Common Questions About Camp
Can I stay in the same cabin with my friend?
We understand the desire to share a cabin with a friend, and we try to accommodate cabin requests when possible. However, our primary focus is to ensure a positive, balanced experience for all campers. We typically assign cabins based on age groups to encourage campers to make new friends and build a sense of community. If your child has a close friend attending the same session, you can request to have them placed in the same cabin, and we will do our best to accommodate the request based on availability and cabin capacity. Please note that while we try to honor requests, placements are ultimately based on creating the best experience for all campers.
Do we sleep outside?
No, campers do not sleep outside. Children sleep in comfortable cabins with bunk beds, where they are supervised by trained counselors. Each cabin is designed to provide a safe, cozy, and secure environment for a restful night’s sleep, so campers are well-rested and ready for the next day’s activities.

How does drop off and pick up work?
Our drop-off and pick-up process is designed to be efficient and organized, featuring a drive-thru format with designated tables and stations. This process ensures we gather all necessary information, collect medical supplies, and address any questions or concerns you may have. Our goal is to make the process as smooth and streamlined as possible while ensuring every detail is taken care of!
Is the food good?
Yes, we take great pride in offering nutritious, delicious, and well-balanced meals at camp! We offer both familiar favorites and new, exciting meals to keep things interesting. We have three meals daily, a "refresh time" in the afternoon, and a bedtime snack. Our goal is to ensure that every camper is well-fed and energized throughout their camp experience.
