Kinder Spielen
Located by Lake Katrine at Brandenburg, this primitive site and shelter is wonderful for troops who want a more primitive camping experience or for large group day events. It can also be a great additional space to rent if you are renting Hilltop or Sumac. There is plenty of room to pitch tents on the grassy field. The site has a fire ring for cooking, outdoor latrine facilities, flag pole, and an outdoor shelter. The large shelter is wonderful for group events. The canoes are stored in the boathouse, must be reserved separately, and require a rental fee. The lake is ideal for canoeing, but swimming is not permitted.
