We came early for Eerie Emerson and hiked up to Centennial Oak campground. Unfortunately, the fall leaves covered the trail and we had to search for it for an hour. For future campers, here are the coordinates: 33°44'37.0"N 116°44'12.6"W 33.743618, -116.736841 It's a beautiful location...enjoy!
The Boy Scouts and cub scouts love this place. It's lovely scenery provides a great learning environment for various scout related goals. Most Recently, Zombie Apocalypse Camp hosted older scouts and taught survival skills, wilderness training, and more all in a fun themed environment.
Beautiful outdoor center with nice activities and hiking trails. Only for scouts
Nice place for kids and family
Been there 3 times now with our troop and it's been great every time. Only complaint is the soft dirt kicks up a lot when we're walking around, but there's nothing you can do about that.
