Yarmouth Camp Ground Historic District
Yarmouth Camp Ground Historic District, Religious camp meeting ground in Yarmouth, Massachusetts.
The Yarmouth Camp Ground Historic District spans 60.6 acres of land with residential buildings and pathways near two kettle ponds off Willow Street.
The Methodist Episcopal organization purchased this land in 1863 for summer religious gatherings, operating the camp meetings continuously until 1939.
The district contains numerous Gothic Revival cottages that replaced the original tents, reflecting the evolution of religious summer camp architecture in the 1800s.
The district lies south of Massachusetts Route 6, with boundaries defined by County Avenue, Willow Street, Wood Road, and Camp Ground Pond.
The Yarmouth Camp Ground Association, formed in 1946, maintains the district's historical structures and ensures the preservation of its original character.
