Set in the Massanutten Mountain of the Shenandoah Valley, Caroline Furnace is a place for groups to come together to meet God in God's creation.

Serving the Lord since 1957, we are a Lutheran Summer Camp and year-round Retreat Center. Our main property rests on nearly 250 acres in Fort Valley, VA, where we have a Cabin Village, Sukkah Village, Farmhouse and meeting facilities, as well as a network of trails with established campfire sites, a low ropes Community Development Course, and a lake. We invite you to be part of our ministry!

Camp looks a little different in October. 🍂

The leaves are changing, the air is getting cooler, and Fort Valley is settling into a new season. We’re grateful for every season spent surrounded by this beautiful place!
