Camp Happy Valley


Camp Happy Valley

50 Girl Scout Road | Fairfield, PA 17320

Camp Happy Valley is located in Fairfield, Adams County. Modern facilities allow for year-round camping. Divided into upper camp (Skyloft) and lower camp (Aspen Lodge and Applewood Unit), Happy Valley can house two diverse groups; each with its own separate areas.

Founded in 1955, Camp Happy Valley has wooded areas and gently sloping grassy fields, which offer additional tent-camping space. In the summer, overnight accommodations can house up to 104 people, with room for 90 additional people in tents in the fields if established units are full. In the winter, established units can accommodate 80 people overnight. There is also space available for up to 200 people for daytime events.
