If you are challenged by a disability and are searching for a get-away where you can experience new activities or just relax around the campfire watching a beautiful sunset, we are the place for you. You’ll be surrounded by staff and volunteers who will see to your every need. You’ll dine on nutritious home cooked meals featuring gluten free products and fresh fruits and vegetables. While we pamper and attend to your every need, your caregiver’s will have an opportunity to relax and re-charge. Afterall, everyone deserves a vacation.
We’re a little different than most camps in that once you become a camper, you stay a camper. Our minimum age requirement is 12 years and we have no upper limits. We believe wholeheartedly in inclusion and the importance of a community connecting people of all abilities and cultures. We see disability as a culture and camp as a way to celebrate it.
We offered two different programs: Base Camp and Adventure Camp with all sessions spanning 5 days/4nights. We aim to be as accommodating as possible and offer guidelines on eligibility below. Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions

Camper Fees
Need Help Paying for Camp? If you live in Washington State, contact your case manager from the Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA) to ask if you qualify for respite support hours and if they can be used to help pay for camp. If that’s not an option for you, contact your local Lions Club to ask if they might be able to provide you with financial assistance. If you still need help, contact us to learn more about our campership program.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if I’ve never been to a camp before?
We suggest you schedule an appointment for a tour of our campus. It will give you an opportunity to tour the dorms, dining hall and recreation buildings and, get all your questions answered by one of our Program Staff.
What if I can’t afford to pay for Camp? Will DSHS cover the cost of camp?
We offer financial assistance called “CAMPerships” and have no-cost payment plans available. We are an approved DSHS/DDA Respite Care Provider and will work directly with your Case Resource Manager to address billing.
Can I come to camp if I have special dietary requirements?
In most instances we should be able to accommodate you. Please contact us before applying so we may discuss your camper’s individual needs.
