Sunset Valley in Gorham, NH is a great facility for groups to use. There are two year-round buildings onsite. The Program Center sleeps 24 people in three bunk rooms. There is a large industrial kitchen for groups to use while they are there, along with a meeting/gathering area. The Barn is connected to the Program Center and offers sleeping space for 16 in a sleeping loft. The Barn has a nice kitchen area and also has a meeting/gathering area.
During the summer months, Sunset Valley has plenty of room for tent camping, along with the use of the buildings. There is a field kitchen as well as a pavilion for groups to use. The property connects to the local Moose Brook State Park. Sunset Valley is a great base camp for lots of day trips in the White Mountains region of New Hampshire.
Over the past few years, a troop from Sanbornton, NH has spent many winter weekends at Sunset Valley doing all sorts of activities. Their leader shared, “We have done everything from badge requirements, to staying indoors all weekend and having a fashion show, snowshoeing and outdoor cooking. One year we helped to remove downed tree limbs and branches from the trail to Moose Brook. Another year we took our girls to Nestle Nook Estate and Resort in Jackson, NH to go ice skating as well as visiting with the reindeer. My girls love to stay in the Barn at Sunset Valley and look forward to seeing that orange furniture every year.”
This is the pavilion at Sunset Valley. It is located in the field behind the Program Center and the Barn.

On Sunday, November 22, Goffstown Girl Scouts gathered with veterans and Boy Scouts, friends and family, to have a flag retirement ceremony. The ceremony was held at Camp Kettleford in Bedford, NH. A few of the troops in Goffstown do this annually, but this year the ceremony was even more special. The troops were approached by the Pease Greeters at Pease Air National Guard Base to cut out the fields of blue on the retired flags and then cut out the individual stars. The Pease Greeters are greeting every returning or outgoing service member with a packet: inside is a star (from a retired flag) and a poem to remind them that they are never forgotten.
This is the pavilion that is available for groups to use at Twin Hills. It has electricity, 2 square wooden tables and benches in it.
This is the winterized cabin at Twin Hills. It is heated by a wood stove. The Pixie Cabin offers two long sleeping lofts.
