Enchanted Hills Camp
Location: Napa, CA
Project Architect(s): Perkins Will
In 2017, wildfire destroyed many of the structures and over 700 trees at Enchanted Hills Camp, which has been serving blind children, youth, adults and their families in Napa since 1950. Overall, 20 structures, almost half of the buildings, were destroyed. The Enchanted Hills team engaged in a rebuilding process with full ADA accessibility and blind design in mind. The camp is being built in phases, which has allowed it to continue to serve the community while areas were under construction. Wright Contracting worked with the Enchanted Hills project team to build 11 cabins, 2 bath house buildings, a blindness training center, a staff common building and a 7,000 SF Commons Building that offers a gathering space with a full commercial kitchen, dining areas and program space, deep in the most beautiful part of the camp, in the shade of the Redwoods. New infrastructure includes underground electric and water with a 420 foot bore section, new 12KV Medium Voltage Electrical distribution, new water tanks and a new parking lot with a 450W Photovoltaic System.
