ABOUT CAMP
Girl Scouts of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois is proud to own and operate four camp properties. Each camp is a beautiful wooded acreage with rolling hills, native prairies and peaceful waterways, offering plenty of opportunities for fun and adventure.
We extend an invitation to Girl Scout troops, civic organizations and the general public to come and use our camps. Youth organizations, churches, schools and businesses have found our camps to be great places to gather for team building, educational retreats and relaxation.
Each of our camps is located in a rural setting in eastern Iowa. Because they are privately owned by the Girl Scouts and supervised by an on-site ranger, our sites offer security and privacy. Housing and sleeping accommodations vary, from winterized buildings to platform tents. Activities such as volleyball, tetherball, and our newest addition, Gaga Pits, are just some of the activities available.

Summer Resident Camp
At our summer resident (overnight) camps, girls get a taste of independence in a safe and fun environment. Campers enjoy the best parts of being a kid: learning and playing in groups where everyone belongs, trying new and different activities and exploring nature hands on.
Troop Camping
One of the most popular ways girls experience the outdoors is with their troops. From backpacking, multi-day canoe trips, backyard camping, or a day at a local park, our volunteers teach girls about nature and the outdoors every day.
All four of our camp properties are available throughout the year for troop camping. Find out which camp is right for you or make a plan to visit them all.
Note: Taking your troop camping requires some basic trainings to be sure you are ready for your overnight adventure. Contact Adult Learning for more information.
Day Camp
Held during the day or in the evening these camps are a local bit of outdoor adventure for any girl. There are many day camp experiences throughout our council run by dedicated and talented volunteers. All of these camps combine the traditions of outdoor Girl Scout experiences with fun girl led activities. Some day camps offer an optional overnight for experienced day campers.
All of our community day camps can be found on our searchable online calendar.
Equestrian Camp
Our equestrian program includes troop riding, private lessons, and summer horse camp.
To ensure girls start their outdoor journeys with strong, confident steps, Girl Scouts will renovate and develop the New Liberty camp. This project will be split into three phases, and we invite you now to help make the first phase of this project a reality. Visit Outdoor Odyssey to learn more.
Few things are as memorable for a girl as going away to camp for the summer. While she may not remember exactly how this rite of passage made her more responsible and independent or how it gave her an appreciation for nature, she’ll know it did.
And she’ll remember sleeping under the stars, making s’mores around the fire and singing silly camp songs in the warm breeze with her new friends for years to come.
Without a doubt camp leaves a positive, lasting impression on those who are fortunate enough to experience it.
