We have prepared a place for you at Sonlight
A space designed for you, we invite you to embrace what we have to offer
The Sonlight Leadership team looks forward to welcoming you to our retreat space. Sonlight is hosting your group, providing facility and foodservice. Your group leader is providing program, schedule details and all the leadership. Sonlight is primarily a youth camp, we invite you to embrace this space designed for youth.
Sonlight Camp is able to provide for some food allergies and intolerances if advance notice is given. Many of our meals are served deconstructed, so you may choose your ingredients. Some meals are blended (lasagne) so advance notice of dietary allergies and intolerances will be necessary for our food service staff. Meals are served family style, as we enjoy sharing meals in community. Sonlight does provide snacks. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate are always available. Read more
We love that your group has chosen to hold the retreat in a space designed for youth, and invite you to embrace youth space. Sleeping is dorm style, there are no private accommodations. Some cabins have bunkbeds. All sleeping areas have their own restrooms. You provide your own sleeping bag or sheets/blankets. Pillows are provided. There are some outlets near beds for devices.
Sonlight is remote, there is no cell service in the area. Wifi is at hand in the main Sonlight lodge if your group leader chooses to make it available to the group. (Wifi does not extend to all the cabins.) A landline is available should you need to make calls.
On the Sonlight property you can discover several miles of trails suitable for hiking or mountain biking. The outdoor hot tubs are available 24 hours a day, bring a suimsuit! In the winter months snowshoes are available. In the fall there is disc golf, geocaching, hammocks and plenty out outdoor seating to enjoy a good book in the mountain air. Puzzles and games are available
Sonlight is located 7 miles north of Pagosa Springs, on a gravel road. The address is 1536 Sonlight Place. When you arrive at camp, park in the first lot you turn in to, and the main lodge will be easy to see. Contact us
There is a landline telephone and radio in the dining room by the kitchen window. Sonlight leadership staff monitor the radio 24 hours a day when guests are on site. The leadership team lives on site, so are quickly available should any guest have needs. The contact phone number to share with anyone outside of camp is (970)264-4379. The phone is not answered during night hours. Wifi is available in the main camp area if your group leader chooses to provide it to your group.

Due to the unique nature of a “temporary community” shared by many guests at one time, Sonlight Camp requests that pets do not accompany guests during their stay. State regulations (no pets in dining areas) and guest allergies create challenges to hosting guests who bring pets.
