When summer camp season season ends at Tuckahoe, the fun
and Scouting adventure continues all year long! Tuckahoe is
blessed with outstanding facilities that will provide a comfortable
home-away-from-home in fall, winter and spring.
Tuckahoe is now home to eight state-of-the-art, spacious lodges.
Two of our cabins can
accommodate up to 40 persons for sleeping and two can accommodate up to
50 persons, with smaller capacity
facilities also available for units of all sizes. Two of our cabins, the
frontier fort and medieval castle, are designed especially for Cub Scout
packs to utilize with indoor plumbing, heat, restrooms and showers.
Tuckahoe
is also an extremely popular spot to stay for Scouting groups that are
visiting the south central Pennsylvania area to tour the Gettysburg
National Military Park or other local attractions. Year-round camp
facilities are available most weekends from the time summer camp closes in
mid-August until the camp reopens for the summer in early June.
There are weekends when the camp is used for council or district
activities, so your best bet is to check availability by calling the camping
service at the council service center at (717) 843-0901 or (800) 569-5197
(outside York) before submitting a reservation. You can also
check out our
reservations chart on-line. As the web site chart may lag behind
actual reservations by a few days, it is recommended that you call the
council service center before placing any reservation or sending a deposit.
Year-Round
Reservations Schedule
Since completing construction and renovations
at Camp Tuckahoe in 2003, demand for use of our cabin facilities has
dramatically increased. The council has established a reservations
policy that prioritizes use of Cub World facilities by Cub Scout packs as
well as establishing an annual timetable for reservations by in-council,
out-of-council and non-Scouting groups.

reservations policy by clicking here.
