The Coolest Summer Camp-Style Airbnbs, From a Former Girl Scout Lodge to an Upstate New York Compound
Whether or not summer camp was a part of your childhood memories, it’s not difficult to pull together a visual: minimal bunk beds, wood-sided cabins, fire pits, the soft sound of grass or gravel crunching underfoot, the sun setting over a lake. It’s romantic, nostalgic, and fun, all rolled up into one vacation vibe—and it’s great for all ages.
Family trips big and small are the perfect time to level-up the summer camp experience surrounded by loved ones. Luckily, you don’t have to limit yourself to the “roughing it” mentality. There are a ton of options on Airbnb that can give you that jolt of nostalgia but with modern comforts. From literal summer camp grounds that are now available for large group rentals to a fire-lookout-turned-treehouse perfect for a couple looking to get off the grid, there are plenty of ways to get that summertime cabin-in-the-woods vibe—even if you’re visiting the desert.
Ahead, check out eight of our favorite summer camp-style Airbnbs.
