Green River Preserve

Residential, coed environmental summer camp, ages 6-18

Cedar Mountain, NC

Established in 1988

Green River Preserve is a non-competitive, coed summer camp connecting children with nature. Located on a 3,400 acre private wildlife preserve in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, this extraordinary natural setting inspires campers to have a greater understanding of themselves, their environment, and each other. Designed for bright, curious, and creative children, our program nurtures character development and fosters skills like perseverance, curiosity, communication, optimism, creativity, and grit.

Purposefully small, our enrollment is limited to 112 campers per session. Green River Preserve offers 1,2, and 3 week summer camp sessions for campers in the rising 1st through 9th grades and high school expedition programs for rising 9th graders through college freshmen.

The mission of Green River Preserve is to inspire environmental stewards through a joyful connection to nature.
