The vision

One lake. One community. Ahdut.

Camp Ahdut Yisrael is planned for Wildwood Lake in Monticello, NY, one of the last original bungalow colonies in Sullivan County. The old bungalows give way to fifteen family lake homes, a shul overlooking the water, and a main house where every family gathers for meals, Shabbos and simchas. Recreation is ready for every age, and the whole property is private, gated and surrounded by forest.

“Every family arrives to its own home on the water, and the whole camp comes together as one.”
Overview

The Campus

Fifteen lake homes along the shore, the main house and shul at the center, and courts, fields, pools and play areas set among the trees behind them. All of it is private and gated.

A light-filled shul overlooking the lake, with a carved Aron Kodesh, long rows of learning tables, and a gallery above. This is where the community davens, learns and celebrates.

Fifteen Lake Homes

Fifteen homes ring the lake. Each is about 2,000 sq ft of brick and stone with four bedrooms, a laundry room, a chef's kitchen and open living spaces. Every deck faces the water with its own hot tub, and every home has a private jet ski at the dock and a golf cart and ATV at the door.
