Westview On The James

United States, Goochland

Overview

Tucked away on a pastoral paradise in Goochland lies the summer haven known as Westview on the James. This Christian-focused retreat encourages children to foster their faith, while reveling amidst the splendor of nature. Incepted in 1966 by the United Methodist Church as a sanctuary to cultivate a deeper link with God, Westview has since grown into a vibrant secular ground for spiritual and personal growth. To frame it in perspective, picture this! You're in a fairy-tale-like setting stretching over 780 acres of pulsating green hills and fields. A cerulean expanse of an 18-acre lake sparkles under the sun, while an enchanting river traces a sinuous path for over a mile. Splash! Laugh! Connect! As the sun sets, let the soothing lull of the ripples cradle your campfire conversations. Beneath a canopy of stars, children not only imbibe a sense of camaraderie but also learn to navigate life's path with a faith-strong compass. Westview's ethos promotes spiritual growth firmly anchored in the limitless possibilities of experiential and outdoor education. The camp experience, enriched by the vitality of nature, offers the perfect recipe for defining moments and fond memories. After all, isn't that what unforgettable summers are stitched from? Just like an open book waiting to share its narratives, Westview on the James invites you to join in an extraordinary adventure of discovery, faith, and joy. Remember, it’s not just another summer camp; it's where lifelong memories are forged and hearts are placed closer to God.
