How It Fits Into the Day

Gentle mornings for busy families.

Need to get to work before camp kicks off? Drop your camper off early at our Seven Peaks basecamp. We provide a "soft start" to the day with playground play, board games, and low-key activities. It’s a relaxed way for kids to wake up, burn some morning energy, and connect with guides before the main adventures begin.

  • Activities: Playground play, art, and reading corner.

  • Cost: $15 per day (Select days at checkout)

The "Sunset" Hangout

Flexible pickup for a stress-free afternoon.

Work day running late? No problem. After the vans return, we keep the fun going at the campus. This isn't just "waiting room" time—it's supervised free play where campers can unwind, work on creative projects in the Studio, or play outdoor games with friends. We provide a healthy snack to keep energy levels up until you arrive.

The Details:

  • Time: 3:00 PM – 5:30 PM (Pickup available anytime)

  • Activities: Studio time, outdoor free play, and group games.

  • Cost: $25 per day (Select days at checkout)
