Have Dog, Will Travel

Do you love spending time with your dog? Does a vacation surrounded by dogs and dog lovers sound like your idea of fun? If so, you’ll love Canine Camp Getaway!

Created for dogs and dog lovers, Canine Camp Getaway is the ultimate dog-friendly vacation, filled with wonderful activities you can share with your four-legged best friend. From agility, barn hunt, hiking and swimming in the dog-friendly pool to lure coursing, nose work, DOGA (dog yoga), canine freestyle dance, “Barks & Crafts” and classes in Canine CPR, dog nutrition and so much more, this resort vacation offers something for everyone!

We welcome dogs of all sizes, ages and abilities, as long as they are social with dogs and humans. No formal training or experience is needed — our trainers, dog sport instructors and staff veterinarians will show you and your dog the ropes, whether your pup is looking to brush up on some old skills or learn a few new tricks. Dogs can try their paw at a wide variety of dog sports, or, if you prefer, you can just take it easy and hang out together by (or in) the pool, enjoy “Yappy Hour” in the dog-friendly lounge, or go for a hike with your best buddy to take in all the new sights and smells.

This is one retreat that’s a real treat — for you AND your dog. So give your dog the gift of a lifetime and sign up today!

Our Facility

Held at the Eisenhower Hotel & Conference Center in Gettysburg, PA (June Camp) and the scenic Blackthorne Resort in the Catskill Mountains in East Durham, NY (September Camp), Canine Camp Getaway offers a choice of scenic locales where you and your dog can be close to nature. Both facilities offer plenty of wide open space for recharging body, mind and spirit, while strengthening the bond with your four-legged buddy.

Best of all, we’re “human friendly” too, so you don’t have to give up the vacation amenities you cherish — like private baths, air conditioning, cable TV, wi-fi, great food (with a special dog-friendly covered outdoor dining area), a dog-friendly bar and nighttime entertainment! If you’d like to explore further afield, the neighboring towns offers hiking, kayaking, farmers markets, shopping, historic sites and more.

Our Client Says

“Mom has taken me to camp for as long as I can remember. I first I was nervous, but I did not need to be. Everyone was so open and welcoming. Mom is always so relaxed so I know it’s a great place to be. I cannot wait for the next camp because this time we are taking my new sister and I know she is going to love it as much as I do.”

“Canine Camp is something we look forward to every year. We have made so many friends coming here and I will continue to come for years to come! My dogs love all the sports and activities and it’s nice being around people who love dogs just as much as you do.”

“Canine Camp Getaway is a special place where you can really enjoy the wide open beauty of nature, play all day with your pup pals and then kick back and relax with your humans."

“Do you want to go to a place where you can feel at home and also make new friends while taking classes and learning new tricks? I have a place just for you! Canine Camp Getaway!! Tell your fur-parents to pack a bag and they’ll be able to have the time of their life too as you make memories together at this amazing interactive dog camp. Agility and lure coursing are just a few of my favorites! I hope to see you soon.”
