Wildwood Camp: Family Camp - Platform Tent

Description

Family Camp is fun for campers of all ages-from toddlers to grandparents! Whether this is your first time camping, or your first time in a while, Wildwood has just what your family needs to enjoy some quality time together in a safe, quiet, and beautiful natural setting. Bring the whole family to explore nature, recharge, reconnect with one another, and meet other outdoor-loving families.

A variety of fun, age-appropriate activities are always available, including: swimming, kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, sailing, nature crafts, hiking, Gaga court, volleyball, birding, ponding, and maybe a Talent contest. There are also plenty of opportunities to relax on our waterfront beach, in our Chill Out Zone hammocks, or at a campfire!

Each family group, up to eight people, is housed in their own platform tent, rustic cabin, yurt, or adirondack complete with bunkbeds and mattresses. Toilets and hand-washing stations are also within each unit. The central shower building, including sinks and composting toilets, is a short walk from your unit. There are 4-8 platform tents, 9 cabins, 4 yurts and 4 adirondacks available each session. Be sure to select the correct session listing for your desired housing option!

Family Camp begins in the afternoon on Day 1 and ends at 3pm on the last day.
