About

Thank you for considering the Aloha Foundation’s Ohana Family Camp for your event. A historic retreat site of great natural beauty, Ohana was built in the early 1900s primarily as a getaway for families of children attending the many summer overnight camps then active around the Lake Fairlee shore. Our camp currently comprises 21 rustic cabins of one to four bedrooms, a New England style dining hall, and a variety of outbuildings on 116 acres of woodlands, fields, and waterfront. Our property begins at the shoreline of Lake Fairlee and climbs uphill towards the top of the ridge where the camp is located. The land consists of wooded and open terrain with beautiful views down the Middlebrook Valley.

Fulfill your Summer Camp Wedding Weekend dreams!

Ohana is a truly magical place for a wedding, and we are so happy this was the first decision we made when planning our wedding! We knew we wanted to have a summer camp vibe where everyone could stay on site, and our second biggest priority was amazing food - two requests that we were worried would not be possible together. We were wrong! Chef Steve at Ohana created a visionary menu for us - we wanted non-traditional pasta dishes to echo our time studying abroad in Italy, and he delivered. There was a gorgeous trio of pasta dishes that he suggested be served family style, and it was a huge hit with our guests. All of the food throughout the whole weekend was amazing, from the from-scratch toppings for our Friday night taco bar, to the freshly fried arancini appetizers, to the blueberry sauce to top the fluffy pancakes on Sunday morning. The opportunity to celebrate for the entire weekend with our guests staying on site was so special, and the grounds are the best of Vermont’s beauty. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets, crisp nights under the stars, and a beautiful wedding morning spent jumping in the waters of Lake Fairlee. Of course, they are a summer camp in rural Vermont, so remember that they won’t be able to get back to you as quickly as a traditional venue, but it ended up working out totally fine for us. Gretchen, the wedding coordinator, knows how to make the whole weekend run like a well-oiled machine. Our guests could not stop raving about everything the entire weekend, and are still talking about it all 3 weeks later!!! I can’t think of anything that could have went better during the weekend, and it was the most memorable part of our wedding!

Intimate, romantic and exceeded our vision

We had a high bar for our blended family weekend, and our expectations were elevated. The food, the beautiful views, access to activities and beautiful hiking created wins for everyone who attended our wedding. I highly recommend this venue and Gretchen, Vanessa and the chef Steve, are outstanding.

Everything about Ohana was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. First, the venue is *spectacularly* beautiful; all of our guests whom I've spoken with said that their blood pressure dropped by 10 points upon arriving at Ohana and looking out over the lake and mountains.

At least as important: the staff are phenomenally helpful and friendly. We worked very closely with Peggy and Vanessa throughout the process, and they were exactly what we needed. Even when we were at our most stressed, they kept an even keel.

We intend to come back to Ohana year after year with our kids, our friends, and our friends' families. Ohana is now a part of our family.

Vanessa & the crew at the Ohana Camp are the best! The flexibility and attention to detail of the staff were top notch and made them a pleasure to work with. If you're looking for the perfect venue for you and your guests to get away to, we highly recommend that you go check them out - the view from the reception hall will blow you away.
