What is a lean-to? A lean-to is a 3-sided structure, open in the front. It sleeps 8 people on four sets of bunks (with mattresses). Also inside, is a small storage cabinet, some shelving, a picnic table, and a tinder/kindling box. In front of the lean-to is a smaller table with dry firewood stacked underneath. This table is still under the roof so rain/snow does not land on it. Also in front is a stone fireplace, with cooking grate, and at some lean-to's, a steel "arm" to hold pots above the fire. These are basically for cooking, and small campfires - they are not designed to heat the lean-to.

Off Season Camp Reservation Refund Procedure
With a recognition that sometimes even the best-laid plans need to be adjusted and that financial resources for our units are precious, the following camp reservation refund procedure is in place for all non-summer camp facility reservations.Each reservation fee includes a 50% non-refundable deposit which will be forfeit upon cancelation.
- More than 60 Days until Reservation: A refund of 50% of fees paid will be issued.
- Less than 60 Days until Reservation: No refund will be provided unless the facility is booked by another group on the date of your reservation.
If the camp closes because of weather, units will be contacted by the camping team. If the camp closes a full refund or a full credit for a future reservation within the same calendar year will be made.
The future reservation must be booked within two weeks of the time of cancellation.
All cancellations and rebooking must be done by speaking with our Camping and Program support staff by calling 585-241-8545.
If excessive cleaning is required, the campmaster or ranger will communicate to your party prior to your departure. The group can remain on site and return the facility to a clean condition or the cleaning fee will be applied. If your group leaves prior to being checked out by the ranger or campmaster, a cleaning fee may be added if excessive cleaning is required. In Scouting, be sure to always leave your campround cleaner than how you found it.
