When going to the camp from the Fairfax area, take US 50 West for approximately 38 miles from I-66, turn left on Rt.638, which is on the east side of the Shenandoah River bridge. Go 1.6 miles on Rt. 638 and turn left at the Lions sign pictured below (click on picture No. 1). Note: Route 638 does not connect to I-66.

From the Lions sign, at the gate, go 1.4 miles up the hill to the Springfield Franconia Host Lions Club Pavilion (See first and second pictures below).

The Pavilion area, second picture above, is the site of the annual Youth Camp Picnic. This is the area used for other picnics, meetings and other activities.
The third picture shows the Fire Pit and Flag Pole which is an assembly area and recreation green used by campers at the Pavilion.
The forth picture shows the first view of the
Pavilion you will see when entering the Camp property. The
Pavilion
has a stone fire place and picnic tables (see the third and forth
pictures
below). There is a primitive latrine (outhouse-not pictured)
nearby
for the year round convenience of the campers.
The Pavilion area is great for Day Campers, who
will not be spending the night. The Pavilion is about 1/4 mile down the
hill from the Bath House and the rest of the Camp. It is one of the
original
buildings at the camp, and is maintained by the Springfield Franconia
Host
Lions Club.
