• Schedule: A standard weekend reservation runs from Friday 5 pm through Sunday 10 am, with check-in between 5 pm and 9 pm on Friday or before 4 pm on Saturday, and check-out by 10 am on Sunday.
• Price: Cabins start at $200 per weekend with a $100 non-refundable deposit included; Webelos Campsite is $85.00 in-council or $105 out-of-council per weekend; campsites are $50.00 in-council for any capacity campsite or $60 out-of-council per weekend; campsites with lean-tos start at $60; day visits are $35.00; the dining hall is $150 for the main hall or $400 with kitchen for the weekend; boating is $60 per 4-hour session for in-council units and $75 for out-of-council units, and a $25.00 cleaning charge may be assessed at the ranger’s discretion.
Camp Bullowa’s Webelos Campsite includes a pavilion and is located next to the main parking lot, and tent and lean-to sites require units to supply their own tents and equipment, with water and a latrine nearby. The dining hall has a capacity of 130, is rented for the weekend, includes some pans, and does not include plates, utensils, or overnight camping space. Camp Bullowa notes that A-Field and B-Field are designated as premier camping areas where no parking of vehicles or trailers is permitted. The camp highlights nearby Historic 1777 and 1779 Revolutionary Trails that follow routes of British and American military expeditions, and lists the world’s tallest indoor ropes course at 85 feet (Palisades Climb Adventure) as an area attraction.
All boaters must wear life jackets provided by the camp, and units must have a leader trained in Safety Afloat and a leader trained in CPR to rent the boats, with CPR and Safety Afloat trainings required for boating. Visitors are advised to bring their own pole, bait, and tackle box for fishing, and to wear long pants and long sleeves when hiking the trails and check themselves all over afterward due to a severe tick warning noting an abundance of ticks, some carrying Lyme disease. Sleeping bags, sheets, pillows, towels, and all personal items are not provided. The Camp Bullowa ranger is Bob Steuerman. The mission of Scouting America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law. For non-Scouting units, the camp states that they are welcome to use the facilities with some restrictions, and must email [email protected], provide proof of insurance for their group, and complete a rental agreement.
