founded by

Northwoods Young Writers Camp takes place in June on a Woman Lake, just outside of Longville, Minnesota. There are two 5-day sessions during which teen girls work independently and in groups to write, critique, and build community. If you're a teen girl who loves writing and you're looking for an exciting summer getaway--this is the place, these are your people!

Experienced authors will welcome you to an exclusive 7-bedroom log home on the shores of Woman Lake. A licensed teacher will chaperone the campers in the main lodge. The authors and other teachers will stay in the guesthouse next door. Each session will have 18-21 campers working with all three authors. Not only are the surroundings and mentors inspiring, delicious meals are shared with lively conversation and memorable comradery.  To learn more, explore the "Our Story" tab on this website. To contact us, email [email protected] or call Heather Cavalier at 218-820-9007.
