Our Waterfront

Half Mile of Pristine Lake Adventures

Our Waterfront has a half-mile of frontage on quiet Lower Beech Pond. We have a fleet of sailboats, canoes, kayaks and rowboats, a watersport boat, a top-quality swimming area, fishing equipment and a volleyball court for those taking a break from the water. Grandfathered in as having the the only motorboat on the lake, boat traffic is not a concern for our boys in the water.

Required & Regular Swimming Lessons

At William Lawrence Camp, we understand the vital importance of swimming as a life skill.
 
Each morning, our campers are guided by Red Cross-certified instructors dedicated to improving their swimming techniques.
 
Our comprehensive lessons focus on developing strong, confident swimmers, ensuring every camper gains proficiency in various strokes.
 
This is more than just a fun activity; it’s about equipping young boys with a crucial skill that ensures safety and builds lifelong confidence in and around water.
