Founded in 1944, this camp is a defunct camp in Saratoga, California. The camp contains 144 acres (0.583 km²).
The camp had a pool, dining room, multipurpose building, flush toilets, shower building, meeting lodge and many campsites. The site served as a Cub Scout day camp, one of the largest in the United States, serving nearly 3000 Scouts each year.
The camp's last summer of operation was in 1988. The Santa Clara County Council already owned two other camps, and decided to sell this camp to take advantage of rising land values. The camp was sold in 1989, shortly before several buildings were damaged in the Loma Prieta earthquake. The county has not demolished or developed the camp, and has no funds or apparent plans for the area.
