Where you stay
Boardwalk: Our traditional Adult Camp lodging and the epicenter of the party in the heart of government camp. This lodging option offers bunk-bed accommodations in shared rooms with multiple living rooms, hot tubs and a game room.
Big Bear: This modern log cabin lodge is tucked in the woods a short walk up the hill from the center town. This lodging option offers single and double bed accommodations in shared rooms with a large living room and hot tub.
Little Bear: This quiet Swiss chalet style cabin is located right across the creek from Big Bear Lodge. This lodging option offers single and double bed accommodations in shared rooms with a cozy living room and hot tub.
All three options are complete with hot tubs and a private chef who makes healthy meals highlighting local PNW ingredients.
Everything But Lodging - Exactly like it sounds, the full camp experience minus a place to stay. Most stay in the town of Government Camp in a vacation rental, or hotel room.
Getting There
- All Inclusive - Just arrive at PDX with your snowboard gear. We’ll take care of the rest.
- Each camper is responsible for booking their own flight into and out of the Portland Airport on the first and last day of their session between 8am and 4pm.
