Camp Deerwood was founded in 1945 by Ferris & Helen Thomsen.
After scouting around New England for many months, they snowshoed to this spot and fell in love with the area. Deerwood is now run by the third and fourth generations of the Thomsen family.
The friendly & supportive atmosphere is led each summer by a core of long time counselors. This past summer, Deerwood had 23 counselors with 10+ years of experience.
