Location and Facilities
On the shores of Lower St. Regis Lake, surrounded by mountains and forests, Wellspring New York is a fun and exciting place for young women to make new friends and have a fantastic summer while they lose weight. Wellspring New York is located on the campus of Paul Smith’s College, in northern New York, near the Olympic village of Lake Placid. The College, voted by Newsweek in 2005 as the best college for resort-style living, is surrounded by the 6-million acre Adirondack Park. The spectacular mountains, crystal-clear lake and lush forests create an ideal setting for your summer weight loss program.
Wellspring's campus has all the facilities you'd expect to find at a beautiful, modern liberal arts college. There is a full-sized gymnasium for basketball, volleyball, floor hockey and other sports, a full weight training and fitness room, lighted tennis courts, playing fields, and miles of jogging and walking paths. For outdoor adventure, try the ropes course or canoeing on Lower St. Regis Lake. For quiet times, the serene library with breathtaking views is available for Internet access or checking out books. Learn to prepare delicious, healthy meals from our culinary instructor, a professional chef in fully equipped demonstration cooking classrooms. The highlight may be the brand new lakeside dining hall. Enjoy mealtimes and laughs with friends while gazing over the lake at the sunset.
Campers are housed in college dormitories on the shores of Lower St. Regis Lake. Our clean and comfortable dorms have TV lounges and renovated bathrooms. Typically, campers have one roommate selected on the basis of age and being members of the same bunk group.
