Scouts

Girl Scouts, Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts are Youth Acres #1 visitors. Scouts come from all over Central Illinois to camp and work on their scout activities.

Frequently asked question:
  • Q: If I rent one or more of the physical structures (Bungalows, Bunkhouse or Cabin), do I still need to pay for setting up tents?
  • A: Yes. Tents are a separate fee, regardless if you have rented one of the physical structures. Example: (1) Bungalow at $25/night +(up to 3) tents at $25/night = $50 total.
