What Windsor Mountain International does

Windsor Mountain International is a privately held, family-owned overnight summer camp founded around 1959 in Windsor, New Hampshire, on a 365-acre private lakefront campus on Franklin Pierce Lake. It operates a non-competitive, co-ed, free-choice program for campers ages 7 through 16, with sessions ranging from two-week mini-sessions to an eight-week full season, and tuition priced from $3,995 to $12,395 per camper for 2026. Campers select from approximately 150 daily activity options across specialty programs including New England sailing, film/video, performing arts, visual arts, and a Leaders-In-Training (LIT) program, supported by an under 4:1 camper-to-staff ratio with international staff recruited from more than a dozen countries each summer.

The business runs on a direct-to-consumer model through the third-party Camp In Touch enrollment platform, with families discovering the camp via the company website, a 360-degree virtual tour, an interactive campus map, video content, an active blog, word-of-mouth referrals, and in-person reunions in NYC and the Boston area. Transportation services from NYC, Mt. Kisco, Boston Logan, and Manchester airports extend reach to non-driving families.

Revenue is generated primarily through summer camp tuition, with secondary streams from fee-based transportation, a refundable camp store deposit, specialty program add-ons, year-round school group programs with private schools (Brimmer and May, Lawrence Academy, Middlesex, Hamden Hall, Fenn, Rivers), and facility rentals for weddings, reunions, and retreats. The camp is ACA accredited, COPPA compliant, and recognized as the first International Summer Camp affiliated with the United Nations. Ownership and direction have been held by Jake and Kerry Labovitz since 2010, with no disclosed institutional investment, funding history, or external parent company.
