People: The Center's resident population consists of approximately one hundred people including students, staff and faculty.
Activities: Group activities offered include hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park (supervised, of course!), swimming, horseback riding, craft projects, and visits to the nearby resort town of Estes Park. These activities foster friendships and a remarkable sense of community spirit for which Rocky Ridge has become known.
In keeping with the community spirit established by the environmentalists who homesteaded this historic property, you will also participate in a daily work crew, an essential part of the operation of Rocky Ridge and a great way to make friends.
Facilities: The facilities at Rocky Ridge consist of some 36 buildings. These include a main lodge, dining hall, office, and series of cabins and practice rooms.
Buffet style meals are served at meal times in the dining hall. Additionally, the dining hall is used for performances, and can accommodate a chamber orchestra, and audience of about 100 people.
Housing: Your summer home will be historic log and clapboard cabin nestled in the woods of this National Historic District. You'll share a cabin with four to six other students. The cabins range in size and facilities. Some have separate bathrooms with toilets and showers. Some are near the girls and boys bathhouse facilities.
All cabins have electricity and electric heat. The girls' area includes eight of the original log cabins. The boys' area cabins include both clapboard and log style. The remaining cabins, as well as faculty housing, are interspersed throughout the campus. Beds, but no bedding is provided.
