Welcome to Ipswich River Nature Camp!

Welcome • Rates & Dates • About Camp • Day Camp Policies

Ipswich River Nature Camp gives campers ages 5–14 a unique opportunity to learn about nature, meet new friends, and have fun outside. Our knowledgeable staff encourages an educational, non-competitive camp environment for memories that will last a lifetime.

We offer camp in two locations—at Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary in Topsfield and at the Church of Saint Andrew in Marblehead.
