Weekend Trip to SCOTTY’s SCAMP

Scott was an incredible host. With a limited window to secure land, Scott accommodated our large group of guys and made sure we were taken care of. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you want a ton of land for activities, but want to be minutes away from the city

Weekend Trip to SCOTTY’s SCAMP

Loved everything about this place! The fields, forest, pond and stream were beautiful and clean. It was very private. The host was super; he gave use all the helpful and useful information about the site but kept it concise. We would definitely camp here again and in fact intend on it very soon!
