Nice camp operated by the Greater St. Louis Area Council. Great spot for kids to learn about nature, ride horses, and go camping. Note that this private property and a BSA permit to enter is required.
I loved camping there and Went backpacking can’t wait to go back
My son enjoyed the day with his scout pack meeting older scouts. The weather was cold but the spot is gorgeous and feels like you are more remote than 20m away from home. My son always enjoys himself when we’re there- partly for the surroundings and partly for the scout leaders who do an amazing job teaching the kids helpful skills.
Marvelous campground right on the outskirts of St. Louis County. The updated dining hall is perfect for big and small troop events as well as hosting summer camps. Camp grounds are well organized and platforms for tents are nice for keeping your gear out of the dirt. Cub world offers some of the most unique structures for younger scouts to play around. Hiking trails are pretty much clearly marked and the back country campsites are nice for older scouts.
Beaumont is a great, huge, property that is wonderfully close to St. Louis. The main road is 2.5 miles long! Note: Beaumont is private property for use only by Scouting programs. Our scout troop has camped here several times a year. We have used the large camporee sites as well as the cabins in winter. We have always enjoyed it rain or shine or snow!
Disgusting 🤮. I know there are out houses at the campsites. But they didn't even spray them down before the biggest event of the year, Adventure Summit. Literal shit was on the fronts of the toilets all dried up. Everyone uses the same out houses. Boys, girls, and leaders need to be using separate restrooms.
