FAQ’s
Glorieta Family Camp Staff wants to make sure you are comfortable with all the details as you pack your bags for a week of intentional family time. If you still have questions, feel free to reach out to family@glorieta.org!
What's the Gameroom all about?
The Family Camp gameroom is one of everyone’s favorite spots to hang out. Stocked with tasty snacks and an espresso machine for original Glorieta drinks. It’s the perfect place to close out the night or spend a rainy afternoon! The foam pit, board games, and arcade games make sure that there’s something for everyone.
What does the Host Family do?
Our host families are here to lead workshops full of discussion and practical, take-home skills and tools for parents. They’re also available throughout the week for times of prayer and counsel.
Is Wi-Fi available?
Yes! we have free Wi-Fi available throughout the Family Camp campus.
Can I do laundry?
- Yes! Our washateria is a short drive from the Family Camp campus and is open to guests 24/7.
Is there anything fun to do in the area before or after out time at Family Camp?
Absolutely! Santa Fe is full of amazing hiking and biking trails, countless amazing restaurants, and beautiful museums. Meow Wolf is another local favorite.
Does Family Camp provide on-site medical care?
All of our guides carry basic first aid supplies, and we have a First Aid station with supplies. We do not, however, have a medical professional available for guests on site. EMS can be at our property in a matter of minutes.
What's Camp Credit?
Camp credit is a way for you to give your kids an “allowance” for retail purchases while you’re at camp. You can add amounts for each person through your Glorieta account.
Do y'all take photos during the session and share them?
More details coming soon!
What's the cancellation policy?
You can cancel your Family Camp registration up to 2 months before the start of your session and get a 100% refund. Within 2 months, the following fees apply:
2 months – 1 month: 50% cancellation fee
1 month – 3 weeks: 60% cancellation fee
3 weeks – 1 week: 70% cancellation fee
Within 1 week: 90% cancellation fee
What is the altitude like?
Glorieta sits at 7,500′, so drinking water before and during your time here is incredibly important. You can expect cold nights and mornings, warm to hot afternoons, and potential thunderstorms in the afternoon. We’re thankful to be in the mountains, but that does mean our weather can change on a dime!

Where is the closest airport? Can you pick us up?
Santa Fe Municipal Airport is 30 minutes from Glorieta and offers flights through American & United Airlines. Albuquerque International Sunport offers many more flights & airlines and is just over an hour from Glorieta.
We do not provide a shuttle service, but the Santa Fe & Albuquerque airports both offer rental car services.Â
How many people come to Family Camp?
We average around 25 families (120 people) per session. Our max capacity is ~200 people.
What age is Family Camp for?
All ages! From infants to great-grandparents, we have something for every member of your family.
What if I'm a single parent?
Each session of Family Camp has a group of single parents, and we aim to serve all types of families and assign summer staff to specifically support single parent families as needed.
What if I don't want to participate in all the activities?
Great! Every activity is optional and there are plenty of great spaces to hang out, relax, and take a nap.
Do I have to come with a church?
Nope, Family Camp is designed for individual families. Several of our families do come with other families from their community to make the trip even more memorable amongst friends!
Can we bring our pets?
As much as we understand that pets are a huge part of our families, the only pets allowed at Family Camp are service animals with appropriate documentation.
What is a hall monitor?
At select times, we provide a hall monitor, a staff member who stays in the hotel lobby and monitors baby monitors for families whose children go to bed early. If a child wakes up, the hall monitor will contact the parents so they can return to their room.
What if it rains or there's lightning?
In the event of rain or lightning, some outdoor activities may be delayed or adjusted for safety. We follow a lightning safety policy, and all outdoor facility activities will be postponed until lightning is more than 7 miles away. We will resume activities as soon as it is safe to do so.
What if my room needs housekeeping service during the week?
If you need additional towels or supplies, simply place the placard outside your room to request service. For guests staying in 5- or 6-night sessions, a mid-week housekeeping service is also provided.
What is signature adventures?
This year we are excited to offer a variety of Signature Adventures designed to add extra fun, adventure, and memorable experiences to your time at camp. We offer both included on-property adventures as well as add-on off-property adventures that can be selected during registration for an additional cost. Designated time slots are built into the schedule so your family can participate in these adventures without missing other camp activities.
Do your kids stay with you the whole time?
They are welcome to stay with you the whole time, but we will have our Kids Tribe open! KidTribe is Family Camp’s childcare program for 0-5-year-olds! Open during Activity Sessions, Bible Studies, and other key times in the schedule, KidTribe gives littles age-appropriate fun, adventure, and Bible lessons.
Will my baby monitor that connects to wifi work at camp?
Yes, but we need to configure it to our security settings, so we ask that you drop it off with us at check-in. This way we can have our IT team set it up, so it is all ready for you to use.
