About Camp Kaufmann

Camp Kaufmann is located in Holmes, New York, just over the Dutchess County border, 70 miles north of midtown Manhattan. With over 425 acres of rolling hills, the property offers a beautiful landscape.

You may notice a fenced off area at camp where there is ongoing construction. We are in the process of building Girl HQ, a brand-new dining hall and activity center for the Girl Scouts of Greater New York. The anticipated date of completion is November 2023.

This summer, Camp Kaufmann is offering two types of experiences: Day Trips and Troop Camping. Both new and experienced campers are welcome!

Facilities include a lake for boating and fishing, a pool, several hiking trails, an art pavilion, and a climbing wall. Camp Kaufmann is the perfect place for Girl Scouts to learn a new skill, appreciate nature, experience leadership roles, enjoy the outdoors, make lifelong friendships, and learn to make the world a better place!
