Pilgrim Pines Camp and Retreat Center - Swanzey, New Hampshire

Pilgrim Pines is a wonderful place to go for a retreat. We had a Men’s Retreat that was absolutely memorable and the staff as well as the location were amazing. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed this place. The rooms are rugged and so be prepared for that, but you don’t go to mountains in New Hampshire for caviar and truffles!

Family Camp at Pilgrim Pines is the best! I go every year and meet my family there. We have made so many friends over the years that feel like family. Experiences with family, friends, food and fellowship are memorable and a reason to return every year. Oh, and the beach is great too!

The Staff was very friendly and helpful, but the actual People were absolutely rude and not "Christian-like" it was truly disgraceful. For a "Holy camp retreat" The people were not welcoming or friendly. They just stare and were very rude. The Food was mediocre at its best, like a 3rd grade cafeteria. They didn't announce/post what meals were going to be served until the time of eating and the time frame for eating was a meager 45 minutes. We missed breakfast twice because it goes from 8am to 845am...... meaning everyone attending the camp ground had 45 minutes to pile into a single line inside the cafeteria/lodge and eat meals, Not buffet style but family style (No options, just 1 meal). As they were prompt to clean up. The food was not Baby friendly and there were no options for anything except yogurt. All in All I wouldn't recommend this place until there is a complete overhaul of how things are run not just the mediocre food, but also the activities for the kids was boring and not well thought out and put together. This place was a huge disappointment for myself and my family. Oh and the beds were absolutely TERRIBLE not comfortable whatsoever, concrete has more cushion than the beds.

What an amazing place to go and have fun, great time for families, singles and all age groups. There are so many things to do here year round and the staff is so kind and make the atmosphere so comfortable. This is great for conferences with an all-inclusive building as well, they are very accommodating to your needs. I am looking forward to going there again as they have everything from campsites to condo's and everything in between on a beautiful lake. With so many amenities and programs for all ages in such a beautiful environment I am counting the days until I am there!

Great old school Christian family summer camp. Tons of activities for the kids and tranquility for the grownups. Morning gatherings and lectures superb.

Plenty of outdoor stuff at the lake plus activities down the street at Camp Squanto.

Can't say the food was great this year, but praise God they were able to open this summer (with a couple of waivers and masks) my kid had a great time!

And looking forward to returning this year with more family members.

A peaceful, rustic experience, with the kindest people, best meals at an event, and a welcoming atmosphere. And so much value for your dollar!

Family camp was a great experience. The PLACE is beautiful and very well maintained, including lodgings and the beach setting. The PACE of the retreat was perfect. The "ACE" that makes everything so good is the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ
