Gear Up for the Ultimate Adventure at Island Park Scout Camp!

Imagine a place where the air smells of towering lodgepole pines, the mornings are crisp with mountain mist, and your backyard is a gateway to Yellowstone National Park. Welcome to Island Park Scout Camp—where "the great outdoors" isn't just a phrase; it’s a high-octane reality.

Located on the banks of the legendary Henry’s Fork of the Snake River, this isn’t your average walk in the woods. This is where your troop transitions from Scouts to legends.

Why Island Park is the Peak of Your Summer:

Water Like You’ve Never Seen: Whether you’re gliding through glass-like water in a canoe or testing your balance on a paddleboard, the waterfront is the heart of the action. Feeling brave? Take the plunge into the refreshing mountain water!

The Gateway to Yellowstone: You aren't just near the world’s first National Park; you’re its neighbor. Expect breathtaking views, incredible wildlife sightings, and the kind of rugged terrain that makes every hike feel like an expedition.

Sharpen Your Skills: From mastering the bullseye at the shooting ranges to navigating the wilderness with nothing but a compass and your wits, our merit badge programs are taught by staff who live for the outdoors.

Nights Under a Billion Stars: When the sun goes down, the real magic starts. We’re talking massive campfires, Dutch oven cobbler that tastes like heaven, and a night sky so clear you’ll feel like you can reach out and touch the Milky Way.

The "Island Park" Vibe

At Island Park, we don't just "do" camp—we live it. It’s the sound of laughter echoing across the lake, the smell of woodsmoke, the thrill of catching your first high-mountain trout, and the bond your troop will build that lasts a lifetime.

"There’s camp, and then there’s Island Park. It’s the difference between looking at a postcard and living inside one."

Are you ready to trade the screen for the stream and the couch for the campfire? Pack your spirit of adventure, bring your best campfire jokes, and get ready for the best week of your life.

See you at the waterfront!
