Camp Mont Shenandoah is an all-girls summer camp near Millboro Springs, Virginia. Located on 60 acres (24 ha) in the Allegheny Mountains of western Virginia, it was established in 1927, and is one of the oldest continuously-operating summer camps in the state. Its buildings and grounds are mainly in a rustic style befitting the environment. In addition to residential cabins, it has a lodge and dining hall. Activities supported include tennis, basketball, canoeing on the Cowpasture River, and archery, as well as arts and crafts.[2] The camp was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.[1]
