Get in touch with your inner child at Kimpton Taconic Hotel in Manchester, Vt., this summer. The property introduces Kimpton’s Camp Taconic, an adults-only summer camp experience focused on the four elements: earth, wind, fire and water.
Two sessions are offered, June 23–26 and Aug. 25–28. The three-night camp includes activities such as backcountry hiking, kayaking and tubing on the Battenkill River, kite making, glassblowing and ziplining. Camp t-shirts and s’mores are included, of course. The cost is $1,400 per person, or $2,100 per couple, including accommodations for three nights, all meals and activities.
Camp counselors aid the spirit of summer camp with trumpet bugle wake-up calls, lights out warnings and campfire sing-alongs. The experience is perfect for adventure enthusiasts or travelers seeking something different. Extra nights and add-on activities, including Orvis fly fishing or Land Rover off-road driving, are based on availability.
Minimum participation is eight people per session, with a maximum of 16 people.
Components of Kimpton’s Camp Taconic include:
- Guided hike of Battenkill Valley and the surrounding Manchester area
- Meals at The Copper Grouse led by chef Adam Rafterty
- Morning sweat sessions
- An afternoon escape to secret swimming holes in the area
- Make your own blown glass, bowl or vase during a glassblowing class at Manchester Hot Glass
