Yawgoog Scout Reservation
Yawgoog is the premier Scout Summer Camp in the northeast. When not in operation as a summer camp, Yawgoog has many off-season facilities that bring you back to the camp you love! In the off-season there are cabins, adirondack lean-tos, tent sites, and many acres of hiking trails. Yawgoog is available for camping reservations from September through mid-April.
