Camp Mahackeno is part of Westport, Connecticut history. More than 300 years ago, the Indian Sachem Mahackemo (spelled with an m) used the property as a summer lodge for himself and his tribe. In 1938, Camp Mahackeno began as a "stay at home camp" for boys. The original camp was a rugged place with some 15 small cottages and no running water. Mahackeno became a day camp for girls and boys in 1969. Our mission is to create a safe environment where campers can have fun and feel good about themselves while making new friends and discovering the world around them.
