Camp Interlaken for girls operated in Croydon, New Hampshire, from 1923 to 1963. Interlaken was owned and operated by the Dudley family of Hanover, New Hampshire. The camp was known for its location on Lake Coniston (Long Pond) and its equestrian programs. Famous alumni of the camp include actress Blythe Danner.
In 1963 the Dudleys sold Camp Interlaken to the YMCA in order to perpetuate youth camping in this location. Children and grandchildren of Interlaken campers attend camp at YMCA Camp Coniston to this day.
Prior to the YMCA moving to this site, it operated under the name Camp Soangetaha on nearby Rand Pond.
After the Dudleys sold the camp in Croydon, it was relocated to Sharon, Vermont, where it existed into the 1970s.
