Pine Acres Campsite

Situated in one of the flattest sections of East Camp and nestled in a mature mixed pine and hardwood forest, Pine Acres is closest to Ecology Conservation, Magee Lodge (first aid station), Scoutcraft, Brownsea Island Adventure (first year camper program) and East Lodge. Welcoming larger-sized units, this campsite has four well laid out patrol sites holding eight Scouts each and one patrol site holding 10 Scouts. The farthest patrol site (eight Scouts) toward High Mesa is considered a “swing site” that can be used by either Pine Acres or High Mesa as needed. The two leader tents hold a maximum of three adults each. Pine Acres is a designated unit cooking campsite, and the hard-roofed shelter has a cooking extension with a food storage cabinet and a propane stove, griddle, and hot water heater. The hard-roofed shelter has a solar powered LED lighting system (summer only), so you can cut back on or eliminate propane lanterns. This campsite is not available for fall-winter-spring camping when the water system is shut down.
