Royal Amassador Dining Hall

At Oceanwood's beautiful dining hall, guests enjoy family-style dining in the summer.  The vaulted ceilings make it feel like the banquet hall of kings and queens.

The dining hall is the heart of the Oceanwood home and is located in the center of the camp. Round dining room tables are set up throughout the hall, and the Oceanwood chef prepares sumptuous cuisine in a clean, industrial-style kitchen.  Wheat and dairy-free diets are accommodated. Please contact us if you have any allergies.  infomasacote@gmail.com

Oceanwood Activities

When you're taking a break from all the salsa training, feel free to travel to the nearby beach only a 5 minute walk from the camp and unwind after a hard day's work.

Or, if you're looking for other games or physical activities, play a game of basketball on one of the camp's many courts, grab a frisbee, or play some soccer on the camp grounds.

If you're looking for something more quiet, camp out on one of the camp's many log swings and chat with friends or read a book in the open air of the camp grounds.

Wednesday classes will end at 12:30pm and certain activities will be open to all, including rock climbing and low ropes and archery.

Best of all, an on campus masseuse will be available specifically for Masacote retreat guests looking to work out those sore muscles!

 

 

 

Oceanwood Land

Outside the buildings at Oceanwood, you will find flower beds, meadows, woodland paths and giant old maple trees.

Oceanwood sits on 175 acres of wooded land that extend seamlessly into a great expanse of forest. Winding trails around the camp make for delightful adventures for walking or running hikes.  This is the perfect place for taking personal retreats, rejuvenating, and observing nature.

Oceanwood sits only four blocks from the Atlantic! Take a day to visit Old Orchard Beach, and try to schedule a morning to watch the sunrise over the ocean.  The seven-mile long stretch of wide sandy beach is understandably the major attraction, but there is also an amusement park at the beachfront with arcades, carousels, ferris wheels, coasters and more!

 

Don't wait! This is a ONCE IN A LIFETIME Experience!
Space is Limited to ONLY 25 Women & 25 Men!
