly seen. In an all-girls environment rooted in tradition and kindness, they’re free to lead, take risks, and grow into themselves—without filters or pressure. Everything we do—from riding to campfire to Cabin Night—is built to help girls connect deeply, discover their voice, and carry that strength long after summer ends.
