This is Boy Scout Camping Site. There's a three-story wooden bed and there's room for cooking. Children can run around in the mountains and play campfire at night. There is a lake right in front of it, so the scenery is good. It is a place that allows children to experience many camping experiences. The parking space is spacious and quiet. Thank you for making good memories for the kids in Boy Scout.

Our daughter attended her first overnight recently and had so much fun, camp fire, hotdogs and marshmallows with hiking and tenting.
