Boy Scout Camp Sites

I've been going her for years. In fact, my profile picture was taken on lake courage by the freedom beach. Heritage, and especially camp freedom, offer a lovely summer camp experience to all scouts. There are still issues with creating a good environment for minorities in scouting that come from the national and council levels that trickle down into the camping experience.

Heritage, and especially camp freedom, offer a lovely summer camp experience to all scouts. There are still issues with creating a good environment for minorities in scouting that come from the national and council levels that trickle down into the camping experience. There is no way to deny that. At the same time, I commend the staff for the lengths they'll go to to protect the scouts under their care. During the off season, they hold other fun events, or you can visit for a nice hike around the lake. Definitely check it out!!

On the Camp Independence side, newer bathhouse with numerous single showers/bathroom combos and water bottle filling station, really nice hiking trails, permanent orienteering course, easy walk to the lake for aquatics, and latrines with running water at every campsite (not sure if that water is potable though as we brought a 5-gallon jug to sit at the campsite and filled up at the dining hall/wat...

Kids loved playing on the pirate ship and fort, and the camp staff is always helpful and amazing.

Very fun camping experience with our Cub Scout Pack. I was disappointed that the trails were not well maintained. The red trail has a section that was very difficult to get through: lots of down trees, overgrown vegetation including thorns. And missing trail markers were a problem throughout. The bathroom facilities were also lacking and not well maintained; broken tp and paper towels dispensers... Very fun camping experience with our Cub Scout Pack.

Great experience camping for the weekend with Troop #44 and attending Cubscout Fall Fest. The cabin was very cool- built to look like a large ship. The indoor plumbing was a plus and the large mess hall made cooking for the troops convenient and easy. The cabin could use some maintenance, there was a leaky skylight that water got in and is causing some of the wood to rot. But overall it is kept fa...

I often join a friends family for a few nights every October and stay in a cottage. The cottages are very nice and always clean. Some are starting to show their age a bit, but its camping and the rustic feel is fine. The staff are all super firendly and very accomdating. Location is great too, $15 Uber ride to center of town.

Nice enough campground, but could definitely use some improvements. It's quite large, I got lost walking one night. Lots of seasonals, so parts of it are cluttered from too much junk. Pool was closed for the season, so I can't speak to that, but the bathrooms by the office were dirty and smell musty. Same for the laundry facilities. Musty smelling and old machines. They have golf carts to rent, th... Nice enough campground, but could definitely use some improvements. It's quite large, I got lost walking one night. Lots of seasonals, so parts of it are cluttered from too much junk. Pool was closed for the season, so I can't speak to that, but the bathrooms by the office were dirty and smell musty. Same for the laundry facilities. Musty smelling and old machines. They have golf carts to rent, there is a game room, and also a small mini golf course. Office staff was friendly. It was quiet when we went, but most of the seasonals were gone since it was late September. I could see how it could potentially be loud during the summer because of the multitudes of RVs that are packed in close together. Site itself was pretty small. We had no room to put up our hammocks.

Unfortunately here for a week. Booked a premium site over 8 months ago. Couldn’t pick site, and now that we are here, we are right next to a loud highway. Can’t move unless we want to move again through the week. Would love to cancel but cant get in anywhere else without moving multiple times. Called Thousand Trails, it’s essentially my fault and they were no help. This is our first Thousand Trail... Unfortunately here for a week. Booked a premium site over 8 months ago.

I stayed at Drummer Boy Campground and RV, and it was a really great experience. The campground is very big, so you should bring a bike or wear good walking shoes, because there is a lot of space to cover. I actually liked how big it was, since there was always something to see and do. Everyone there was very friendly, and it felt super safe the whole time. That made it even more enjoyable. There...

I actually liked how big it was, since there was always something to see and do. Everyone there was very friendly, and it felt super safe the whole time. That made it even more enjoyable. There are also tons of activities for families, so kids and adults can all have fun. Whether you’re hanging out at the campground or heading out to explore, there’s always something going on. One of the best parts is that Drummer Boy is really close to Gettysburg. If you’re interested in history, this campground is perfect because you can easily visit all the battlefields, museums, and other historic sites nearby. It’s awesome for families who like to learn about the past while also enjoying the outdoors. We stayed in one of the cabins, and it was very comfortable. The cabins have most of what you need for a couple nights, but if you plan to cook, you should bring your own pots, pans, or cooking tools. The cabins are cozy and clean, and they make a great choice if you don’t have an RV. Overall, I highly recommend Drummer Boy Campground and RV. It’s fun, safe, close to amazing history, and a perfect spot for families.
