Camp Pennyroyal is a beautiful woodland site located 15 miles south of Owensboro, Kentucky. The camp features a brand new lodge, hiking trails, and a peaceful eight-acre lake for swimming, canoeing, and kayaking. The swimming area consists of a well-guarded crib (a shallow aluminum pool built into the lake for safety), roped-off swimming area, diving board, and water slide. Pennyroyal has a lodge for meals, a large arts and crafts shelter, a central shower house for daily showers, a Health Center, and an amphitheatre for skits and campfires.

Bear Creek Aquatic Camp is located on scenic Kentucky Lake, 45 minutes south of Paducah, KY. Our camp is just a boat ride away from Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, a popular destination for our adventure trips, overnights, backpacking and horseback riding programs.

Bear Creek features 200 acres of waterfront property and 2 miles of shoreline, creating the perfect setting for Kentucky’s only Girl Scout aquatic camp. Bear Creek’s bay has a large boating area that is ideal for sailing, windsurfing, kayaking and canoeing. There is also a roped-off swimming area with a fun water slide and a great beach for building sand castles or burying camp counselors!

The property also includes a large meadow for games or a giant slip & slide, central shower house with private stalls and a newly renovated lodge which houses the dining hall, kitchen and health center.
