In winter, it is wonderful for snowmobiling, or for nordic and backcountry skiing - there are 3 areas with groomed nordic trails within half an hour, and backcountry skiing at the New England Outdoor Center. If you like to whitewater raft or kayak, you are in the best place for that in New England. Also, the camp is a great location for small retreats as the garage area is large enough for meetings, for picnics, for teaching and learning. There are also multiple places on the property where you can sit on your own to write, make art, read, or just contemplate the universe!
