One Click from Your Next Kid Adventure
Mommy Poppins helps families discover standout activities and summer camps nationwide. Deer Crossing Wilderness Camp is a classic overnight experience on Loon Lake, built for kids who love outdoor challenges, creative arts, and unplugged community.
Why This Camp Stands Out
- Immersive wilderness setting: Our camp sits on a granite peninsula in the Desolation Wilderness near Lake Tahoe.
- Balanced programming: Sailing, climbing, and wilderness skills alongside music, art, and theater.
- Small-session energy: A tight-knit 50-camper session size keeps kids supported and known.

We’re happy to share a sample schedule, packing list, and a family Q&A guide.
“The staff were so present and encouraging. My camper came home confident, capable, and totally proud of herself.”
