The Perfect Blend of Western Flair and Classic Camp Fun

Circle F Dude Ranch Camp is an overnight summer camp for boys and girls aged 6–16, with a Leader in Training (LIT) program for 17-year-olds. Campers choose their own activities each day—they can stick with their favorites or try something new, so every camper’s experience feels personal. Our program honors individual interests and comfort levels, helping kids build confidence and grow at a pace that feels right for them.

Our program includes:

  • Skill Based Activities: Structured instruction and skill progression

  • Free Choice Activities: Flexible options based on each child’s interests

  • Daily Choice: Campers can focus on one activity or change it up daily

  • Exceptional Supervision:

  • 3:1 total camper to staff ratio

Life at Camp

At Circle F Dude Ranch Camp, campers share the full camp experience together while staying in designated cabin areas on separate sides of camp for boys and girls. Campers are grouped by age within each area, creating a setup that feels comfortable, familiar, and just right for every stage.

Camp runs as one big community, with select activities organized by age to keep things fun and engaging for all.
