So what is Bookish Camp and what does it include?
Bookish Camp first came to life in September 2024. This exclusive summer camp for book lovers features a variety of activities that are all included with camp such as archery, axe throwing, crafting, high ropes, low ropes, bonfires, dance classes, theme nights, and so much more. All meals are included for the duration of your stay as well as access to a commercial kitchen to store any additional drinks and snacks you may want for the weekend.
Each year we try to include new and fun events to keep camp entertaining for all. This camp is exclusively for the ladies and those identifying as such. We hope to have a co ed one in the near future. Please note: this is a primitive campground experience. There are no bathrooms located in the cabins. There is a large bath house in the center of cabin row. Dining hall is like a cafeteria layout. Walking on gravel paths are the main way of transportation at camp.
