California Overnight Summer Camps

California overnight summer camps – Deer Crossing Camp offers fun on the water! Kayaking, sailing, paddle boarding, swimming, rafting and more! We have fun evening activities such as guitar, theater, fishing and evenings at camp ring with the sounds of campers playing ping pong, volleyball or taking first aid classes. The game cabinet is stocked with everything from Monopoly to chess. In our wilderness location glorious sunsets are followed by staff pointing out all the summer constellations against truly dark skies. At Deer Crossing, campers are expected to be responsible for themselves and their belongings. Please give your camper the camp packing list and have them pack pack their own gear so they know what they have and where it is.

For ease of carrying on rocky mountain paths, use a backpack and duffel bag for your camper’s gear. No footlockers, suitcases, or roller bags. Pack everything but the sleeping bag and ground pad in the backpack; then tie the sleeping bag below the backpack and the ground pad on top of the backpack. Ready to go!
