I’m having an argument with a friend.
Would you send to a camp that the cabins don’t have closets or bathrooms but each circle had beautiful new communal bathrooms which have 20 showers, 20 toilets and 20 sinks with mirrors.
Also, there’s no pool but the camp grounds are surrounded with a gorgeous lake and insane water activities such as tubing, banana boating, speed boats huge inflatables some sections in the lake are closed off for swimming only etc.
She claims no one would send to such a camp. People want a “normal” camp with proper cabins and a proper pool. I think it’s all about the activities and atmosphere and if you offer so many other exciting activities, including mud pits, gaga pits, water slides, foam pits, zip lining etc etc people don’t care…
So, who is right in this argument?

No closets at all? How does that work?

My girls wouldn't like bathhouses and wouldn't like to swim in a lake, so I wouldn't.
Keep in mind that the camp I went to has A/C these days which my daughter enjoys and doesn't understand how we did differently years ago.

If your kids are OK with it, why not?

I think if it becomes a popular camp the kids will mostly make do besides for the ones who are particularly averse to this setup.

Your child would have to be OK going out at night to the bathroom.
Hope there aren't any skunks or raccoons around.

I’m 41. My overnight camp was like this. No bathrooms in our bunk, a few shelves each but no closets. For SURE no AC and no fan in the cabin. We had a very small pool because the lake was leech infested. No water activities.
We had the time of our lives.

I’m 56. We each had three shelves. No AC. No fans. One shower in the bunk for ten girls. A lake, no pool. Canoes and rowboats and camp outs and s’mores. Best friend was met at camp when I was ten. It was awesome. Awesome.

It's advertised as an outdoor experience so those that are interested apply knowing what they're in for.
