One of the best BSA camps in Colorado. Beautiful acreage, great, and newly renovated facilities, and the food is top notch with the portion being plentiful. Lots of Merit Badge choices and spirited fun loving staff. This a gotta visit camp for all scouts!
A+ summer camp!! Great merit badge selection and good food. It’s spread out so you’ll get your steps in. Very friendly staff and excellent programming.
The place is a great camp and a great dining hall with great food, but I had to write an essay that wasn’t required in the Merit Badge. (My son wrote that)
Horseback riding, swimming, boating, shooting sports, and other fun await! Convenient to Denver, Colorado Springs, and Castle Rock scouters. Currently due to uptick in covid cases, they require masks while indoors to avoid a breakout and keep the camp running. Google maps lead me about a half mile too far north to an entrance that is now closed. I doubled back and found the correct entrance. Picture of the correct entrance attached.
This scout camp is good. The facilities are great. The cost to attend vs variety of classes offered is terrible. If you can not get into the classes you want, you can not get a refund. This is an awful policy/ practice.
There are cute indoor areas that 1 can rent to have an event at. Has Bluetooth set up but speakers aren’t loud.
