Tell me about the restroom and shower facilities.

There are many individual modern restroom and shower facilities with flush toilets and hot showers located within 150 feet of each campsite at Cub Adventure Camp. We like to say that Cub Adventure Camp is a “first-time-camper friendly” environment.

 

Who Cooks?

Cub Adventure Camp has a full-service dining hall on site that will provide all meals. There are provisions in the campsites for fires but not for cooking of any meals.

 

What about Tents?

The camp rents up to 8 tents per site and as many cots as they have. Tiger families have first dibs on the tents!
