Daniel Boone is one of the finest Scout Camps I have ever seen. The land is beautiful, the facilities are top notch, and the staff are amazing. For years before I came here I had heard Scouts speaking highly of their Summer Camp experiences here, and now that I have come here to be Shotgun Range Dir...

Be forewarned - there are NO BATHROOMS at the Cold Mountain Trailhead. Stop and buy gas or groceries in Bethel and use the restroom there. The Scout camp has some Latrines across the bridge. Consider donating a dollar to the Campmaster or ranger on your way in if you choose to use them. They had to ...

Boys did High Adventure Backpacking-2 different treks. They loved it! Amazing views with gorgeous mountain landscapes to walk through on Joyce Kilmer Trail, and beautiful terrain with breathtaking waterfalls on Panther town Trek-which one waterfall you can walk behind it (like in The Last of the M...

Camp Daniel Boone is more than a scout camp, it's a life experience like no other. The high adventure programs cater to a range of thrill-seekers and are hosted by the most professional staff I've come to know over my scouting career. When you are at CDB - you become family. Beautiful environment in...

The camp was mostly clean and organized and a lot of fun. The classes were kind of far apart but if you strategically make your schedule it will all work out. Lake Allan is great "warm" lake that you can go fishing in and take the swimming merit badge.

The camp is well advertised. That s why we chose it. But it s not a good camp after all! The location is amazing(not the fact we have to hick big hills everyday). The camp was very in coordinated and organized. Food was awful first few days. It got better for the last few days. Staff are way to chi...

Coming from Florida and the hot summer camps, Camp Daniel Boone is heaven. I'm not gonna' lie, there is quite a bit of hiking just to get to meal time. But, the weather, the views and the activities can't be beat. If you're outside of North Carolina, you need to bring your troop here.

I went on the 2017 Week 2 Summer Camp I am from Troop 219 from Plano,TX

We arrived by the pavilion and it was perfectly fine. Anyway, the food was ok. The Bojangles staff on Wednesday were mean and rude. Tyler was an awesome program director. I recommend this place to people because they have ama...

Im a mountains kinda guy, and Boone is literally perfect. Each campsite has its own bene...

23 years as a Scout leader we supported our local Summer Camp as well as use this camp. Every 2-3 years we would split the troop to give the senior boys a chance at Philmont and the younger boys at Camp Daniel Boone. This camp was the best organized and staffed to allow the boys to earn a pocket fu...

Camp Daniel Boone is beautiful and has sentimental meaning to our family. My father in law was camp ranger for a while and was loved and respected by all. The staff are very hard working and accommodated our family for his memorial service since he passed recently.

I really like this camp. Because of the staff, this camp is very fun and enjoyable, and extremely helpful. Their trading post and snack shack is very organized. The merit badge classes are really fun to attend. I would recommend this a lot.

After showing the guys how to reel in the trout. We cooked at campsite instead of hitting the chow hall. It's was such a great time, we ...

When we went here, everyone at the camp got sick. The Health Department wouldn't let any one leave or come into the camp. The food was not the best as they gave us raw chicken. Also they gave you a very small amount and we were going hungry. Only great thing to say about this camp is Crazy Steve ...

Great program for the kids and good food. Wish they were better about having to port-a-johns cleaned and not smelling so bad. Also supply some cleaning supplies at the camps latrines. Had to "borrow" from main showers and bathrooms.

The camp was okay the tents were fine but there were some cabins that had no door at all and all our FCE were in there and 3 got sick. The food wasn't really that good. The merit badge classes were good but in archery they didn't fit you to a bow and many people failed. The counsler also made someon...

Drive slow. There are youngsters darting across the road from every direction and from behind every bush on each side of the road. Fantastic camp for Scouts. Restrooms, facilities and camping is for registered Scouts only, so plan accordingly. Use the restroom in Bethel or Canton and plan to camp on...

Great camp. So quiet you can hear your toenails growing. Well, that may be exaggerating, but you CAN hear the hair in your Ears growing. One of the better dining halls in our area. All new latrines. Only negative is that the long-range views of Cold Mountain attract drivers with that "it's all about...
